This product has been discontinued and is no longer available. In many cases we can still service and calibrate it. Talk to our team about spares or alternatives.

The SafEye 200 Series is a self-contained, fast-response optical open-path gas detector that detects combustible gases below the lower explosion limit over a line of sight of up to 140 m.

KEY BENEFITS

  •   Detects combustible gases below the LEL over up to 140 m
  •   Proven on offshore platforms, FPSOs and refineries worldwide
  •   One system replaces 5 to 20 point gas detectors
  •   Operational with up to 90% signal obscuration
  •   Fast, adjustable flash-rate response

Self-Contained Open-Path Combustible Gas Detection

The SafEye 200 Series detects combustible gases at concentrations lower than the lower explosion limit (LEL) over a line of sight of up to 140 m (460 ft). It is a preferred system for offshore oil companies because it is immune to false alarms caused by partial blockage, extreme weather and reflected sunlight, flame and other black-body radiation.

The system remains fully functional in heavy fog, rain and snow that obscures up to 90% of the signal. In a North Sea installation tested over six harsh winter months of dense fog, snow and rain, the SafEye 200 was fully operational at all times.

Its unique flash source delivers a powerful radiation signal for less than one millisecond at pre-selected intervals, responding only to fast changes in gas concentration. Special optics give a misalignment tolerance of plus or minus one degree in all directions, and the detector is not subject to poisoning.

It detects combustible gases at concentrations lower than the lower explosion limit (LEL) over a line of sight of up to 140 m.

Yes. The SafEye 200 remains fully functional even when heavy fog, rain or snow obscures up to 90% of the signal.

One system can replace from 5 to 20 point gas detectors in a straight line of sight of up to 140 m.

Yes. It is immune to false alarms caused by partial blockage, extreme weather and direct or reflected sunlight, flame and other black-body radiation sources.

It provides standard 4-20 mA output or RS-485 output allowing networking of up to 64 detectors to a central monitoring or PC system.
