MIPEX TECHNOLOGY proudly presents the most advanced technology in the hydrocarbon and carbon dioxide detection for industrial safety applications.

Having more the 15 years of design and manufacturing experience we can fairly announce that we have created excellent product – MIPEX infrared gas sensors. MIPEX sensors have had a significant impact on the combustible gas detection market.

Unique MIPEX sensors offer opportunities for significant expansion of the scope of the existing markets and create the new ones from scratch:

-creating a market for disposable portable combustible gas detectors;

-the formation of a number of wireless solutions and systems;

-expansion of the boundaries of fixed gas detectors and systems.

　

MIPEX infrared gas sensors applied to all industrial safety segments, including Oil & Gas Extraction & Refineries, Chemistry & Petrochemistry, Fire/Hazmat& Mining, Power/Utility & Water/WasteWater, Biogas and more

　

MAIN FEATURES:

　

• EXTREMELY LOW power consumption

• Metal & plastic housing

• Long term stability

• Digital & analog interface

• Controller inside

MIPEX-02 infrared sensors for above ground applications (Group II)

General description

MIPEX infrared gas sensors for methane,hydrocarbons, carbon dioxide detection.

Used operating technology - NDIR.

Sampling method – diffusive.

Communication with recording-and-measuring equipment  via UART interface.

Features

• Ultralow power consuption - less than 5 mW
• Measuring range up to 100% vol. methane
• Microcontroller and temperature sensor inside provide linearized and temperature compensated output readings
• Highest level of intrincically safe explosion protection 'ia'
• Calibration constants are saved in nonvolatile memeory;
• Sinters free
• Hydrocarbons cross sensitivity data are available (option)

Design versions

MIPEX-02 infrared gas sensors are available in three housing types:

metalliс standard  - loaded conservatively and having enviromental stability;

fast response metallic - with additional side holes, providing improved speed-of-response due to more active diffusion;

plastiс standard - having comparable with metallic one parameters and smaller weight.

Sensors in metallic housing are used mainly in portable and compact devices, as well us in applications with agressive environments, for example in stall barns and poultry factories.

Sensors in "fast response" housing provide T90<10s and are ideal for fixed detectors where improved response time is required.

Plasic sensors are suited for price sensetive devices.

MIPEX-03 series of infrared gas sensors

　

MIPEX TECHNOLOGY proudly presents the most advanced technology available in the market - the third generation of MIPEX infrared combustible gas sensors.

MIPEX-03 sensors operate by using NDIR principle. The sensor contains LED with optimized spectrum and signal processing algorithm, an optical system, specially designed photo diodes, an imbedded temperature sensor and electronics to process the signals.

The sensor communicates with instrument electronics via digital or analog output. Having power consumption less than 3,5 mW MIPEX-03 sensors reach less than 10 second response time.

All MIPEX-03 sensors have the highest level of intrinsically safe explosion protection “ia”. To meat exacting customer requirements ‘intelligent’ MIPEX-03 sensor with microcontroller inside provides extended features and amongst other advantages dramatically reduces development cost and time.

More than 70 modifications of MIPEX-03 sensor are now available for order.
