Trigard
The TRIGARD Gas Monitoring System is an area monitor that detects chlorine, sulfur dioxide and other toxic and combustible gases. The adjustable-range unit also detects oxygen deficiency and enrichment. AC or DC powered, the system features a LCD screen and push-button calibration. The unit offers multiple sensor mounting options. The sensor disconnect-underpower feature allows all sensors to be replaced in hazardous areas without area declassification, while interchangeable smart sensors are pre-calibrated for installation right out of the box.
