Why this principle
Sensepoint XCD is a fixed-point detector for flammable, toxic and oxygen hazards. The sensor cartridge and transmitter are modular: a cartridge is auto-recognized when plugged in — true plug-and-play with hot-swap field replacement. One transmitter accepts catalytic, electrochemical (SureCell) and infrared cartridges, so you no longer need different instruments for different gases.
The explosion-proof dual-chamber housing separates wiring from electronics for safe, simple field termination. The large LCD shows concentration (ppm / %Vol / %LEL), gas type and status with a tri-colour backlight (green normal / red alarm / yellow fault) readable at night. Built-in temperature compensation; a magnetic wand gives one-man calibration and menu access without opening the enclosure — no hot-work permit. An IR remote is optional.
Key specifications
| Item | Value |
|---|---|

| Relay defaults | RLY1 = A1 alarm, RLY2 = A2 alarm, RLY3 = fault; NO/NC and energized/de-energized programmable |
| Output detail | Inhibit 2.0 mA during calibration (O2: 2.0/17.4 mA); overrange 22.0 mA; fault 0–<1.0 mA |
| Pressure / storage | 90–110 kPa; storage -25 ~ +65 °C |
| Calibration interval | Honeywell advises test & recalibration every 6 months, inspection every 3 months; interval settable 30–365 days with expiry warning (W-01) |
Calibration & maintenance
Honeywell advises a bump test and recalibration every 6 months with inspection every 3 months; allow 30 minutes warm-up before calibration. Bump test via the weather-protector port or calibration cap; accurate calibration requires the calibration cap, with flammable span gas at 25–75%LEL. During calibration the output is inhibited (2 mA default) to avoid false alarms; oxygen needs no zero — span directly on clean air (20.9%Vol).
Applications
Oil & gas (drilling rigs, production and refining units, tank farms, loading racks, storage & transport, fuel stations), chemical plants, power stations, steel & metallurgy, water and wastewater treatment, food & beverage, pharmaceuticals, municipal gas (distribution, regulator and filling stations), plus tunnels, mines and car parks. Marine use is backed by ABS / BV / DNV-GL type approvals.
