3.4.5 Remote Mounting Applications

Some sensor mounting applications require that the gas sensor head be remotely mounted away from the sensor trans-

mitter. This is usually true in instances where the gas sensor head must be mounted in a location that is diff icult to

access. Such a location creates problems for maintenance and calibration activities. Detcon provides the Model Series

400IS in a remote-mount conf iguration in which the sensor and the transmitter are provided in their own condulet

housing and are interfaced together with a four conductor cable. Reference f igure 4 for wiring diagram.
