The world’s smallest 4-gas monitor
Weighing only 99.79 grams, it clips comfortably within a worker’s breathing zone. Both the GX-3R and the GX-3R Pro utilize a new generation of micro sensors:
- The new LEL sensor has two active filaments to increase its resistance to silicone poisoning
- The new O2 sensor has a 3 to 5 year life span
- H2S and CO are now monitored by one combination micro-sensor
- Available with a hydrogen compensated CO sensor (as LEL/O2/CO)
- Non-compliance indicator
- The sensors are field replaceable: Easy to change in less than 60 seconds
Weighing only 129.84 grams, it fits in the palm of your hand! In addition to the four confined space gases (CO, H2S, LEL, O2) the GX-3R Pro has a 5th channel for toxic and infrared sensors that can monitor:
- ppm of CO2
- % volume of CO2
- SO2
- CO sensor (with hydrogen compensation)
- HCN, NO2, NH3, or CL2
Additionally, the GX-3R Pro comes equipped with:
- Two interchangeable sensor slots providing flexible configurations
- Non-compliance indicator
- Man-down alarm
- Panic alarm
Stay Connected!
The GX-3R Pro has Bluetooth Connectivity
- Connect to the RK Link app to view direct instrument readings
- Adjust alarms and instrument settings
- Configure it to send alarm notifications and location to your desired contacts in case of emergency
- Available on iOS and Android
OSHA defines the breathing zone as a ten inch radius around the worker’s nose and mouth, and requires that worker exposure monitoring air samples be collected in the breathing zone. Air sampling filters may be attached to the collar or lapel. Traditionally this means only a single gas monitor would be small enough for a worker to practically wear a gas monitor ‘In the breathing zone’. Now there is a 4 gas monitor smaller than many single gas monitors.
The GX-3R is the worlds smallest 4 gas monitor weighing only 99.79 grams and can comfortably be clipped within a worker’s breathing zone. It simultaneously monitors and displays LEL combustibles, O2, CO (Hydrogen compensated CO also available), and H2S.
The GX-3R represents the latest evolution of gas detection technology utilizing a new generation of micro sensors. The LEL sensor has a unique design with two active filaments in one sensor to increase it’s resistance to silicone poisoning. If one filament gets poisoned the second filament takes over. The new O2 sensor is electro chemical with a 3 to 5 year life span. H2S and CO are now available in a combo micro sensor.
Safety supervisors will appreciate the non-compliance indicator. The instrument flashes it’s 3 LED lights every 30 seconds in the following conditions; if the instrument has not been bump tested, or if calibration is due, or if there was a gas alarm event. The 3 LED lights will continue to flash once every 30 seconds until the non-compliance condition has been resolved. The 30 second interval is adjustable.
