EX-TEC® HS 680

EX-TEC® HS 680

The new standard with combination measuring instruments for gas utilities

A new milestone in gas measuring technology is marked by the
EX-TEC® HS 680.

The high-end model of the new range of instruments combines ergonomic handling and technology in one completely redesigned instrument concept. It complies with the requirements of the future appendix to G 465-4.

At the same time the measuring instrument weighs 30 % less than its predecessor EX-TEC® SR 6.

Features
• Innovative operating concept with jog dial, „soft keys" and menu guidance
• Large matrix display with background illumination
• Selective infrared sensors for methane and carbon dioxide
• Calibration on methane (standard), propane and butane (optional)
• Fast and highly sensitive semi-conductors
• Three optional electrochemical sensors for oxygen and toxic gases
• Ethane analysis to determine natural gas/marsh gas without further accessories (optional)
• Quick charging in 4 h, regular charging 10 h, even without charging station
• Power supply via 4 disposable Mignon accumulators or primary cells
• EX-protection according to ATEX 100a IIB, IIC with leather bag
• PC communication via USB
• Combined carrying and display bow
