Gas Density Monitor - GDM-100-TI-D

Brand: WIKA Alexander Wiegand SE & Co. KG
Gas density is a crucial operating parameter for high-voltage switchgear. If the required gas density is not present, safe operation of the plant cannot be guaranteed.

The gas density measuring instruments from WIKA warn reliably against dangerously low gas quantities, even under extreme environmental conditions. If the gas density drops as a result of a leakage, the switch contacts will switch.

In addition to the traditional gas density monitor, with the model GDM-100-TI-D with Modbus® output, high-precision sensors and evaluation electronics are incorporated.
Features
  • Ideally suited for Smart Grid or modernisation projects. 
  • On-site display with switch contacts and Modbus output. 
  • Modbus delivers measured values for pressure, temperature and gas density. 
  • Compact design with only one process connection. 
  • Precision sensors enable high-accuracy gas density determination.
