1. General Information
The AreaRAE is a portable multi-gas monitor that provides
real-time measurements and activates alarm signals when
exposure exceeds preset limits. The programmable monitor
contains up to five sensors that monitor toxic gases, oxygen,
combustible gases, and radiation (Gamma models only) for
workers in hazardous environments. Depending on the type of
sensor installed, the AreaRAE is capable of monitoring:
•
Volatile Organic Compounds
PID Sensor using 10.6 eV or 11.7 eV UV lamp
•
Inorganic Compounds
Substance Specific Electrochemical Sensor(s)
•
Combustible Gases
0 to 100% LEL range with a catalytic bead sensor
•
Oxygen Concentrations
