The Vanguard™ wireless fixed point gas detector from United Electric Controls can now be installed in difficult to reach locations with the introduction of additional antenna gains and the option to mount it remotely.
The Vanguard TCD60 adds to the versatility of the Vanguard TCD50, by providing three options for antenna gain and a remote mount option for the antenna. This aids with better placement of the antenna to improve signal transmission while keeping the gas sensor where it is needed.
Wireless gas detector
One customer mounted the Vanguard TCD60 inside an underground vault and brought the antenna to the surface to connect with the existing WirelessHART network. There are three antenna gains to choose from to help optimize distance versus omnidirectional capability reducing the need for as many repeaters.

Wireless gas detector for monitoring toxic and combustible gases, including Methane (CH4), Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S), Carbon Monoxide (CO), Ammonia (NH3), and Propane (C3H8).
The Vanguard WirelessHART, fixed point gas detector is designed to monitor gas emissions in areas with power and signal wire limitations. It significantly reduces engineering and deployment time and costs.
Storage tank monitoring
A true wireless device with 5-year battery life and wireless HART communication, Vanguard utilizes interchangeable toxic and combustible sensors that can be hot swapped via UE’s patented FlexSenseTM technology.
Typical applications that utilize Vanguard include storage tank monitoring, fence line and emissions monitoring, well plugging and abandonment (P&A). Gas detector performance testing per UL/IEC 60079-29-1 pending.
