Manufacturing excellence.We never let anything distract us from our commitment to producing the highest quality, industry-leading sensors. The City Technology business philosophy is rooted in the drive for continuous improvement and nowhere is this more evident than in our manufacturing processes. Initiatives such as Six Sigma and Lean ensure that our products meet exacting standards for quality and

reliability. Consistent product performance is critical to our OEM partners and end users and we achieve this using advanced manufacturing processes and increased automation at our facilities. Our Quality Management System, certifi ed to ISO9001:2000 and ISO13485, helps us to ensure the right fi rst time delivery of innovative, defect-free products.

Dedicated customer support.First-class products, unrivalled service, with the customer at the heart of everything we do. From initial specifi cation to delivery and after sales support, our job is to ensure you receive the products and services you need, when and where you need them. We have PhD qualifi ed scientists and highly experienced mechanical design engineers employing best working practices

to bring you the best possible products and provide solutions for the most challenging applications. Our extensive team of specialists will provide guidance on the best use of our sensing technology and will assist you with product selection, electronics integration, calibration and problem solving.

The ability to address wide ranging gas detection issues. City Technology provides critical gas sensing solutions wherever safety is paramount. Every day, millions of people around the world trust our sensors to keep them safe and protect them from harmful gases. Not only in harsh, hazardous environments, but also in transit situations, at home, at work, even in hospitals. Industrial safety may be the most common application for our sensors but we are always exploring new areas and applications.

CAPACITY

Industrial Safety Our electrochemical sensors protect against high levels of toxic gases. Catalytic bead and infrared sensors are used to detect explosive gases, warning operators when it is unsafe to enter or if there is any risk of a change in environmental conditions.

EmissionsWe have a range of sensors to measure toxic gas emissions and oxygen within gas fl ues. For domestic environments, you’ll fi nd our sensors monitoring the

combustion effi ciency of heating systems. In industrial applications, emissions sensors are used to monitor the combustion process in boilers, burners, furnaces and for monitoring stack emission levels.

Medical City Technology sensors are used extensively in the healthcare sector. We have sensors that monitor oxygen in anaesthesia gas within ventilators and incubators, carbon monoxide levels in lung function tests and smoking cessation programmes and NO and NO2 in inhaled nitric oxide therapy.

Residential & CommercialOur sensors are widely used in domestic CO alarms to protect against CO in the home and increasingly in multi criteria fi re detection systems in commercial buildings

Our CO and NO sensors are also frequently used in underground car parks for ventilation control

� Environmental robustness and immunity to transient conditions – increasing sensor lifetime and reducing false alarms and warranty costs

� Faster and repeatable response – reducing process time and calibration costs

� On-board filtration to protect sensors against damaging environmental conditions – maintaining measurement accuracy and product reliability

� Low output drift – resulting in less frequent calibration and improved sensor confidence

An unrivalled set of benefi ts for OEMs.At City our number one focus is on delivering products our customers want, when they want them and where they want them. Across our FOUR manufacturing sites we continually strive to improve our processes to ensure we not only meet but exceed our customers quality expectations.

4 SeriesCity’s 4 Series gas sensors are the industry standard for portable gas detectors. The range includes sensors which detect oxygen and toxic gases, an infrared version for carbon dioxide and hydrocarbons and fully certifi ed pellistors for combustible gas detection.

SensoricSensoric toxic gas sensors are manufactured in Germany. Over the last 20 plus years, the range has gained worldwide recognition for excellent performance. Sensors are available in a small ‘mini’ housing or can be supplied with adaptors to fi t the 4 and 7 Series format. Sensoric sensors are also available with 4-20mA transmitter boards.

5 SeriesCity Technology’s range of premium gas sensors has been designed to ensure optimal performance within the harsh environments of fl ue gas analysers and combustion effi ciency monitors. Sensors are available for oxygen, carbon monoxide, nitric oxide, nitrogen dioxide and sulphur dioxide, along with a hydrogen-compensated carbon monoxide sensor.

MICROMICROceL® and MICROpeL® are City Technology’s smallest, most compact sensors. The range includes, carbon monoxide, hydrogen sulphide and fully certifi ed combustible gas sensors.

ECOSUREThe ECOSURE range is designed for high quality CO detection in residential and commercial environments.

7 SeriesThe 7 Series range is suited to general gas detection applications including oxygen and toxic gases. Sensors are suitable for use in portable or fi xed gas detectors and medical gas applications.

MedicalCity’s Medical (MOX) sensors include oxygen and a range of other gas sensors that are designed specifi cally for use in respiratory and anaesthesia applications.

An extensive and growing portfolio.With more than 300 products detecting 28 different gases, City Technology offers the widest range of gas sensors in the market today. Whether your equipment is designed to monitor the four most common hazardous gases (oxygen, carbon monoxide, hydrogen sulphide or methane) or more exotic gases such as ammonia or diborane, we have a solution that will meet your needs. Our sensors are available in a variety of formats to satisfy the precise requirements of a specifi c application and instrument.

MULTIPLICITY

Commitment to Quality & Reliability. As one of the original pioneers of electrochemical sensors for detecting oxygen and toxic gases, we apply state-of-the-art gas sensing techniques to deliver the performance demands of the evolving market. A new range of ionic long life oxygen sensors has recently been introduced, signifi cantly increasing sensor lifetime in extreme environments, whilst meeting RoHS directives.

By listening closely to the voice of our customers and understanding their specifi c needs, we apply best practice in all aspects of design, manufacture, performance and quality control. All new products are designed to meet the needs of the customer, to be cost-effective and, above all, reliable. Our extensive testing processes include accelerated stress and Beta testing in real environments to ensure any potential issues are resolved early in the product life cycle.

Research & Development.Our research facilities are staffed by highly qualifi ed scientists and designers evaluating and innovating using the latest gas sensing technologies. We have strong ties with leading universities and regularly fund research activity for the benefi t of the industry as a whole. This is geared towards advanced design and process techniques and new methodologies for detecting and monitoring a wider range of gases and analytes. As a global leader in our fi eld, we invest heavily in this area to ensure we provide instrument manufacturers and end users with pioneering products.
