Plug-N-Play Ease

E3Point’s plug-n-play sensor is factory

calibrated and works out of the box. Upon
installation, E3Point automatically congures
for quick operation. You benet from easier
installation and maintenance, and greater
adaptability to changing building
and safety requirements.

Reex® Keeps You Safer

Only Honeywell’s patented Reex® technology
adds this extra degree of precision and diligence
to sensor monitoring to make doubly sure you’re
safe. Reex bounces electrical signals into the

E3Point electrochemical sensor cell at regular

intervals, a form of electronic bump testing and
continuous monitoring of cell response.

Flexible Applications

E3Point integrates easily with your building’s analog or digital

infrastructure as a standalone unit or network addressable
device. Here are ve installation examples to make E3Point
work for you.

E3Point Standalone Single-Sensor Operation

A low-cost application for buildings with
minimal gas monitoring requirements typical
of a small facility. Offers easy installation,
commissioning and operaton. Two on-board
relays can activate fan or strobe.

E3Point Standalone Dual-Gas Sensor Operation

Remote

Unit

Economical application adds
option of a second (remote) sensor
for dual gas monitoring. Two
on-board relays can activate
ventilation or strobes.

E

Up to 3 x 32 units

Supports Modbus protocol to daisy-chain E3Point detectors, providing up
to 96 points of monitoring on a serial bus. Excellent option for controller­based (VA301C) installations common in larger applications. A relay output
is provided as an option for activating ventilation directly (e.g. when fan is
located in close proximity to detector).

E3Point/BACnet (MS-TP) Conguration

BAS

Wireless Network

301CW & 301W

E3Point offers a perfect solution for applications that require a

hybrid wireless/wired system. In this conguration, E3Point outputs signals
to a controller (301CW) that also accepts signals from a wireless gas
detector (301W). This scheme offers great exibility and installation cost
savings for retrot projects. It easily handles difcult installation challenges,
such as those posed by obstructions. A relay output is provided when it
is desirable to activate fan/ventilation directly (e.g. when fan is located in
close proximity to detector).

301CW & 301W

E3Point outputs directly to BACnet or other BAS. Alarms, strobes and

horns are activated through BAS with link to DCV/HVAC controls. This
system design supports new and retrot installations for large buildings,
and can couple with a controller to effectively integrate wired and wireless
system components. A relay output is provided as an option for activating
ventilation directly (e.g. when fan is located in close proximity to detector).
