2. Operating Temperature from -40°C to 50°C
The SR-Series transmitter is built to withstand severe environmental conditions, with an operating temperature range varying from -40°C to 50°C. This makes it perfect for use in industrial environments where extreme temperatures are a frequent condition. Whether it's low-temperature refrigeration systems or warmer environments, the device maintains stable and reliable performance.
3. IP65 Protection Rating
With an IP65 protection rating, the Cool Guardian transmitter is dust-resistant and protected against water jets. This makes it particularly suitable for installation in industrial environments, where protection against external agents such as dust and humidity is crucial to ensure the device's longevity and proper functioning.
4. Configurable Relay Outputs
The Cool Guardian SR-Series transmitter is equipped with three configurable relay outputs, which can be used to manage external loads, such as audible and visual alarms, fans, or other safety devices. The ability to configure these relays according to specific needs allows for personalized and optimized management of the refrigerant gas monitoring system.
5. Configurable Analog Output
The analog output of the transmitter offers various configuration options, including 4-20mA, 0-5V, 0-10V, 1-5V, 2-10V, which can be easily set via the Seitron Guard App. This allows for great versatility in integrating the device into industrial automation systems, enabling real-time monitoring of gas levels with unparalleled accuracy.
6. Modbus® Output via RS485
Another advanced feature of the SR-Series transmitter is the Modbus® output via RS485, which supports the Modbus® RTU protocol. This allows the device to be connected to a centralized monitoring and control network, facilitating communication between up to 32 devices simultaneously. The ability to integrate the Cool Guardian into existing automation systems makes it even more flexible and easy to implement.
7. Calibration and Bump Test via Seitron Guard App
Thanks to the Seitron Guard App, users can perform calibration and bump test operations quickly and easily. This feature is particularly useful for ensuring that the transmitter continues to operate with high precision over time, ensuring compliance with safety regulations and improving operational efficiency.
8. Integrated Audible and Visual Alarm
The Cool Guardian transmitter is equipped with an integrated audible and visual alarm, which offers an additional safety measure. This alarm triggers immediately when dangerous levels of refrigerant gas are detected, allowing for rapid intervention by operators. The combination of visual and audible alarms is fundamental to ensure a timely response in industrial environments.
