Dräger Polytron® 8200 CAT

Detection of flammable gases and vapour

The Dräger Polytron® 8200 CAT is an advanced explosion-proof

transmitter for the detection of flammable gases in the lower explosion
limit (LEL). It uses a catalytic bead DrägerSensor® Ex … DD that will detect
most flammable gases and vapours. In addition to a 3-wire 4 to 20-mA
analogue output with relays it also offers Modbus and Fieldbus protocols,
making it compatible with most control systems.

Benefits

Fast and stable – the DrägerSensor® Ex … DD

The latest generation type DD gas sensor is based on the proven catalytic bead principle. Innovative dual active
elements result in very good long-term zero stability. Dräger has raised the bar yet again for poison resistance.
The resulting long service life provides you with low ownership costs. Measuring performance has also been
improved. The innovative gas inlet allows the sensor to respond to gas within a matter of seconds.

Easy device management via digital communication

The Dräger Polytron 8200 is equipped with digital interfaces allowing for quick and easy remote interrogation
of the transmitter’s state. Integration with existing asset management systems such as PACTware™ is possible
via DTM.

In addition to the common HART® communication system, the fieldbus interfaces PROFIBUS® PA,
FOUNDATION fieldbus™ H1, and Modbus RTU are also available.

Same design, same operating principle

The Dräger Polytron 8200 belongs to the Polytron 8000 series. All transmitters in this series have the
same design and user interface. This allows for uniform operation with reduced training and maintenance
requirements.

The large graphic backlit display shows status information clearly and in an easy to use format. The measured
gas concentration, selected gas type, and measuring unit are displayed during normal operation. Colored LEDs
(green, yellow and red) provide additional alarm and status information.

The Polytron 8200 is operated by means of a magnetic wand over contact surfaces.

Three relays for controlling external equipment

Upon request, the Dräger Polytron 8200 can also be supplied with three integrated relays. This enables you to
use it as an independent gas detection system with two arbitrarily adjustable concentration alarms and one fault
alarm. Audio alarms, signal lights or similar devices can thus be controlled locally without an additional cable
between the transmitter and central controller.

Safe, robust housing for every application

Polytron 8200 features a Class I, Div. 1 rated explosion proof enclosure made from aluminium or stainless
steel, making it suitable for a wide range of environmental conditions. A protection type “e” version includes a
convenient docking station which allows installation in hazardous atmospheres without running conduit (where
approved).

Benefits

Make the impossible possible with the remote sensor

An available remote sensor condulet housing allows the sensor to be installed up to 30 metres (100 feet) away
from the Polytron transmitter. The sensor splash guard with integrated tubing nipple permits one person to
perform a full calibration of a remote mounted sensor from the transmitter.

Data logger

The Polytron 8200 has a data logger, which records measuring and event data from prior years.

System Components

Dräger REGARD® 3900

The Dräger REGARD® 3900 is a standalone, self contained control

system for the detection of Toxic, Oxygen and Ex hazards. The control
system is fully configurable between 1 and 16 channels, depending upon
the type and quantity of input/output boards installed.
D-27777-2009

Dräger REGARD®-1

The Dräger REGARD®-1 is a standalone, self contained single channel

control system for the detection of Toxic, Oxygen and Ex hazards.
The control system is fully configurable for a single input from either a
4 to 20 mA transmitter or a Dräger Polytron® SE Ex measuring head.
