Crowcon Cirrus Infrared C02 and Combustible Gas Detector

Cirrus Infrared, Fixed Point, Dual Wavelength Flammable Gas Detector Provides Simple Installation, Ultimate Flexibility and Proven Stability...

Crowcon Cirrus gives customers total reliability ensuring accurate and safe gas detection. Cirrus is a fixed point, dual beam, dual detector that provides factory calibration lasting for 5 full years. Crowcon Cirrus Offers connection flexibility with both 4-20 mA and RS485 outputs and addressable gas detectors can be looped together via the Modbus serial link giving the user interrogation and remote control capability.


Rugged, Reliable and Reasonable...


This third generation gas detection instrument not only comes with a lifetime factory calibration, but if also covered by a comprehensive 5 year warranty.  Cirrus's rugged, stainless steel case is designed for continuous operation in the harshest environments.  The reliable Cirrus is certified flameproof and provides users the accuracy and speed of response that are essential to safe gas monitoring.


Easy installation...


The unique technology of Cirrus simplifies both gas detection instrument installation and system changes.  During installation the docking station is sited and wired up with the detector head being fitted later during commissioning.  Depending upon the system  configuration, future configuration changes can be made by simply connecting a PC to the control room.   Cirrus features no moving parts, dual wavelength, extensive fault monitoring  and provides easy field reconfiguration.

Features...


  • Cirrus does not require zero or gas span calibration
  • Optical system functions up to 90% obscuration
  • Crowcon's technologically advanced "Fuzzy Optics" help increase accuracy and reduce zero drift
  • Meets Ingress Protection standards of IP66(jets of water) IP67(submersion)
  • Modbus RS485 serial link
  • 40 gas calibrations available plus C02
  • Can interface with any standard control system or combinations of systems
  • MIL Handbook 217f/2/12/91 gives Cirrus a MTFB (Mean Time Before Failure) of 8.6 years, including IR source
  • Can be fitted with automatic drop-in filter, eliminating manual or local functioning testing

Cirrus' durable design and innovative features make it particularly suitable for the harsh environments of offshore applications as arduous conditions can cause difficulties for the traditional pellistor method.  Cirrus is manufactured by Crowcon, a worldwide leader in gas leak detection equipment for over 35 years.  Crowcon products offer the customer reliable, sophisticated protection with easy, user friendly operation.

Cirrus can interface with any standard control system, or combination of systems, new or old.
