Description

The SEC Millennium hydrocarbon detector is designed to be used as an upgrade in the same applications where catalytic bead sensors have been applied. The Millennium is a complete self contained optical hydrocarbon gas detector. The sensing and reference elements are self-compensating for optical integrity and other signal inhibitors. The industry standard 4-20 mA analog output provides remote alarm, fault and calibration signals.

  • Drilling and production platforms
  • Fuel loading facilities
  • Oil well logging
  • LNG/LPG processing and storage facilities
  • Gas turbines
  • Chemical plants
  • Compressor stations
  • Wastewater treatment facilities
  • Transportation facilities

Features

  • Reliable infrared sensing technology
  • Virtually maintenance free
  • Low cost of ownership, over five years operating life
  • Immune to poisoning and etching
  • Designed for harsh environments
  • Explosion proof
  • Fast response time
  • Rugged stainless steel construction
  • Smart calibration
  • Patented self compensating optical bench and no moving parts
  • Heated optical chamber
  • Low power consumption
  • Operates in constant hydrocarbon background and anaerobic atmosphere
  • Fault indications for all failure states
  • Routine calibrations are not required
  • 4-20 mA output
  • 0 to 100% LFL detection range
  • Can be coupled with SEC 3100 transmitter for network applications
  • RS-485 communication link
  • Digital display optional
