The XgardIQ is our most intelligent fixed gas detector, increasing safety by minimising the time operators must spend in hazardous areas.
This versatile SIL2 certified gas detector and transmitter has a range of features that protect people in oil, gas, chemical & petrochemical plants to name just a few.
Available fitted with a variety of sensors for flammable, toxic, oxygen or fixed H2S gas detection.
XgardIQ is an intelligent and versatile fixed detector and transmitter. Its remote sensor and universal transmitter means you have access to Crowcon’s full range of sensor technologies and improved detection. With its sensor range selection capabilities it means users can set the full-scale range of the sensor according to specific location requirements.
Available fitted with a variety of sensors for fixed flammable, toxic, oxygen or H2S gas detection, this SIL2 certified detector is easy and safe to use, with OLED display for easy visibility of reading even in dark locations and a +Ve safety indicator to quickly confirm the detector is operating soundly at a glance.
The XgardIQ is optionally available with Alarm and Fault relays and HART communications.
- Auto-sense & auto-configure function
- Universal transmitter
- +Ve safety indicator
- Non-intrusive calibration

Easy & Safe to Use
- OLED display for bright, clear gas level indication and detector status even in dark locations
- Non-intrusive calibration removing the need for a hot-work permit or any special tools
- Positive Safety indicator confirms the detector is operating safely at a glance
- Event log function stores all alarm, fault and maintenance events to provide a history of detector use
- Remote sensor for improved probability of detection
Simple Installation & Maintenance
- Universal transmitter compatible with Crowcon’s full range of sensor technologies
- Simple sensor replacement can be done single-handedly
- Auto-sense function automatically detects whether the control system is 4-20mA current sink or source and sets itself appropriately, eliminating the risk of being incorrectly set
- Auto-configure function detects when a sensor module is plugged-in and uploads the appropriate gas type, range, units and alarm levels
Reliable
- Smart Bump and Speedy Bump test functions for quick sensor-health verification and automated reminders
- Calibration reminders to ensure that sensors remain operational and accurate at all times
- User can set the full-scale range of the sensor via the display menu according to site or specific location requirements
