The new Open Path Gas Detection – the Quasar 900 Series has recently received SIL2 approval from TUV, proving the leading detector’s reliability.
The TUV SIL2 approval joins the vast range of approvals, including ATEX, IECEx and FM for use in hazardous areas and for performance. The New SafEye Quasar 900 is an open path detection system, which provides continuous monitoring for combustible hydrocarbon gases.
It employs “spectral fingerprint” analysis of the atmosphere using the Differential Optical Absorption Spectroscopy (DOAS) technique. The Quasar 900 consists of a Xenon Flash infrared transmitter and infrared receiver, which can be separated over a line of sight from 23ft (7m) up to 660ft (200m) in extremely harsh environments where dust, fog, rain, snow or vibration can cause a high reduction of signal. Typical uses are offshore oil drilling platforms, large tank storage farms etc.
