Xgard Bright

Description

Crowcon Xgard Bright  Gas Detector General Features

Equipped with MPS™ technology that eliminates the risk of poisoning and the need for calibration, Xgard Bright is a next-generation multi-gas detection technology.

This fixed detector offers flammable and toxic gas detection and oxygen monitoring features, as well as low installation costs and ease of use.

Xgard Bright is a versatile detector that provides flammable and toxic gas detection and oxygen monitoring, ensuring ease of use and low installation costs.

Choose from durable sensor options suitable for your needs; for example, MPS (10+ years), Long-life O2 ( 5 years) and IR sensors (10+ years) minimize operational costs by eliminating the need for frequent sensor replacements.

The 4-wire addressable application that reduces installation costs significantly decreases wiring requirements. The large OLED display allows users to easily operate the Xgard Bright without needing to open the enclosure during installation, calibration, and routine maintenance.

Xgard Bright, which provides standard analog 4-20mA and RS-485 Modbus signals, comes standard with Alarm and Fault relays and optional HART communication.
