Honeywell Searchpoint Optima Plus 2108N4401N – Standard, Ethylene, ATEX / IECEx / MED, 4–20 mA
2108N4401N is a Honeywell Searchpoint Optima Plus point IR flammable detector (Ethylene calibration), ATEX / IECEx / MED, M25, 316SS, 4–20 mA, with dust barrier + weather housing + deluge shade without RGC. Use this infrared point where catalytic beads poison or the stream is oxygen-free—do not substitute a Sensepoint XCD pellistor.
Siblings: HART 2108N4401H, gas 2108N4400N, style 2108N5401N, approval 2108N4001N.

Why this part number
Optima Plus dual-source dual-beam IR does not need oxygen and ignores silicones. 2108N4401N freezes approval, thread, gas curve and output. Ethylene calibration is not interchangeable; RGC lets you gas the cell without a cup, otherwise order the calibration adaptor.
Spares and mates
2108N4401N is Searchpoint Optima Plus Standard. The detector is 316SS point IR with the factory window or flow-housing kit. Matrix: product-2698. Do not substitute Sensepoint XCD cartridges or XNX personalities.
Typical applications
2108N4401N sits on offshore platforms, FPSO cargo pump rooms, refinery compressor halls and solvent print lines. Light hydrocarbons high, heavy vapours at the pit lip, optics out of wash-down.

Installation and service
Mount 2108N4401N on a rigid 316 stand sized for the nameplate mass. Entries are M25 — do not retap. Land 4–20 mA on the fire-and-gas matrix; HART does not replace the trip pair. Keep the weather/deluge kit oriented so water cannot pond on the window. Gas with the Ethylene curve only.
FAQ
- Does 2108N4401N include HART?
- 4–20 mA only; HART sibling is 2108N4401H. HART does not replace the trip pair.
- Lead time?
- Lot-based.
- Is 2108N4401N a catalytic LEL detector?
- No. 2108N4401N is Searchpoint Optima Plus point IR. Catalytic beads are Sensepoint XCD or XNX+MPD.
- Spares?
- Use the family matrix; do not mix other IR-platform parts.
- Relation to XCD?
- Same vendor family of fixed detectors, different platforms/P/Ns.
