The MSA PrimaX I is a gas transmitter that detects toxic gases and oxygen and is suited for both indoor and outdoor locations. The PrimaX I is housed in a plastic enclosure in comparison to its counterpart the PrimaX P that is housed in an aluminium enclosure. With a built-in keypad, a large LCD screen that is easily read and can be attached to an integral mounting plate the installation of this device is quick and simple.
The large LCD screen displays all the information such as: the menu, error messages and the concentration of gas, which is presented in plain text increasing the ease of use. The PrimaX I uses a 4-20 mA output signal with the option of 2 relays as well as an optional HART digital communication.
The PrimaX I can be used in settings such as laboratories, power plants, chemical plants and many other industry locations. The sensor can be easily accessed via the sensor bayonet cup and the sensor can be changed on site while under power, preventing the need to shut down the potentially hazardous area. A massive benefit for any user.
