Product Description
CH-A3 Combustible Gas Pellistor Description
Alphasense flammable gas pellistors are available in two housing sizes: A for fixed installation applications and A or D for portable applications.
The innovative design of the Alphasense pellistor range provides high quality, low power (only 190mW) and excellent poison resistance. All pellistors are housed in certified flameproof chambers.
CH-A3 is a drop-in (20mm diameter) replacement to existing products with improved stability and poison resistance.
