Macurco 70-2900-0033-4 Oxygen Gas Detector

Product Description

The MACURCO 70-2900-0033-4 is a fixed oxygen gas detector designed to monitor ambient O2 levels in enclosed or semi-enclosed spaces. It provides continuous detection and alerts personnel when oxygen concentrations fall outside safe thresholds, which is critical in environments where oxygen displacement or enrichment poses a risk. This type of detector is typically installed by licensed mechanical contractors, industrial hygienists, or fire protection professionals as part of a broader life-safety or ventilation-control system.

Oxygen gas detectors in this category are used in commercial and light industrial applications where compressed gas storage, cryogenic equipment, or inert gas purging creates potential for oxygen-deficient or oxygen-enriched atmospheres. Typical installation locations include mechanical rooms, laboratories, medical gas storage areas, and confined-space entry points. The unit is sold individually and is intended for permanent wall or junction-box mounting.

Key Features

• Continuous fixed-point oxygen gas monitoring for life-safety applications
• Designed for permanent installation in commercial and light industrial environments
• Sold as a single unit for flexible placement across a facility
• Classified under non-CO gas detectors, suitable for O2-specific monitoring requirements

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style fixed gas detector for use in permanent oxygen monitoring installations. No specific compatible control panels or system families were identified in the available product data.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified contractor familiar with local fire and life-safety codes, including NFPA 72 requirements for gas detection where applicable. Power down the circuit before wiring the unit into any control panel or alarm system. Mount the detector at the height recommended for oxygen monitoring per the manufacturer instructions, as O2 sensor placement varies depending on whether depletion or enrichment is the primary concern. Do not install in locations subject to direct water spray or outside the device's rated environmental range.
