The Honeywell Searchpoint Optima Plus is a robust, infrared point gas detector designed to detect hydrocarbons in potentially explosive environments. With a legacy spanning over 40 years, Honeywell Analytics has installed more than 100,000 units worldwide, making it a trusted solution for both onshore and offshore applications.
Equipped with a flow housing, it ensures accurate and consistent gas monitoring, even in environments with varying airflow.
This detector offers a combination of rapid response times, fail-safe operation, and reduced maintenance compared to traditional electro-catalytic detectors. Its advanced diagnostics and false alarm rejection technology ensure maximum operational efficiency and personnel safety while keeping costs low.




The Searchpoint Optima Plus offers reliable detection of a wide range of hydrocarbon gases, including solvents, ensuring versatile application coverage. Its optional HART® over 4-20mA output enables seamless integration with existing systems. The absence of moving parts enhances stability and long-term reliability, while self-compensating optics improve measurement accuracy. Additional features include remote gas testing capability, certification for both North American and European hazardous zones, and a contaminated optics warning system with dynamic heating control to prevent condensation. Furthermore, reduced power consumption and integral event logging contribute to efficient and cost-effective operations.
