Programmable Explosion Detection System

SmartDS Dynamic Explosion Detection is designed to provide high-speed detection of an incipient explosion with the highest level of false alarm immunity available for active explosion protection solutions.

The detection system includes two primary components, the MEX-3 detector and its associated FAB-4 field programmable connection box. The SmartDS detection system is programmable to accommodate a wide range of hazard and process conditions, including vacuum and positive pressure applications. The SmartDS system has the ability to analyze rate of pressure rise and to differentiate this from non-explosion pressure excursions.

Dual sensors are used to increase the level of false alarm immunity. The SmartDS system features include a history buffer for event recording, hygienic design, stainless steel body for demanding process environments, and ATEX approval. Typical applications include explosion suppression or isolation of dust collectors, drying systems, pneumatic conveying systems, and reaction vessels.
