FAQ
What is the SmartControl 300 and what functions does it perform?
The SmartControl 300 is a stationary gas monitoring device based on NDIR technology. It measures high concentrations of solvent-containing gas mixtures and monitors threshold values in industrial processes. The device is ideal for applications where process safety and precise gas monitoring are paramount.
Which gases and concentrations can be measured with the SmartControl 300?
The SmartControl 300 is primarily designed for monitoring gas mixtures containing solvents. Substances such as perchloroethene, KWL and freons can be detected as standard - other gas types can be integrated on request. Thanks to the NDIR measuring method and integrated correction functions, a measurement accuracy of less than 5 % of the measured value (depending on the substance) is guaranteed. The concentrations that can be measured also depend on the substance.
How does the SmartControl 300 contribute to efficiency and safety in industrial processes?
- Process safety: Critical gas mixture concentrations are detected at an early stage thanks to precise threshold value monitoring.
- Cost-effectiveness: The reliable measuring accuracy and fast response time (approx. 20 s) minimize downtimes and prevent costly process disruptions.
- Investment protection: The high long-term stability and robust design ensure low maintenance requirements and extend the service life of the measuring device.
What are the dimensions of the SmartControl 300?
- Dimensions: Width 310 mm x height 133 mm x depth 221 mm
- Measuring method: NDIR single-beam method with heated cuvette (50 °C)
- Measuring points: 1 measuring point as standard, expandable to up to 3 channels
- Response time: approx. 20 s; full specifications achieved in approx. 30 minutes
These technical data make the SmartControl 300 a compact but powerful gas monitoring system for industrial use.
How can the SmartControl 300 be integrated into existing systems?
The SmartControl 300 offers a wide range of interfaces for seamless integration:
- Communication interfaces: RS232, Profibus DP, Ethernet Modbus TCP, Ethernet IP and Profinet
- Digital inputs and outputs: Multiple digital inputs, "ready" and "fault" relay outputs, expandable to up to 8 outputs)
- Optional analog outputs: Up to 8 galvanically isolated outputs (4-20 mA, freely configurable)
Can the Smart Control 300 be used in ATEX zones?
The Smart Control 300 is not designed for use in ATEX zones. However, our experts often find solutions to install the measuring device outside the Ex zone and still use it effectively. For applications in potentially explosive atmospheres, we can implement a customer-specific project on request.
How quick and easy is it to commission the SmartControl 300?
The device has a maximum heat-up time of 120 seconds at room temperature(20 °C). It is then ready for operation and can carry out measurements.
Simple operation: An intuitive 2.5-inch touch display (128 × 64 pixels, black/white) with clear LED status indicators enables user-friendly menu navigation and fast configuration.
This reduces the installation effort and enables a quick production start.
Does the Smart Control 300 require a lot of maintenance?
No, the Smart Control 300 is very low-maintenance. The automatic zero point correction and the absence of calibration gases during operation minimize downtimes and significantly reduce maintenance costs.
How easy is it to operate the measuring device?
The Smart Control 300 is equipped with a 128 x 64 touch display for intuitive operation. The four status LEDs show important information at a glance.
