RKI Instruments, a gas detection equipment manufacturer, has introduced the GX-3R and the GX-3R Pro personal gas monitors<\/a> suitable for confined spaces. The products are approximately half the weight and size of the average 4 or 5 gas detectors and can fit in the palm of one\u2019s hand. Both gas monitors can be clipped comfortably in the OSHA recommended \u2018breathing zone\u2019, which is a 10-inch radius of the worker’s nose and mouth and requires that worker exposure monitoring air samples be collected there.<\/p>\n

The GX-3R is a 4 gas monitor, while the GX-3R Pro is capable of detecting five gas types separately. Using an RK Link app, the GX-3R Pro can be paired with a smartphone via Bluetooth and can be configured to automatically send notifications containing alarm status and GPS location whenever a worker goes into alarm. The app can also be used to show device readings, configure alarms and set bump test intervals.<\/p>\n

Both monitors utilize microsensors that have two active filaments to increase resistance to silicone poisoning\u2014if one of the filaments is damaged, the other takes over. The O2 sensor has a 3- to 5-year life span and the extended battery mode allows the monitors to be used continuously for up to 40 hours before recharging.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
