Honeywell has well over 40 years experience in the manufacture, design, maintenance and installation of point infrared gas detection, Honeywell Analytics currently has a worldwide installed base of over 120,000 infrared point hydrocarbon gas detectors in a wide spectrum of applications which include light industrial and the most demanding of offshore environments.

The Searchpoint Optima Plus infrared detection principle offers the fastest speed of response and fail-to-safe operation, which ensures that your plant is compliant, your personnel are protected and your production process can deliver maximum uptime with reduced routine maintenance, when compared with conventional electro-catalytic based gas detectors, provides low ongoing cost of ownership.
Safety Gear Store likes the fact that thanks to the development of advanced internal fault diagnostics and false alarm rejection algorithms ensures that the Searchpoint Optima Plus delivers the highest level of operational integrity.

Typical Applications

Offshore oil and gas platforms, floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) vessels, tankers, onshore oil and gas terminals, refineries, LNG/LPG bottling plants, gas compressor/metering stations, gas turbine power plants, solvent printing and coating plants.

With a list of over 100 gases and vapors that Searchpoint Optima Plus can detect we can help you choose please contact Safety Gear Store sales team who would be more than happy to assist.
