Duran Electronica STANDGAS HC

Duran Electronica STANDGAS HC Gas Detector

Product Overview

The Duran Electronica STANDGAS HC is a standalone explosive gas detector that uses catalytic (pellistor) sensor technology to detect a range of gases, including methane, butane, propane, and hydrogen. With a detection range of 0 to 100% LEL (Lower Explosive Limit), this device provides reliable gas detection in environments at risk of explosive gas accumulation. It is highly resistant to interference from silicone vapors (HDMS), ensuring stable performance.

Designed for independent operation, the detector can function without a central control panel and is available in a special version that features three programmable relay outputs for enhanced control and safety integration.

Features

• Independent operation, no control panel required

• Visual indicators for system status and sensor faults

• Jumper-selectable gas type detection

• Programmable alarm relay behavior, with two to three alarm levels depending on model

• Adjustable alarm activation delay (fixed in special version)

• High durability with IP65-rated enclosure

• Resistant to silicone vapor interference

• Designed for safety-critical areas
