PROCESS AUTOMATION 10
Smart connected manufacturing will play a role in paving the way for the anticipated new normal of the post- pandemic world
20 The Dräger Polytron® 8900 UGLD
Conventional gas warning systems can only detect a gas leak if the gas comes in to contact with the detection device. As a result, external influences can delay the gas cloud or prevent it from reaching the sensor altogether. Dräger have developed a new gas warning device that is not affected by these environmental factors and detects a high-pressure gas leak as soon as gas escapes.
