• The QIRF Refrigerant Gas Detectors are the second generation of a proprietary designed gas detector that is easily con¬figured to meet the International Mechanical Code, ASHRAE 15 and B52 requirements. These transmitters are engineered to address the de-ficiencies inherent with solid-state sensors. Infrared technology facilitates specifi¬c gas type refrigerant detection without any cross-sensitive interferences. Standard features include a digital display, three user con¬figurable relays, buzzer, horn/strobe output, NEMA 4X enclosure and non-intrusive calibration. Sensor Housings are thermally controlled at elevated temperatures to eliminate errors due to condensation forming and from temperature fluctuations allowing operations in temperatures from -49 to 149ºF (-45 to 65ºC). Analog outputs of 4-20 mA and or 2-10 VDC are available along with RS-485 Communications that can be used with a Modbus RTU or proprietary OptoMux communication protocol for use with any of the standalone gas controller such as the Q4C, M-Controller or Q-Controller. A Zero gas of 20.9% Oxygen with the balance Nitrogen should be used to perform a Zero calibration while a known concentration of any span gas can be used to perform yearly bump testing and calibration. Never use 100% Nitrogen gas to perform a Zero calibration on the QIRF transmitters. Calibration gases and a 0.4 to 0.6 liter/minute ow limiting gas regulator are not available and should be purchased through your local gas Supply Company or on-line companies such as Portagas® (Praxair®, Inc.) or Mesa Specialty Gases®. ACI also offers a full line of horns and strobes that can be used with the Gas detectors or building management system to alert building occupants of an alarm condition in order to meet the B-52 or other code requirements. Refer to all applicable Federal, State, Provincial and Local Health and Safety laws and regulations before using these products.
  
  The QIRF Refrigerant Detectors are covered by ACI's Two (2) Year Limited Warranty, which is located in the front of ACI's Sensors & Transmitters catalog or can be found on ACI's web site, which is: www.workaci.com.
