Vortex is our most flexible control package that can be customised to meet your site requirements, however complex, without the need for extensive cabling.

The standard wall mounted unit has now been joined by modular versions, designed for incorporation into a variety of specialist enclosures or larger cabinet-based safety systems.

The simplest version, Vortex Panel, comprises just the essential input, output and controller modules mounted on a DIN rail. An optional display panel is available.

This configuration is ideal for confined spaces and can be installed in specialist enclosures, such as flameproof housings or those with high ingress protection.

Vortex Rack combines the essential modules with a 19” Euro Rack fascia featuring simple button controls and individual status indicators. Designed for integration into existing Euro rack enclosures, this configuration can be used to replace obsolete gas monitoring systems or to introduce gas detection to other types of rack-mounted equipment.
