VGD Series O2, CO or Other Toxic Gases Sensor
Vehicle Gas Detector for Oxygen, CO or Other Toxic Gases
with CAN bus Digital Output
The VGD series Sensor/Transmitter utilize electro-chemical type cells to detect the target gas. These cells consist of electrodes, electrolyte and an air/liquid separation barrier. Gas molecules enter the cell and, as a result of an oxidation/reduction reaction, generate an electrical current proportional to the gas concentration. This current is measured, conditioned, and converted to the gas concentration digitally transmitted as a CAN bus beacon output signal. The data is also available for acquisition via RS-485 Modbus RTU. Calibration is handled via a PC interface software. These sensor/transmitters can also be connected to various computer based instrumentation for data acquisition and control.
