In industries where gas detection is paramount for safety and operational efficiency, having reliable and accurate monitoring systems is crucial. The B12 Wet Gas System offers a robust solution for detecting gas concentrations, particularly in environments where gas streams may be saturated with water vapor. In this blog post, we’ll delve into the features, options, and specifications of the B12 Wet Gas System, highlighting its versatility and importance in various industrial settings.
Understanding the B12 Wet Gas System
The B12 Wet Gas System comprises a loop-powered 2-wire transmitter and a corrosion-resistant sensor designed to operate efficiently even at 100% relative humidity (RH). This system is ideal for installations in wet scrubber outlets or other gas streams prone to water vapor saturation. The B12 sensor can be directly inserted into vent stacks or used in a flow cell if the sample can be pumped to the sensor, providing flexibility in installation.
Options and Configurations
The B12 system offers several options to cater to specific application requirements:
- Sensor Module: Users can choose the gas detection required for their application, with each sensor capable of being calibrated for custom ranges. The standard range can be customized for an additional fee.
- Display, Enclosure & Transmitter: Options include a NEMA 4X enclosure suitable for many environments, an explosion-proof enclosure made of galvanized steel, or a NEMA 4X enclosure with an LCD display for gas concentration visualization.
Specifications and Performance
The B12 Wet Gas System boasts impressive specifications and performance characteristics:
- Accuracy: Generally ±5% of value, limited by available calibration gas accuracy
- Output: Loop-powered 4-20 mA with a maximum resistance of 675 ohms at 24 VDC
- Power: Operates on 12-28 VDC, ensuring compatibility with various power sources
- Enclosure: NEMA 4X polystyrene, with an explosion-proof cast iron option available for hazardous environments
- Sensor Range: Offers a range of detection options for gases such as chlorine, bromine, chlorine dioxide, ozone, hydrogen chloride, hydrogen fluoride, hydrogen bromide, and hydrogen.
