Product catalog summary
Overview
The FALCO and FALCO TAC are advanced fixed photoionization detectors (PIDs) designed by ION Science for detecting volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in extreme conditions. They feature Typhoon Technology to prevent sensor condensation and an anti-contamination design for maintenance-free operation. The patented Fence Electrode Technology ensures accurate performance across all humidity levels.
Extreme Conditions
These detectors are specifically engineered for harsh weather, with an ingress protection rating of IP65. The built-in Typhoon Technology prevents condensation within the PID sensor, ensuring reliable operation in extreme environments.
Ultimate Safety
The FALCO series offers best-in-class performance with a patented fence electrode, providing accurate results over all humidity levels. The multi-colored status display is visible from 20 meters in direct sunlight, and the high visibility OLED display enhances safety.
Ease of Maintenance & Low Cost of Ownership
The FALCO detectors are designed for easy maintenance with a unique 5 magnetic button interface, eliminating the need for tools or pump replacement. They feature a 10,000-hour lamp life and easy electrode stack replacement, reducing ownership costs.
Applications
The FALCO and FALCO TAC are suitable for various applications, including safety, industrial hygiene, fugitive emissions, air quality monitoring, and process control in environments like refineries and petrochemical facilities.
Technical Specifications
The detectors operate within a temperature range of -40°C to 50°C and support 0-100% RH with condensing humidity. They offer four detection ranges and dual certification for hazardous environments. The devices are powered by 12 to 40 Vdc and have a typical power consumption of 2 W.
Certification
The FALCO series is certified under ATEX II 2G db ib IIC T4 Gb and UL/CSA Class 1, Div 1 Groups ABCD T4, ensuring compliance with international safety standards.
Customer Feedback
The FALCO VOC monitor has been recommended by industry leaders for its robustness and reliability, as evidenced by extensive performance tests conducted in large refineries.
