Product Information
The Ultima XIR Gas Monitor is a microprocessor-based, infrared point gas detector for continuous monitoring of combustible gases and vapors. Designed around a rugged, 316 stainless steel enclosure, the Ultima XIR Monitor has multiple entries for maximum flexibility.

The Ultima XIR Monitor operation is based on dual-wavelength, heated-optics technology, providing definitive compensation for temperature, humidity and aging effects. The IR technology offers excellent long-term stability, eliminates the need for frequent calibrations and reduces overall cost of ownership.

Features:
- DuraSource Technology offers improved IR sensor life.
- Field-selectable algorithms for a variety of hydrocarbon-based gases.
- LCD display with scrolling messages and LEDs.
- Single-board design for ultimate reliability and easy, no-tool servicing.
- 4-20mA, HART and ModBus (X3) output.
- Optional "quick-check" LEDs for increased product visibility.
- “Fail to Safety” operation.

Benefits:
- No-gas calibration. A zero adjustment is all that is required for full calibration.
- Extremely fast speed of response.
- Designed without a sintered disk for optimum performance in the harsh, offshore environment.
- Operates over extended temperature ranges.
- Immune to poisoning.
- Sensor life not reduced by exposure to gas.
- Automatic compensation for humidity and temperature changes.
- Operates in high-gas and low-oxygen environments.
