Reflex
Midas-M uses patented Honeywell Analytics technology to continuously monitor the health
check status of specific electrochemical cells and alert the user if a cell enters a variety of fault
conditions (such as open or short circuit etc.) which would leave the cell unable to detect gas
and raise an appropriate alarm signal.
REFLEX® overcomes this unseen failure mode by applying periodically a special electronic pulse
to the cell and reviewing the 'echo' from the cell as it responds to the applied signal. If the cell is
deteriorating within certain pre-set limits based on the received signals then Midas-M will
decrease the REFLEX sampling interval in order to establish the actual viability of the cell. Within
a relatively short time, Midas-M will be able to alert the user via fault codes that the
electrochemical cell is likely to be requiring replacement and is possibly unable to correctly
detect gas.
REFLEX is not required for pellistors, IR, oxygen electrochemical cell or bias electrochemical
cell as these sensor cartridges provide alternative electronic means to indicate open circuits and
other sensor cartridge damage issues.
