The Compur Statox 501 IR LC consists of an EEx e (enhanced safety) terminal box and a sensor with integrated electronics. This sensor operates at the same supply voltage as a catalytic sensor. Its output signal is also identical to the signal of a catalytic sensor. All the advantages of an infrared gas detector are now available for nearly the same price as a catalytic sensor and existing gas detection systems can now be upgraded without replacing the existing hardware.
Of course the miniaturised chip inside the sensor cannot provide the same powerful electronics and software package as a high-end instrument, but however the Compur Statox 501 IR LC features the most important advantages of an infrared system.
