The company’s fully addressable sensors significantly reduce installation costs

In addition, the company’s fully addressable sensors significantly reduce installation costs and, more importantly, minimize the overall cost of ownership, when compared to using multiple stations for larger sites, such as laboratories, hotels, schools, universities, and large public and industrial facilities.

The MX 256 unit complements the MX family of units, including the MX 16, MX 32, MX 40, MX 43, MX 52 and MX 62 units, thereby offering customers a wide range of solutions that are designed to meet their gas detection needs.

The MX 256 unit's strong points include:

  • 8-line digital control unit
  • The digital detectors of the OLCT10N series can detect the following gases O2, NO, NO2, NH3, CO, CO2
  • Compact and easy to install
  • Integrated relays
  • Large capacity
  • 256 addressable relays
  • 224 logic inputs
  • 256 analog outputs
  • 256 digital sensors

In a wall-mounted box, the MX 256 unit is compact and easy to install, and the configuration will be carried out, thanks to its programming software - COM 256.

With its new option of industrial controller or remote HMI, the MX 256 unit allows:

  • The connection of 4-20 mA detectors
  • Data recording on USB key or SD card
  • To share the recorded information or to provide a diagnosis of the installation thanks to its embedded webpage

Multiple applications are possible, including:

  • Research laboratories
  • Production and storage areas, large industrial warehouses
  • Hotels / public buildings / commercial facilities
  • Schools / universities
