Key Features
RS-485 multi-drop for scalable monitoring networks
RS-485 multi-drop network enables multiple 3720-06 sensors to be connected on a single twisted-pair cable run — reducing installation cost and cabling complexity in multi-room cleanroom monitoring networks.
Compact fixed-point format — low-intrusion installation
The compact format allows installation in ceiling tiles, wall panels and HVAC supply plenums without visible intrusion into the cleanroom environment — reducing potential contamination sources from monitoring equipment and maintaining cleanroom aesthetic.
ISO 21501-4 calibrated sensor
Factory-calibrated to ISO 21501-4 with NIST-traceable certificate — satisfying calibrated instrument documentation requirements for ISO 14644-2 cleanroom monitoring programmes.
