Description
Need to monitor process gases or emissions in a volatile, explosion-prone plant environment without adding complex purging infrastructure? The ABB EasyLine EL3060 acts as an integrated, extractive continuous gas analyzer engineered explicitly for Zone 1 and Zone 2 hazardous areas. Combining an Ex “d” flameproof control unit enclosure with advanced optical or physical sensing sub-modules, this rugged system executes high-accuracy, multi-component gas analysis right at the process line—eliminating the need for expensive, conditioned analyzer shelters.
Availability: Sourced to Order / Project Configurations Available
Lead Time: Configured systems typically ship in 4 to 6 weeks
Warranty: 12-Month Manufacturer Functional Warranty
Condition: New Original (Factory Certified for Hazardous Areas)
Pricing Note: Because the EL3060 is a highly customized analytical asset whose baseline architecture depends on your specific gas matrix, measuring ranges, and sensor selections, the platform listing serves as a baseline reference index. Actual system engineering pricing is subject to open negotiation. Contact our process instrumentation specialists to submit a sample gas questionnaire and obtain a formal quote.
Modular Design Variations & Sensor Technology
On-site plant integrators can specify up to five measuring components within a single analyzer system by combining an oxygen or thermal conductivity sensor directly inside the central control housing alongside an external infrared photometer block.
- EL3060-CU (Control Unit): The core aluminum die-cast field housing featuring a flameproof viewing window and capacitive touchscreen interfaces. It houses the internal power supply, main microprocessors, and can directly integrate one internal sensor block.
- Uras26 Infrared Photometer: An NDIR absorption sensor mounted in a separate connected flameproof enclosure. It monitors up to four active IR gases simultaneously, such as CO, CO_2, NO, or SO_2.
- Magnos28 / Magnos206: Paramagnetic oxygen modules designed for precise O_2 determination down to minimal volumetric percentages using micro-wing technology.
- Caldos25 / Caldos27: Thermal conductivity sensors utilizing micromachined silicon elements optimized for binary gas mixtures like H_2 or He in ambient air.

Global Trade, Shipping & Logistics Protocol
Fulfilling industrial process gas analyzers requires deep alignment with international environmental regulations, hazardous location transport protocols, and precision instrumentation packing rules.
Export Controls & Hazardous Area Documentation
Because the EL3060 series tracks hazardous or toxic industrial gases inside classified petrochemical, refinery, or biogas systems, its export is carefully audited.
- ECCN Classification: Typically classified under 1A004, 2B351, or EAR99 depending on the gas components targeted and regional dual-use tracking matrices. A signed End-User Certificate (EUC) detailing your exact process site location must be validated before warehouse release.
- HS Code for Customs: Harmonized System Code 9027.10.20 (Gas analyzers / Electronic gas or smoke analysis apparatus).
Logistics Handling & Incoterms
All diagnostic systems leave our assembly lines under EXW (Ex Works) or FCA (Free Carrier) terms to preserve transparency for the buyer’s global trade brokers.
- Crating Specifications: Due to the fragile internal optics of the Uras26 photometer and the mass of the Ex “d” enclosures, standard cardboard boxes will not suffice. Units are mounted on specialized dampening blocks and packed within treated ISPM-15 export wooden crates. Total shipping mass for a bundled CU and photometer configuration averages 38 kg.
- Customs Packet: Consignments travel alongside comprehensive localized commercial invoices, complete test gas pressure declarations, ATEX/IECEx compliance certificates, and formalized Chamber of Commerce Certificates of Origin (COO).
Global Procurement FAQ
- Can we operate and calibrate this analyzer without opening the flameproof cover? Yes, absolutely. The EL3060 features touch-sensitive keypads that register actions directly through the thick, explosion-proof armored glass viewing pane. Well, technically this means your maintenance crew can execute full zero-point calibrations or alter screen parameters inside an active Zone 1 environment without needing a formal “hot work” safety permit.
- Does this unit require continuous housing purge air? No, the flameproof Ex “d” design removes the mandatory requirement for a pressurized purging controller. However, the housing does come equipped with integrated flame barriers. If you are working in an exceptionally corrosive coastal or chemical environment, you can optionally purge the enclosure with nitrogen or clean instrument air to protect the electronics from external atmospheric decay.
- What are the accepted international payment structures? We clear analytical equipment transactions via direct telegraphic wire transfers (T/T). For municipal water treatment overhauls, biogas plant
