Description
The PureAire Universal Diborane (B2H6) Gas Detector is a fixed gas monitoring system designed for continuous detection of diborane in semiconductor manufacturing, specialty-gas systems, laboratories, research facilities, and other applications where B2H6 may be present.
This diborane configuration is available in 0–999 ppb and 0–1 ppm detection ranges, allowing the appropriate range to be selected for the application. PureAire's Universal Gas Detector provides continuous, real-time monitoring using renewable electrochemical sensor technology.
The monitor features a local digital display, built-in audible alarm, visual alarm indicators, two adjustable alarm relays, and an active 4–20 mA output for integration with PLCs, building automation systems, ventilation systems, remote alarms, and other facility safety equipment.
PureAire's Universal platform uses a renewable electrochemical sensor cell designed for long-term service and maintainability. Sensor calibration information is stored with the sensor cell to support ongoing maintenance of the monitoring system.
