Trolex TX6363 Infrared Gas Detector
Trolex TX6363 Infrared Gas Detector

The Trolex TX6363 Infrared Gas Detector delivers reliable, fixed-point monitoring of flammable gases such as methane (CH₄) and carbon dioxide (CO₂) in hazardous and industrial environments. Using non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) sensing technology, it provides long-term stability, fast response, and minimal maintenance.
Designed for continuous operation, the TX6363 is intrinsically safe for both Group I (mining) and Group II (industrial) applications. It offers 4–20 mA and 0.4–2 V output options for easy system integration and includes a pre-calibrated, plug-in sensing module to simplify maintenance and reduce downtime.
- Free technical support included
- Complimentary product training available
- Free on-site or virtual demonstration offered
