MATHESON Select General Purpose Portable Hazardous Gas Detector

The MATHESON Select General Purpose Gas Detector effectively monitors the workplace air for potentially dangerous gas leaks from tubing, equipment, containers, reaction vessels, cylinder valves, and pressurized systems. The Model functions as a personal gas leak detector for production, QC, maintenance, and engineering personnel in a wide variety of process and laboratory locations and environments. Personnel no longer need be within the “sphere of influence’’ of a large multipoint gas detection system. They can now take their personal gas leak detectors with them, on site where needed. Since personal protection is only as good as the sampling procedure used, different areas should be checked for gas leaks that could lead to potential worker exposure.

Features

- Weighing only 7-1/2 ounces, this truly portable and personal detector can be conveniently carried
- The unit continuously samples the air for hazardous gases and vapors. It sounds an audible alarm and flashes an LED when a potentially dangerous concentration of gas is detected
- The Model sensor design is sensitive to a wide variety of gases and vapors
- The Model also functions as a point source leak detector for process and instrumentation gases
- The Model has applications in leak detection of valves, fittings, purge assemblies and other hardware during cylinder changes in gas cabinets
- The Model can be used to detect leaks from process vessels, storage tanks, reaction vessels, and associated piping
- The Model can be used to sample workplace air in remote and/or enclosed unmonitored areas before workers enter them and other areas for leaks of potentially hazardous gases to help ensure a safe environment both before and during work tasks
