XNX-AMAV-NNIF1 | Honeywell XNX IR Propane Detector

Honeywell XNX-AMAV-NNIF1 – IR Propane Gas Detector

XNX-AMAV-NNIF1 is a smart IR gas detector from Honeywell XNX series. It includes an MPD IR hydrocarbon (propane) sensor, 0‑100% LEL. The unit supports HART® over 3‑wire 4‑20 mA (sink, source, or isolated) and complies with NAMUR NE43. Certified ATEX, IECEx, and INMETRO for global hazardous area use. The marine‑grade aluminium enclosure with 5‑coat paint ensures durability in harsh environments.

• Marine‑grade aluminium with 5‑coat paint resists salt, humidity, and UV.
• 5 cable entries simplify installation in tight or distributed layouts.

Typical Applications & Compatible Systems

• Oil & gas terminals – propane leak detection in loading arms and tank farms.
• Chemical plants – LPG process areas and cracking units.
• Refineries – fuel gas monitoring in hydrotreater and reformer sections.
• Compatible with: Honeywell Searchline Excel, Modicon Quantum PLC, Rockwell ControlLogix, and Yokogawa DCS.
• Also suitable for marine and offshore platforms due to IP66 and salt‑resistant coating.

FAQ – Professional Insights & Selection Guide

• Q: How does the MPD IR sensor perform in varying humidity?
  A: The sensor has built‑in humidity compensation. We recommend regular zero/span checks if humidity exceeds 90% for extended periods.
• Q: Can I use this detector for methane or other hydrocarbons?
  A: The factory calibration is for propane. For methane or pentane, you need a different sensor cartridge. Contact us for custom ranges.
• Q: What is the typical response time?
  A: T90 < 6 seconds in normal air flow (0‑6 m/s). For faster response, install in a duct or use the optional flow housing.
• Q: How to choose between 3/4″ NPT and M25 entries?
  A: NPT is preferred for North American installations; M25 is standard for European/Asian markets. Check your conduit fittings before ordering.
• Q: Does the detector support SIL rating?
  A: Yes, it is SIL‑2 capable per IEC 61508. We can provide FMEDA data upon request.
