Smart IoT enabled gas sensor
Up to 4 electrochemical gas sensor modules (CO, NO, NO₂, SO₂)
Installation in-situ (in the tunnel’s driving area) or with suction line adapter
Stainless steel housing 1.4404 (AISI 316L)
IP rating IP69K
Connection to tunnel control system by
- MODBUS RTU (RS-485)
- MODBUS/TCP (Ethernet)
- Analogue and relay outputs

Integrated web server for visualisation, configuration, data logging, remote maintenance (Ethernet option only)
Optional smart/HUB IoT operating and control unit with touch display
Plug & play operation

System setup

smart/ECS sensor to be mounted either
- in-situ (directly in the tunnel’s driving area) or
- extractive in a niche, cross-cut, etc.
Optional smart/HUB with touch display

Operation

Gas monitoring during normal operation is used to control the tunnel ventilation at normal operation. If and with how much power artificial ventilation by jet fans is operated depends on the measured visibility and gas concentration. Electrochemical gas sensor cells induce currents proportional to the prevailing gas concentration. With these currents and the measured temperature, the gas sensor modules calculate the gas concentrations.

Advantanges

Specifically designed for application in tunnels
Single sensor instead of transmitter/receiver pair requiring exact alignment
Low maintenance requirements, stable, accurate
Pre-calibrated gas sensor modules for easy exchange
Smart IoT enabled solution from sensor over hub to asset management
Condition monitoring
Remote maintenance
Flexible integration into tunnel control system

Application

Tunnels are important infrastructure elements in road networks and facilitate the connection of regions.

Environmental conditions in tunnels are influenced by fog, particles and emissions and need to be monitored to protect people on their passage through the tunnel from danger and impacts on their health. Accidents in tunnels, and particularly fires, can have dramatic consequences and can prove extremely costly in terms of human life, increased congestion, pollution and repair costs. At every time people in the tunnel need to be supplied with breathable air and sufficient visibility.

Since 1990 JES Elektrotechnik GmbH develops, installs and maintains systems to monitor air characteristics and lighting conditions in tunnels. Our systems are robust, durable and resistant against the corrosive atmosphere in a tunnel. They operate reliably and have a high accuracy in measurement.

All systems fulfil the requirements of the EC guideline 2004/54/EC (Minimum safety requirements for tunnels in the trans-European road network) and the more detailed national guidelines and provisions:

Austria: RVS 09.02 Tunnelausrüstung
Germany: RABT Richtlinien für die Ausstattung und den Betrieb von Straßentunneln
Switzerland: ASTRA Richtlinien und Fachhandbuch Betriebs- und Sicherheitsausrüstungen (BSA)

Our range of products for tunnel covers systems for monitoring of

Visibility (extractive or in-situ)
Toxic gases like CO, NO, NO2 (extractive or in-situ)
Air velocity, direction and temperature
Luminance (access, threshold and interior zone)
Illuminance
