VOC Pro Transmitter • 7
Overview
The RKI Instruments, Inc. VOC Pro explosion-proof ambient air hazardous gas detector is
designed to detect a wide range of toxic gases in potentially hazardous environments. This
product is QPS certified as Class I, Division 1, Groups C and D and rated for Zone 1, Group
IIB. The VOC Pro features non-intrusive magnetic switches that allow for complete system
configuration, regular calibration, and product maintenance to be performed in the field,
without opening the enclosure and breaking the seal of the enclosure, thereby compromising
the explosion-proof rating of the device. Non-intrusive interface with the VOC Pro is made
possible by use of the magnetic tool included in the purchase of the device.
In this manual, the instructions reference the use of push-buttons, located on the front panel of
the device. In certain environments, the activation of the non-intrusive magnetic switches,
through the use of the magnetic tool, will replace the directive of the button-press actions. To
apply the magnetic tool, hold the tool to the side of the device enclosure adjacent to the push-
button that you wish to activate. When the magnetic switch is toggled, an on-screen indicator
will appear on the display screen, signifying that a connection was made.
The VOC Pro display screen will always show the present concentration of gas being detected
by the sensor assembly.
This document is an operation manual containing diagrams and step-by-step instructions for
the proper and safe installation, start-up, configuration, normal operation, and product
maintenance of the VOC Pro.
NOTE:
This document should be read in its entirety before the initial operation of the
