The Nova 541 Series chlorine alarm monitors are designed for the continuous detection of Cl2 in ambient air. The Cl2 sensor is capable of excursions over 100 PPM with no damage. The Cl2 sensor is a disposable electrochemical type with an expected life of between 3-4 years. The sensor needs no warm-up time and is ready to go as soon as the monitor is turned on. Several versions are available as shown below.

The 'DR' models are configured such that the chlorine sensor(s) are mounted outside of, and electrically connected to, the main cabinet (max distance between remote sensor & main cabinet - 50ft). This allows allows Cl2 monitoring of single or multiple remote zones, with centralized display and alarming features. The remote sensors are the diffusion type, with no pump or moving parts.

Optional dual level alarm with local indication, relay contacts, and audible alert available. Alarm set points are pre-set at Nova but are field adjustable if desired. Flashing strobe light and upgraded cabinets also available.



Models:

  • 541DR1 - Control cabinet with one remote diffusion sensor
  • 541DR2 - Control cabinet with two remote diffusion sensors
  • 541DR3 - Control cabinet with three remote diffusion sensors
  • 541DR4 - Control cabinet with four remote diffusion sensors
