General Description:
The Nemoto NCP-180-P is a new low cost catalytic flammable gas sensor, for the detection of potentially exposive concentrations of all flammable gases in air. The sensor has been especially designed for use in Automated Cash Teller Machines (ATMs), to detect the ingress of Methane, Acetylene, LPG and other flammable gases for security (antitheft) purposes, but may also be used in a wide range of other applications.
The sensor is a low-cost twin header design, with the compensator element sealed from the atmosphere. This results in a stable and strong response to Acetylene gas, with the compensator protected against interference by acetylene, whilst maintaining equally strong and stable responses to many other flammable gases and vapours which may be used by criminals to attack ATMs
