ION FALCO - Technical Specification

FALCO Instrument User Manual V1.2R
Unrivalled Gas Detection. Page 12 of 46 ionscience.com
The main display uses organic light emitting diode (OLED) technology and the status bar uses light emitting
diodes (LED). It also has a galvanically separated 4-20 mA current loop, Modbus (serial communication
protocol) and two configurable switched contacts.
For protection in explosive areas the FALCO’s Main Unit electronics are fitted in an ExD enclosure and the PID
Sensor Head utilises intrinsically safe electronics.
The FALCO has two modules:
• The Main Unit (flameproof enclosure)
• The PID Sensor Head (intrinsically safe)
The externally located intrinsically safe PID Sensor Head allows servicing and calibration in a hazardous
environment without having to isolate the power supply.
