Apex takes the best elements of gas detection
design and combining them into one unit.
Apex provides the highest performance,
installation flexibility, a wide range of
accessories and a choice of communication
outputs. All this is provided in a package
that is easy to install, operate and maintain.

Typical applications include:

Petrochemical

Exploration drilling rigs, production platforms,
FPSOs, oil and gas terminals, chemical plants,
oil and gas tankers

Heavy Industrial

Steel manufacture, ship building

Manufacturing

Automotive, glass and ceramics, aerospace,
printing and coating, cosmetics

Pharmaceutical

Research labs, solvent storage areas, process
areas, demineralisation plants

Transmitter

The robust hazardous area approved Apex
transmitter housing and mounting bracket is
made from 316 Stainless Steel. It has a large
backlit LCD display, simple 4 button operation,
3 fully configurable relay outputs and selectable
sink, source or isolated 4-20mA signal.
The sensor and transmitter is common for all
gas types.

Sensor

The Apex Sensor can be mounted directly on
the transmitter or remotely up to 100m away.
The same sensor is used for both catalytic and
electrochemical type sensor cartridges.

Sensor

Smart Cartridge

Smart cartridge

The sensor can be fitted with a choice of over
40 toxic gas ranges and wide range of detectable
flammable gases. Each cartridge is pre-calibrated
and simply plugs into the sensor. The Intrinsically
Safe design allows cartridges to be changed with
the unit under power. The transmitter recognises
a newly fitted sensor cartridge and automatically
reads all the configuration information from it.
