Incus Ultrasonic Gas Leak Detector Product Data Sheet Incus Ultrasonic Gas Leak Detector Wide Area Coverage for Pressurized Gas Leaks The Incus is an advanced gas leak detector that uses four sensitive acoustic sensors to monitor wide areas for the ultrasound generated from pressurized gas releases. Ideally suited for monitoring ventilated outdoor applications, the Incus has been engineered to withstand extreme conditions. Detection is unaffected by inclement weather, wind, leak direction, or gas dilution, with fast speed of response. Instantaneous response to all gas leaks (LEL or ppm) Operates in extreme temperatures Automated electronic self-test offers failsafe operation Widest area of coverage through four independent sensors 4–20 mA analog or stepped, “multi-drop” RS485 digital interface, and HART® communication protocol Certified worldwide for hazardous locations Innovative mapping tool helps optimize coverage for a target risk Programmable time delays screen intermittent unwanted alarm sources Four Multi-Directional Sensor Heads Quad sensing heads provide the widest overall detection range available on the market. The sensing heads are independent with the detector output being based on the highest ultrasound measured by any one head. If one or more sensing heads fails complete coverage is not lost. Field-proven Ultrasonic Sensor Principle Incus responds to the ultrasound produced by pressurized gas releases, a technology proven with hundreds of detectors installed worldwide. Sealed Sensor Housing Piezoceramic sensor heads have no moving parts and can therefore be completely sealed against moisture, corrosive atmospheres, and industrial contaminants. Sensor Design - They Just Keep Working Each sensor is completely free of moving parts and will not age, drift, and never need replacing under normal operating conditions. Maintenance free protection with proven reliability. Continuous Self-test Ensures Instrument Health Electronic self-test checks the detector every 320 ms by sending an amplitude signal through the sensing circuitry. The sensor suffers no loss of detection while in test mode in contrast to those based on diaphragm microphones. Built for Extreme Conditions The Incus is designed to operate at -40 °C to +85 °C and may be supplied for monitoring areas of regard at -55 °C. Corrosion resistant stainless steel housing is standard, units are ingress rated to IP66/67 or NEMA Type 4X.

Wide Area Explosive Fire IGNITION IGNITION IGNITION Incus Ultrasonic Gas Leak Detector Deep Pool Fuel Fire Ultrasonic Gas Leak Detection Ultrasonic Detection Overview Ultrasonic (acoustic) gas leak detection technology functions through the constant monitoring of wide areas by advanced acoustic sensors specially tuned to process ultrasound emitted from pressurized gas leaks. Ultrasonic gas leak detectors do not have to wait until a hazardous gas concentration has accumulated or the gas cloud made physical contact with a sensor. In addition, the response is instantaneous for all gas types...
