Sentry IT Fire and Gas Detection
4Copyright © 2015 Sierra Monitor Corporation

• It saves lives and protects valuable assets
• Many applications require fire and gas detection
systems by regulations and laws
• Systems must be approved by required agencies
otherwise creates immense liability for the user
Why Fire and Gas Detection?
UL 2075

6
• Products and solutions for detecting fire and toxic and
combustible gases
• State of the art sensors and detectors
• Scalable and flexible architecture including IP
connectivity and cloud applications
• Safety and regulatory approvals with NRTLs
What is Sentry IT?
Combustible Gases
Explosion or fire hazard
Must maintain concentration
below lower explosive limit (LEL)
Toxic Gases
Hazardous to human health and
safety
Employee exposure must be
limited
Oxygen Displacing
Gases
Indirect human health hazard
Deficiency of breathing Oxygen

7
• 35 years of experience
 Key agency approvals like FM, ATEX, UL, CCCF an others…
• Flexible and scalable
 From stand-alone detectors to advanced controller-based systems
• Lowest Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)
 Fast installation and commissioning, infrequent calibration, low ongoing
maintenance
• Distributed intelligence

Sentry IT Summary

16
Application
• Hazardous gas monitoring in bus maintenance
facility used for CNG buses
Problem
• Central Ohio Transit Authority (COTA) starting to
switch buses to CNG fuel needed to upgrade safety
system in maintenance facility.
Solution
• Sierra Monitor Sentry IT system with combustible
and Carbon Monoxide detector system integrated
to central control via FieldServer gateways to meet
local fire marshal requirements.
Results
• SMC provided a complete system with quick
installation and approval that took into account all
safety, notification, alarm and mitigation
requirements.
Alternative Fueled Vehicle Facilities

17
Application
• Monitoring Sulfur Dioxide gas leaks in residential area
near a chemical plant
Problem
• A safety engineer had very specific need to monitor for
low levels of SO2. It had to be wireless, remote, 0-20 ppm
range, non-intrusive calibration and delivered soon.
Solution
• A custom modified 4501-10 with non-intrusive calibration,
0-20 PPM range installed in NEMA 4X box with a wireless
transmitter interfacing to base station in plant central.
Results
• Sierra Monitor was able to quickly and effectively make
the necessary changes to an existing product to meet the
customer’s very specific requirements enabling this major
chemical manufacturer to meet their safety needs and
effectively satisfy both safety and community
requirements.
Gas Detection – Chemical Plant

18
Application
• Monitoring for hazardous gas and fire conditions in
pipeline booster station
Problem
• Required comprehensive detection package with
point gas, open path gas and flame detection, plus
other devices.
Solution
• SMC provided over $2.5 million in equipment to meet
their needs including detectors for flame,
combustible gas , open path, and H2S, plus strobes,
alarms and other devices.
Results
• Sierra Monitor won the project not only due to the
reputation and quality of our gas and flame
detection products, but also due to capability to
consolidate the wide range of products necessary
and meet the extensive requirements for
documentation and testing.

Protocol Gateways and Routers

Requirement
• Today's M2M/IIoT (Industrial Internet of Things)
demands that devices and assets must communicate
with each other regardless of protocol
Challenges
• No common protocol in the industry
• No single hardware supplier can provide
devices for all factory and building functions
• Data must be accessible between different systems
• IP connectivity is no longer just nice to have, it is a must
• Installed base of devices and assets cannot just be
replaced
