United Electric Controls’ Vanguard WirelessHART gas detector is designed to maximize toxic or explosive gas detection points but eliminates the need for costly and fixed wiring. Vanguard field-interchangeable gas sensor modules detect and record hydrogen sulfide (H2S) or methane (CH4) gas in parts per million (PPM) or percent of lower explosive limits (LELs) respectively, along with network and battery status. WirelessHART 7.2 technology carries signals to local 128 x 64 pixel digital displays or other IEC 62591 compatible connections—all of which integrate seamlessly with existing supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) or asset management (AMS) systems. It can be used in wireless remote and local gas detection applications such as oil and gas production facilities.
