General Description:

The Nemoto NCP-180 is a catalytic (pellistor) type flammable gas sensor supplied as a matched pair of elements mounted on TO4 size headers and protected by a metal can.  The sensor detects and measures the presence of flammable gases and vapours in air, in the range 0-100% of the Lower Explosive Limit (LEL) of the gas or vapour being measured.

​

Designed as a sensing platform for use in fixed flammable gas detection systems, the NCP-180 exhibits excellent long term zero and sensitivity stability and a high level of resistance to catalytic poisons. The device is compatible with a wide range of commercially available Gas Detection Systems and remote flammable gas detection heads.

​

  •        Measures flammability directly

  •        Highly resistant to Catalyst poisons

  •        Resistant to shocks and vibration

  •        Effectively Linear output to 100%LEL

  •        Specific to flammable  gases

  •        Unaffected by Humidity

  •        Very Simple circuitry

  •        Very Low Long term drift
