NP-237H

NP-237H

NP-237H is designed for the measurement of hydrocarbon gas/vapors of crude oil gas in inert gas or air at vessels.

The NP-237H actually combines two detection methods in a single device: a portable hydrocarbon gas indicator, using the catalytic detection principle to respond to flammable gases up to the lower explosive limit (0-10% LEL / 0-100% LEL), and a thermal conductivity indicator, using the cooling effect of hydrocarbon gas to produce reading up to 100% vol (0-20% vol / 0-100% vol).

Both detection methods employ the wheatstone bridge measurement principle and use the same batteries, meters and sampling system. An extensive range of standard accessories rounds up model NP-237H.

Features:

  • Portable hydrocarbon gas detector
  • Suited for detection of HC gas/vapours in an inert gas
  • 4 measuring ranges (%LEL and %vol)
  • Catalytic combustion and thermal conductivity
  • MED approved (Wheelmark)
