Oldham iTrans2 Fixed Gas Detector with Configurable Smart Sensor Options

The Oldham iTrans2 Fixed Gas Detector is a highly configurable fixed gas detection system designed to continuously monitor combustible gases, toxic gases, oxygen (O₂), carbon dioxide (CO₂), and other industrial gases in hazardous environments. Engineered by Oldham (Industrial Scientific / Teledyne Gas & Flame Detection), the iTrans2 combines advanced smart sensor technology, flexible installation options, and explosion-proof construction to deliver dependable gas monitoring for virtually any industrial application.

Configure your iTrans2 with one or two gas sensors, selecting either on-board sensors mounted directly to the transmitter or remote explosion-proof sensors installed up to 200 meters (656 feet) away. This flexibility allows a single transmitter to monitor multiple hazards while reducing installation costs and simplifying system design.

Ideal for manufacturing plants, chemical facilities, wastewater treatment plants, refineries, utilities, food processing, pharmaceutical facilities, and other industrial environments, the iTrans2 provides continuous gas monitoring to help protect personnel, equipment, and operations.

• Nitrogen Dioxide (NO₂)
• Nitric Oxide (NO)
• Chlorine (Cl₂)
• Chlorine Dioxide (ClO₂)
• Hydrogen Cyanide (HCN)
• Hydrogen Chloride (HCl)
• Phosphine (PH₃)

Oxygen & Specialty Gases

• Oxygen (O₂)
• Carbon Dioxide (CO₂)
• Methane (% Volume)

Sensor availability depends on the configuration selected.

Flexible Sensor Configurations

The iTrans2 can be customized for virtually any application by selecting:

• Single or dual gas monitoring
• On-board sensors mounted directly to the transmitter
• Remote explosion-proof sensors for difficult installation locations
• Catalytic bead sensors
• Infrared gas sensors
• Electrochemical sensors

Remote sensors can be installed up to 200 meters (656 feet) from the transmitter, making the iTrans2 ideal for applications where gas hazards occur away from the display location.

Industrial Applications

The Oldham iTrans2 is commonly used in:

• Oil & Gas Production
• Chemical Processing Plants
• Manufacturing Facilities
• Wastewater Treatment Plants
• Water Utilities
• Power Generation
• Pharmaceutical Manufacturing
• Food & Beverage Processing
• Pulp & Paper Mills
• Refineries
• Mining Operations
• Industrial Process Safety Systems

Smart Sensor Technology

Oldham's factory-calibrated Smart Sensors automatically communicate sensor information to the transmitter, including sensor type, calibration data, and remaining sensor life. Automatic sensor recognition reduces maintenance time while simplifying sensor replacement.

Additional safety features include:

• Automatic sensor recognition
• Sensor life indicator
• Zero and calibration fault protection
• Access code security
• Remote diagnostics (optional HART)
• Non-intrusive magnetic calibration

Communication & Control

The iTrans2 easily integrates into existing plant control systems with:

• 4–20 mA analog output
• RS-485 Modbus RTU communication
• Optional HART® communication
• Optional programmable alarm relays
• Stand-alone operation capability

When equipped with onboard relays, the detector can directly activate alarms, ventilation systems, horns, or shutdown equipment without requiring a separate controller.
