FEATURES
The Gas-Explorer II
portable methane, and combined methane, carbon monoxide and
oxygen detectors are intrinsically safe, microprocessor based instruments designed to test ambient
air and flue gas over a wide temperature range.
These detectors have many features for easy and reliable operation:
•
Absolute Compliance
(Optional)
The instrument automatically calls for and requires calibration at the end of a pre-
determined interval.
•
Automatic Data Storage and Reports
Automatic storage of time and mode-stamped readings. Automatic storage of the last
24 calibrations. Automatic generation of reports.
•
Automatic Calibration
Calibration is performed automatically using Bascom-Turner's calibration gas.
•
One-Gas Calibration
(Optional)
Calibration of the thermal conductivity sensor (vs methane) is automatically carried
out with the One-Gas routine. Alternatively, the sensor can be calibrated with System
Gas.
•
Measurements Over the Full Range of Gas
The instruments detect methane over the full range of methane concentrations up to
100% GAS. Peak and current readings are displayed simultaneously.
•
Track Gas
A sensitive, calibrated scale with 20ppm resolution and quick response makes it easy
to find gas leaks.
•
Bar Holing
Peak and sustained bar-hole readings are automatically displayed after gas is pumped
for a precise, fixed time.
•
Purge
Measures the concentration of natural gas with resolution of 0.1% by volume as sensed
by the thermal conductivity sensor.
•
Automatic Sampling
An intrinsically safe pump automatically samples ambient air, flue gas, or bar hole gas.
•
Automatic Self-Tests
Automatic checks of battery, sensors, and pump. Tests for blockage and for tight
connection of probe to instrument.
•
Audible and Visual Alarms
Audible and visual alarms individually set. Continuous monitoring of natural gas, and
(optionally) CO and O

.
•
Easy-to-Use
Simple operation without complicated or confusing displays. A short “help” manual
is stored onboard.
