GS01 Hydrocarbon IR Detector

GasSecure offers the world’s first truly wireless IR gas detector for demanding industrial applications. The GS01 is used to detect the presence of hydrocarbon gases and warn operators of the risk of fire or explosion. Its ultra-low power design and small integrated battery pack enables up to two years of continuous operation.* Customers have seen up to 60 – 80% savings on total project costs because of dramatically reduced installation cost and time. The wireless communication is based on the open ISA100 Wireless™ standard – which means simplified integration with other commercially available field wireless devices.

Adding capacity or upgrading facilities often entails expansion or modernization of existing gas detection systems. Wireless is a perfect solution since it can be integrated into legacy systems without the need to install new or additional cabling and increase plant uptime.

The GS01 is proven in the field to be a flexible and cost efficient solution for plant expansions, revamps, upgrades and new greenfield projects. Just some of the applications include:

Infrared sensor technology is taken to the next level using patented MEMS (Micro Electromechanical System) optical filters. The device filters, focuses and switches light continuously, thereby establishing the gas and reference measurement. GS01 technology achieves fast and ultra-low power operation with life-long zero point stability. The innovative hardware design is supported by GasSecure’s patented SafeWireless™ communication system that meets the requirements of reliability, fast response times, availability and power efficiency – all with full control of network traffic.
