Configuration
(Capacitance system)

Model NQH-FO-1
(Non-explosion-proof type)
<Integrated transducer unit type>

This model is of compact type in which both detector unit and transducer are integrated.

Configuration
(Capacitance system)

Model NQH-FO-2
(Non-explosion-proof type)
<Separated transducer type>

This model is composed of detector unit, transducer (relay power source) and special cable. Transducer may be installed far from the area exposed to Heat, Steam, Vibration, Powder or Gas. This is Non-explosion-proof type and has the same characteristics as those of Integrated transducer unit type as to performance.

Configuration
(Capacitance system)

Model NSH-FO-1-1
(Intrinsically safe construction / i3nG5)
<Integrated transducer unit type>

This model is composed of detector unit with self-contained transducer and relay power source (Model PS-7). The transducer contained in the detector head requires no special cable. For this reason, the dangerous area may be kept away unlimitedly from the safe area. As to performance, this model has the same characteristics as those of Model NQH-FO.

Configuration
(Capacitance system)

Model NSH-FO-2-1
(Intrinsically safe construction / i3nG5)
<Separated transducer type>

This model is composed of detector unit, transducer, relay power source (Model PS-7) and special cable. The transducer may be installed far from the area exposed to Heat, Steam, Vibration, Powder or Gas. This model has the same characteristics as those of Model NQH-FO and the equivalent performance to those of Integrated transducer unit type.

Configuration

Model NSH-FO-1-2
(Flameproof construction / d2G4)
<Integrated transducer type>

This model is composed of detector unit with self-contained transducer and relay power source (Model PS-8). The transducer contained in the detector head requires no special cable. For this reason, the dangerous area may be kept away unlimitedly from the safe area. As to performance, this model has the same characteristics as those of Model NQH-FO.

Model NSH-FO-2-2
(Flameproof construction / d2G4)
<Separated transducer type>

This model is composed of detector unit, transducer, relay power source (Model PS-8) and special cable. The transducer may be installed far from the area exposed to Heat, Steam, Vibration, Powder or Gas. This model has the same characteristics as those of Model NQH-FO and the equivalent performance to those of Integrated transducer unit type.

Configuration
(Impedance system)

Model NQS-FO
(Non-explosion-proof type)
<Separated transducer type>

This model is composed of detector unit, transducer and special cable.

Configuration
(Capacitance system)

Model NSS-FO
(Intrinsically safe construction / i3nG5)
<Totally separated detector unit type>

This model is composed of detector unit, transducer, relay power source and special cable that is 3 core control cable. As the transducer is designed to be installed in a dangerous area, the special cable can be made short enough to minimize picked-up noises, thus permitting a stable performance to be obtainable. As to performance, this model has the same characteristics as those of Model NQS-FO.
