Q5

Toxic & Combustible Sensor

The Q5 Series is a microprocessor based “smart” gas transmitter. It is paired with either an
electrochemical gas sensor for toxic gases, or a catalytic bead sensor for combustible gases.
Pre-calibrated sensors can be purchased and installed by the user, thereby reducing calibration costs
and minimizing downtime. The user can select from numerous display options, including relay status,
time, TWA, STEL, concentration, or nothing at all. All programming and calibration is nonproprietary
and is accessed through a user selectable password which protects system integrity.
