GasAlertMicro5 PID portable gas
detector simultaneously monitors up to
five atmospheric hazards including volatile
organic compounds (VOCs), oxygen,
combustible gas (% LEL), and a wide
selection of individual electrochemical
toxic sensors. Compact and lightweight,
GasAlertMicro5 PID activates audible, visual and vibrating alarms in the event of a low, high, TWA or STEL alarm condition.
VOCs present multiple potential threats
in the workplace environment. VOCs
are characterized by their tendency to
evaporate easily at room temperature
and include substances such as solvents,
paint thinners, benzene, butadiene,
hexane, toluene, as well as vapors
associated with fuels such as gasoline,
diesel, heating oil, kerosene, and jet fuel.
The GasAlertMicro5 PID’s integrated
photoionization detector (PID) enables
sensitive broad spectrum monitoring of
volatile organic contaminants.
Highly configurable to suit a range of
applications, GasAlertMicro5 PID comes
as a diffusion or pumped instrument; with
either alkaline or NiMH rechargeable
hot-swappable battery pack and has
optional datalogging capabilities. Standard
features include confidence beep,
automatic calibration, full function self test,
and an extended selection of user-settable
field options.
This kit contains everything you need for gas detection in confined spaces. The foam-lined carrying case includes the BW Gas Alert Micro 5-Gas Detector, 34L cylinder of calibration gas required for sensors installed, 1.0 LPM calibration regulator (male) and tubing, Cradle Charger Rechargeable Battery Pack (includes sealed rechargeable nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) battery pack and slip-in charger cradle with 120/230V AC AC/DC adaptor).
Features:
Smaller and over 50% lighter than competitive instruments
Water-resistant design in an integral concussion-proof enclosure
Continuous LCD shows simultaneous gas concentrations for five gases
0 - 1000 ppm measurement of VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds)
Integral motorized pump option for remote sampling
Two power options: AA alkaline or rechargeable hot-swappable
battery packs
Provides 95 dB alarm tone and two bright wide-angled alarm bars
Equipped with internal vibrating alarm for high noise areas
Multi-language support in English, French, German, Spanish, and
Portuguese
Three backlight options: standard-activates in low light (auto), in
alarm (auto) and reactivates on-demand; alarm only-activates in
alarm conditions and reactivates on-demand; stealth mode
Four alarm levels: instantaneous Low and High Alarm for all gases;
TWA (time-weighted average) and STEL (short-term exposure limit)
for VOCs and toxic gases
Simple automatic calibration procedure; compatible with BW
MicroDock II automatic test and calibration station
Records TWA, STEL, and maximum exposures to gas and displays
readings on command
User selectable fi eld options include: PID / combustible correction
factor, language selection, confidence beep, span level, set TWA/
STEL calculation choice, set calibration due date, pass code
protection, latching alarm, “SAFE” display function, stealth mode,
and selectable ppm resolution for some gases (e.g. SO2 0.1 ppm)
Full function self-test of: sensor, battery and circuit integrity; and
audible/visual alarms
