General Information
CTX300 gas detectors are designed to measure toxic gases or vapors and oxygen.
With robust materials, a specifically-adapted design, appropriate accessories,
stainless bolts and a polyamide case (IP54), CTX 300detectors are designed to
withstand the roughest conditions.

Installing the detectors
Layout
While the measuring sensor is always located on the underside of the detector, several
factors determine where the detector should be located:
■ If the gas being measured is lighter than the air, place the detector near the ceiling.
■ If the gas is heavier than the air (CO
close to the floor.
■ Near offtake points.
■ Generally, in locations where gas may accumulate, taking into consideration both:
- The effects of temperature;
- The outside winds direction.
and Freons, for example) place the detector
2
Determining the best sensor location
Factors to consider when determining the best placement for the detector are:
■ Potential sources for vapor and gas emissions.
■ Characteristics of gases and vapors (density).
■ Air circulation:
- Inside: mechanical or natural ventilation.
- Outside: wind direction and velocity.
■ Effects of temperature.
■ Local constraints (air flow, water splash, etc.).
Detectors should always be located in an easily accessible location for maintenance
purposes.
Special accessories may be necessary to protect the equipment against any liquid
projectiles, dust, direct sunlight or low temperatures in the area.
