Intrinsically Safe Leak Detection for Acid, Alkaline and Inorganic Solutions
YHSP-SAR-Ex: chemical family detection, fast response depending on the chemical, and reuse after cleaning.
Chemical leaks in industrial facilities require leak detection suited to the target liquid. YHSP-SAR-Ex detects acid, alkaline and inorganic solutions using an intrinsically safe electronic point sensor. It is suitable for hazardous areas when used in an intrinsically safe circuit with the required barrier, control module, protective housing and base.
💎 Optimized Detection by Chemical Family
• Designed for detection of acid, alkaline and inorganic solutions, including sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, caustic soda and hydrogen peroxide.
⚡️ Fast Response (Chemical-Dependent Response Time)
• Detects leaks within 2 to 60 seconds, depending on the chemical. Response times for typical detection media are specified in the technical specifications.
♻️ Reusable After Cleaning
• The sensor is reusable after cleaning. No replacement parts are required after detection.
🛡️ Intrinsically Safe Design (Ex ia)
• KCs-certified Ex ia IIC T6 design for hazardous areas. Use only in an intrinsically safe circuit.
💡 Control Module Integration
• Operates with the MTL7760ac Zener barrier and a YOOHANTECH leak detection control module. Select either YHSM-01S-AR (1 channel) or YHSM-04S-AR (4 channels).
⚙️ Safety System Configuration Guide (System Configuration)
• Intrinsically Safe Ex ia Rating
Use the sensor only in an intrinsically safe circuit. KCs intrinsic safety certification: Ex ia IIC T6, Certificate No. 25-AV2BO-0186X. Refer to the YHSP-SAR-Ex Sensor Wiring Guide for detailed wiring instructions.
• Required Integration Components
The YHBK-P02 protective housing, YHWS-P02 grounding and positioning base, and MTL7760ac Zener barrier are required. Use either a YHSM-01S-AR (1-channel) or YHSM-04S-AR (4-channel) leak detection control module.
