The Satellite XT is the simple solution for all “Point-of-Use” gas detection needs. Based upon the market’s smallest and most reliable electrochemical cell technology, the  Satellite XT offers flexibility, simplicity and ease of application. The Satellite XT can be purchased in either an analogue or digital configuration, allowing it to interface with new or existing facility control technologies.

The digital Satellite XT is built on LonWorks® technology. Life safety systems built on a LonWorks® network platform allow users to leverage the cost efficiencies of distributed controls, while maintaining the integrity and reliability necessary for code compliant  safety applications.

The Satellite XT is an intelligent gas detection transmitter which utilises a unique electrochemical sensor to detect toxic, corrosive, and combustible gas. The Satellite XT is a “Point-of-Use” monitor normally located at or near a potential source of gas release. Field accessories allow sampling options for various environments including in–situ duct detection and extractive designs for harsh or remote areas. Typical installations for gas detection sampling include gas cabinet exhaust ducting, valve manifold boxes, equipment enclosures and ambient breathing zones.

Each digital Satellite XT transmitter bears a unique address for use on a LonWorks® network. This feature allows it to participate in a community of other intelligent LonWorks® devices, which when considered together, comprise a life safety system network.  Gas concentration and alarm information are both displayed locally at the Satellite XT, as  well as distributed onto the LonWorks®  network for use by other field devices.  The Satellite XT provides complete programmability of all monitoring variables including gas type, alarm levels, and maintenance status.
