DUAL-LITE GREENVILLE, SC |  |  | GAS SAMPLING The MSA MultiGard Gas Sampling System uses a common set of analyzers for up to 32 locations. System detects CO, NO2, O2, and refrigerant gases and delivers the sample to up to four sensors or analyzers. Time sharing of central analyzers reduces installation, operational, and maintenance expenses by eliminating multiple systems. Setup is configured via the front touch-screen panel display. MSA PITTSBURGH, PA | DETECTION SELECTION Napco’s C100 Series microwave/PIR detector samples the environment to automatically select the most appropriate of 12 sensitivity modes, optimizing both intruder catch and stability. Faced with hostility and/or tranquillity, sensors detect a stimulus strong enough to generate a signal but insufficient in strength to indicate an alarm, dramatically decreasing false alarms. Product makes sensitivity and critical range adjustments seamlessly and compensates for detected activity beyond the unit’s protected area.
