Dräger Polytron TX
The Dräger Polytron TX is an explosion proof gas detector for continuous monitoring of toxic gases and oxygen in ambient air. Non-intrusive calibration and maintenance means no special area permits are required to perform routine tasks.
Product features
- Easy to install
- The enclosure provides two mounting holes. For easy wiring, bezel and electronics are one unit, and can be pulled out. The field cable is fed through a sealed conduit, then terminated in a pluggable connector on the printed circuit board.
- One man calibration
- All setup and maintenance is performed without opening the transmitter or declassifying the hazardous area. Tapping a magnetic wand at the three buttons through the window of the instrument gives full access to the menu and the calibration procedure. Eliminating the need for an additional handheld terminal.
- DrägerSensor technology
- The large DragerSensor size gives them their renowned long life. The built-in sensor data memory containing all the relevant gas and calibration information, together with on board temperature and pressure compensation gives the DragerSensor its unsurpassed measurement performance. This also allows the Polytron TX to accept pre-calibrated sensors, with minimal operator intervention, the Dräger Polytron TX is a virtually maintenance free transmitter.

System Components
Faster response – higher accuracy – greater stability – longer life. Dräger electrochemical sensors offer all these benefits. The robust and long-life sensors are used for the selective measurement of the smallest concentrations of toxic gases and oxygen in ambient air.
Tried and tested thousands of times and infinitely flexible. The modular Regard control system can be individually adapted to any monitoring task. Suitable for SIL 2 systems, the Regard system is also ATEX approved, and meets EMC directive standards.
The Regard 3900 is a standalone, autonomous control system for up to 16 gas detectors. It is fully configurable and monitors the concentration of toxic gases, oxygen and combustible gases and vapours.
Robust, reliable and very cost effective. The compact Regard-1 is a complete standalone system for the control of a single gas detector; suitable for monitors of toxic gases, oxygen, combustible gases and vapours.

Literature
List of detectable gases and vapours.
For over 70 years, Dräger has been one of the technology leaders in gas detection.
Safety Instrumented Systems are used to reduce the risk for the protection of people, plants, and environment.
Explosion hazards mostly arise from flammable gases and vapours. Instead of avoiding their ignition by explosion protection measures it may be preferable to detect them before they become ignitable.
