Description
Detcon Model CXT-IR SmartWireless® gas detection sensors are easily and economically
deployable in both permanent and temporary installations. This low power sensor assembly
utilizes infrared technology for combustible hydrocarbons. All component parts are rated
for Class 1; Division 1, Groups C, D hazardous areas. This advanced field device consists of
a Detcon Model Series CXT low power infrared gas detection sensor, and wireless trans-
ceiver packaged in a single enclosure. Power is provided by a disposable battery pack capable
of continuous operation for greater than 60 days. An optional rechargeable battery pack
allows for 5 months operation. Solar power options allow for indefinite operation. An
optional disposable “D” cell battery pack is capable of delivering up to 9 months operation.
Detcon’s proprietary “Self Healing Mesh” technology operates at 2.4 GHZ and conforms
to non licensed radio frequency appliance usage around the world. Wireless network integ-
rity and security is accomplished using direct sequence spread spectrum DSSS programming
topology. Wireless applications can be as simple as a single field device communicating with
a host display or any number of field devices forming a network of subscribers. Each device
in the network is assigned its unique device identification or a UID. Every device in the
network can act as a router and repeater for all other devices in the network. This means that
subscribers can “hop” through neighboring devices to communicate with each other
thereby widening network access points. This unique and innovative technology is designed
to create a robust network that automatically routes around congestion and line-of-sight
obstacles while improving throughput as subscriber device density increases.
Standard network configuration is of the master/slave type (320 Transceiver). An optional

and proprietary technology referred to as “Fault Tolerant Safety Network” (300 Trans-
ceiver) is also available which guarantees that no single point of failure will interrupt com-
munications between devices on the rest of the network, including loss of HMI. Processing
power is, in a sense, shared among all devices. There is no controller dependence. Each
device in the network is capable of acting as the network master, processing real time data
