MX32 Gas Detection Controller

Quick Overview

The new MX32 is designed on the same platform as the MX43 and allows the control of both digital and analog channels in a wide variety of gas monitoring applications. The analog channels allow up to two wheatstone bridge gas detectors to be monitored without any additional modules. The MX32's digital technology allows up to 8 detectors to be distributed on the dual channels using suitable additional modules. The MX32 is SIL1 compliant
