MicroSafe 500 and 600 Series

Detcon MicroSafe 500 & 600 Series Intelligent Fixed Gas Detectors

The Detcon MicroSafe 500 and 600 Series gas detectors feature a non-intrusive operator interface. Calibration and programming instructions appear in simple intuitive and sequential script on a 16-character backlit display. The transmitter design incorporates extensive fault diagnostics with each condition conveniently identified on the transmitter display.

The 500 Series comes standard with a linear 4-20 mA output, one-man remote calibration, self-adjusting zero and span, and LED indicators for fault and calibration status.

The 600 Series includes the same features as the 500 with the addition of 3 alarm relays and an RS-485 serial communications port.
