Product Description
With the diffused variant of the Falco fixed VOC Gas Detector, erroneous readings are virtually eliminated, making it an excellent choice for usage in hazardous environments where conventional fixed VOC gas detectors may give incorrect results. Detecting volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in places like refineries and petrol chemical factories is made simple with the stationary VOC gas detector apparatus.

Product Overview
It is now possible to use Ion Science Falco, an intrinsically safe fixed VOC detector, in hazardous areas. IECEx certification is a guarantee of quality. Fixed VOC Detectors with "typhoon" technology is developed for extreme weather conditions and condensing atmospheres, respectively.
Falco is a new generation of fixed VOC detectors that use patented photoionization detection (PID) technology to continuously detect a wide range of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The novel 'typhoon technology,' exclusive to this stationary VOC detector, protects the PID sensor from condensing moisture for increased resiliency under extreme weather situations. The proprietary Fence Electrode Technology in the PID sensor essentially eliminates the effects of airborne humidity and safeguards against contamination.
A straightforward user interface is one of the numerous benefits of the Falco stationary VOC detector. An OLED screen with great contrast and a graphical user interface makes it easy to set up and service. It features five magnetic switches. RS485 (Modbus®), 4-20 mA, and Relay outputs are also included as standard equipment on all units. It is possible to configure the Relay outputs for high and low alarms, fault circumstances, or test cycle synchronization.

Amazing device that is available either diffused and pumped models. I also admire the large panel of LED that allows the status to be seen in the distance even in sunlight. Certified ATEX Zone 1 and IECEx.
