NH3monitoringRS-485

What is the ECtox Gas Sensing Device? The ECtox Ammonia Sensing Device contains an EC Sense solid electrolyte NH3 gas sensor, featuring long lifetime, robustness and selectivity. Moreover, the ECtox Sensing Device delivers a high-precision gas detection technology. ECtox was especially developed to withstand an environment with continuously high amounts of gas, without losing its long lifetime or robustness. Why would I use the ECtox Gas Sensing Device? The higher the ammonia concentration surrounding normal sensors, the faster the sensor will be drained. Therefore, the sensor lifetime will deteriorate rapidly and more maintenance will be needed. In addition, ECtox’s big advantage, while continuously working with a high ammonia concentration, is its long lifetime. Based on a specific electrochemical reaction and in combination with a sample pump the device measures ammonia concentrations in a wide range. Furthermore, a pump effortlessly transports the gas to the sensor without the need to calibrate. It creates a signal peak, which is proportional to the Ammonia concentration in the measuring gas. The speed of diffusion and convection is usually slow or depends on the environment, temperature and different concentrations, which influence the speed of molecular motion. The ECtox sampling system however is perfect for different densities. The output signal, RS485 (Modbus), will easily connect with a gas detector, DCS, PLC or wireless systems. ECtox fulfills a variety of applications: The Sensor Device can be used for the following three main applications:
