Description

72-FA-A-A10 GX-Force Portable 4 Gas Monitor, LEL / O2 / CO / H2S, AC Adapter, Belt Clip, Rubber Nozzle,10ft Hose/Probe by RKI Instruments

With the GX-Force, you have multiple tools in one instrument. Having 2 operating modes, the GX-Force can be used for confined space, safety monitoring in its Normal Operating mode. A Leak Check mode is the solution for all leak investigations.

The GX-Force is RKI's smallest personal 1-4 gas monitor with a strong built-in sample pump capable of a 100' sampling range. Weighing only 9.8 ounces, the GX-Force can monitor the standard confined space gases (LEL combustibles, Oxygen content, Carbon Monoxide, and Hydrogen Sulfide). Built around high-quality micro-sensor technology, which are compatible with the GX-3R, GX-3R Pro, 04 Series, and Gaswatch 3 instruments.

The GX-Force's large LCD display shows all gas readings, battery level, current time, and will automatically backlight in alarm conditions. Standard alarm types include vibration, visual, and audible alarms, which can be set to latching or non-latching. Controlled by a microprocessor, the GX-Force continuously checks itself for sensor connections, low battery, circuit trouble, low flow, and calibration errors. The GX-Force operates 30 hours on a Li-ion battery.

Calibration and bump test intervals and reminders are user adjustable and can be set to either go into alarm or to lock the user out of normal measurement mode once a calibration period has expired. Calibrations can be performed automatically or individually in single calibration mode. Calibration can be done individually or in a group.
