Sensepoint XCD Series

For areas that have flammable gases, toxic gases, and oxygen readings, the Sensepoint XCD Series is an ideal all-in-one sensor. This sensor is designed to detect a wide range of gases, such as methane, propane, and butane, working to mitigate the risk of an explosion.
The Sensepoint XCD Series works both inside and outside and is best suited for areas that have high concentrations of explosive gases and/or low concentrations of oxygen.
