The Pointwatch Eclipse

®

is provided with field-selectable “standard gas” signal processing program settings for linear

measurement of methane, propane, ethylene, and butane gases. This means that the Eclipse is capable of providing

an analog signal output that is directly proportional to the % LFL concentration for these gases, provided the proper

gas setting has been selected, and the Eclipse has been calibrated with the proper calibration gas type. The Eclipse

is performance certified for detection of methane, propane, ethylene, or butane, and is shipped from the factory

calibrated and set for the customer’s choice of one of these gases. Digital communication (such as HART) is required

to confirm the current setting and change it if required. In addition to the gases listed above, the Eclipse is capable of

detecting and measuring many other hydrocarbon gases and vapors, with settings provided for gases such as ethane

and propylene. For detection of other commonly encountered gases where specific gas settings are not provided, one

of the standard settings will usually suffice. Please consult the factory for details.
