The company said it focused on visibility in the design of the TX6387, giving it the largest display in the industry so the readings could be easily read.

With large illuminated characters, the unit’s information display can also be viewed at a distance or in low-light conditions.

“Even the TX6386 has an above-average display readout, giving high visibility information of gas concentration in minimal ambient light conditions by using a high brightness seven-segment LED display readout,” the company said.

Both the TX6386 and TX6387 units are IP66 rated, EMC-protected and have adjustable setpoint output contacts for alarm warning control, with LED status indicators and fault indicators.

Both options are dust and water resistant and use a poison resistant catalytic combustion sensor to monitor an atmosphere’s present flammable gases.
