Honeywell SPXLESS316 Searchline Excel Open Path Gas Detector 316L Stainless Steel Enclosure 200m

SPXLESS316 | Searchline Excel Fixed Gas Detector with Upgraded Housing

Open path infrared gas detector in 316L stainless enclosure with 200 m range for perimeter and fence line monitoring.

Why the Housing Upgrade Matters

Most fixed detector failures in the field are not sensor failures — they are enclosure failures. Salt-laden coastal air, hydrogen sulfide, acid mist, washdown jets and UV exposure attack painted aluminium housings long before the sensing element reaches end of life. This SPXLESS316 answers that problem at the metal level, not with a coating touch-up.

Detection Performance

• Sensor technology: open path infrared absorption, transmitter and receiver pair
• Detection range: 0-5 LEL.m across path lengths up to 200 m
• Output signal: 4-20 mA plus Modbus RTU, relay alarm contacts
• Calibration: non-intrusive magnetic switch through the sealed housing, no cover removal required

Housing and Installation Highlights

• Stainless pan and tilt bracket avoids the corrosion seizure common on coated carbon steel mounts
• Single detector covers up to 200 m of path, reducing total detection points on large sites
• Sealed 316L body allows hose-down cleaning without opening the optical chamber
• Alignment jig and sunshade included in stainless finish as standard

Typical Applications

• Fence line and perimeter gas cloud detection
• Tank farm bund and dike monitoring
• Jetty and berth hydrocarbon release detection
• Compressor station open area coverage
