• Electrochemical - We've dedicated a team of research scientist to develop some of the most advanced, gas specific sensors available today. Our RockSolid® sensor technology continues to lead the industry in high performance gas detection. Also see: What You Should Know about Electrochemical Sensors.pdf (requires Adobe Acrobat.

• Infrared - With Scott Health & Safety's IR sensor technology, a large selection of gas specific curves can be selected to measure the combustible gas present in your facility. Our proprietary sensors are engineered to provide long, stable operation in some of the toughest environments


• Papertape - Our colormetric papertape technology is used to accurately measure down to part per billion levels and is offered in fixed, portable, and disposable monitoring products. Colormetric measurment provides a safe, effective method for measuring acutely toxic gases such as isocyanates, hydrazine, hydride, and acid gases.


• Catalytic Bead - Our quality control and advanced engineering has produced one of the most efficient, stable, catalytic beads in production today. Its efficient design has made it a popular choice in thousands of installations worldwide.

Sometimes, detecting the toxic gas compounds used within process critical applications can pose a special challenge. The absolute need for a detection method that produces fast, reliable response to the target gas is critical for a safe and profitable operation.

For this reason Scott Health & Safety has developed a proprietary line of high performance RockSolid sensors that are fundamentally different than any typical electrochemical sensor found on the market today. RockSolid sensor use an entirely different physical and chemical make up. The result - an extraordinary "high performance sensor that provides extremely low zero drift, faster speed of response and recovery time, greater specificity to the target gas, and the lowest level of reliable gas detection available from any electrochemical sensor available.

Features:

Extremely Low Zero Drift - Temperature and humidity has little effect on ROCK SOLID®.
Very High Gas Specificity - ROCK SOLID® exhibits lower interference to other gases than conventional gas sensors.
Fastest Speed of Response
Fastest Recovery Time

• 4-20 ma from two, three or four wire transmitters
• Direct output from a catalytic bead sensor
• RS-485 from a Scott Health & Safety MODBUS transmitter

Standard with the Sentinel 16 is the ability to retransmit a RS-485 MODBUS RTU signal in both master and slave configurations. This allows up to 128 Sentinel 16’s to be multi-dropped onto a single data highway for interrogation by another MODBUS master. They may also be cascaded by connecting one unit’s master port to another’s slave port. In addition, optional 4-20ma output boards allow communication with remote PLC’s, DCS’, or other control devices.
