Det-Tronics 006629-002 Sample Draw Cup

Det‑Tronics 006629‑002 is a Sample Draw Cup designed for use with the PointWatch PIR9400 infrared gas detector. It enables the detector to be used in sample‑draw gas monitoring systems, where air or gas is actively pulled from a remote location into the detector for analysis.

This accessory is part of Det‑Tronics’ industrial gas detection ecosystem, commonly used in hazardous locations, industrial plants, and safety‑critical environments.

🧩 What the Sample Draw Cup Does

The 006629‑002 provides a sealed metal enclosure that allows the PIR9400 detector to operate in a gas extraction (sample‑draw) system rather than relying on diffusion alone.

✔️ Key Functions

• Creates a sealed interface for sample‑draw applications
• Allows the PIR9400 to monitor gas from remote or hard‑to‑access areas
• Includes a compression fitting for sample tubing
• Replaces the standard baffle on the detector
• Requires field assembly and additional sampling hardware

🏭 Where It’s Used

This accessory is typically installed in:

• Chemical plants
• Refineries
• Industrial manufacturing
• Hazardous gas monitoring systems
• Any location where gas must be sampled from a remote or enclosed area

It is especially useful when:

• The detector cannot be mounted directly at the sampling point
• Airflow is limited
• Gas must be drawn from ducts, cabinets, pits, or enclosed machinery

🧠 Expert Insight

The 006629‑002 is not a standalone detector—it is an interface accessory that adapts the PIR9400 for sample‑draw operation. This is important because IR gas detectors like the PIR9400 are normally diffusion‑based. The sample‑draw cup ensures:

• Proper gas flow across the IR beam
• A sealed environment to maintain measurement accuracy
• Mechanical compatibility with tubing‑based sampling systems
