General Description:
The Nemoto NCP-300 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-300 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.
