Why choose the REGARD 3000?

February 17, 2022

Monitor various gases and vapours with the modular Dräger REGARD® 3000 control system. Its multi-coloured status light signals the status of your gas detection system. The controller allows you to combine three different modules: Input, Relay and Gateway module. You can connect up to four analogue transmitters and eight relays in combination.

Especially well visible and audible from a distance

In the event of an alarm, every second counts – but it is also useful to be able to see the status of the gas detection system at a glance. The Dräger REGARD 3000 makes this possible with its status light. Different colours clearly indicate whether everything is in order (blue), whether there are malfunctions (yellow) or whether alarms are pending (red). In addition, it can be seen immediately whether the alarm is active (flashing red) or has been acknowledged (continuous red light). This way, everyone on site is informed about the system status and daily checks are also made easier. The integrated horn and the SIL2-capable contacts of the REGARD 3000 provide even more safety.

Access the gas warning system more centrally

Often gas transmitters are installed in areas that are difficult to access or are far away from each other and the associated control unit. The REGARD 3000’s 4 – 20 mA HART® input module gives you central access to all diagnostic information in the event of an alarm or fault. The transmitter configurations can also be read out and transferred conveniently in this way. The intuitive touch display gives you an overview of the status of your gas detection system at all times.

Flexible options for expansion

If the range of functions or the size of the gas detection system changes: The REGARD 3000 can be expanded by an additional relay or gateway module, depending on the requirements. This way, the system remains flexible and grows with the plant without having to shut down the production process for a longer period of time. A REGARD 3000 can be equipped with a maximum of one input module, one relay module and one gateway module.

Networking individual systems with each other

Do you have several gas detection systems with REGARD 3000 and REGARD 7000? You would like to have all systems in view and control and configure them centrally? Then connect the REGARD 7000 as client to the REGARD 3000 systems via an Ethernet cable connection. Networked in this way, the client can detect, control and configure the REGARD 3000 units as satellites.

Flexible options for mounting

You already have a control cabinet or control station for your production process control system and would like to integrate the gas warning system there? Or you need a small gas detection system that can be easily integrated into your building? With the Dräger REGARD 3000, you have the option of integrating the docking station directly into a control cabinet and mounting the operating unit (display module) in the control cabinet door. Or you can use the smart, compact wall-mounted housing. You can choose between the colours telegrey and black.
