SMC 5100-28-IT Infrared Combustible Gas Detector

The SMC 5100-28-IT Infrared (IR) Combustible Gas Sensor Module is network-
enabled to provide the interface needed to your plant-wide control system, whether
it be 4-20 mA, Modbus, HART, relay contacts or Sentry IT Bus. This USA-made,
stand-alone smart gas sensor module is loaded with features you need.
The SMC 5100-28-IT provides all the built-in features desired by instrumentation
and safety professionals, including:
l 365-day calibration interval
l Sentry IT PSG digital bus interface
l Optional alarm relays - Alarm, Warning, Trouble
l Aluminum or 316 Stainless Steel enclosure
l Single person, non-intrusive calibration
l Optional remote sensor

How it Works
Most combustible gases absorb infrared light energy at defined wavelengths, providing an absorption signature for that gas. The
principle of an infrared detector is based upon the absorption of the infrared light at a specific wavelength as it passes through the
gas. More light is absorbed as the amount of absorbing gas increases. The detector measures the energy from an infrared light
beam at a wavelength that is absorbed by the gas and compares it to the energy emitted by the source. The difference in energy
received by the detector indicates the level of gas in the atmosphere.

Features Benefits
• Yearly calibration interval • Longest rated calibration cycle for any infrared gas detector -
reduced maintenance & cost of ownership

• Single person, non-intrusive calibration • Able to calibrate module without declassifying the area

• Network-compatible with Modbus, 4-20 mA, Sentry • Easily meets users’ needs for access to critical plant safety
IT PSG Bus, 4-20mA with HART information

• Bright scrolling LED display • Ease of calibration and easy access to gas concentration, status
and diagnostics
