FirstCheck+ is the first ppb multi gas detector to combine volatile organic compound (VOC) detection with explosive gas (LEL) sensors. Its multi gas sensors detect oxygen, hydrogen sulphide, carbon monoxide and explosive gases, using a highly sensitive PID detector.

The FirstCheck+ handheld multi gas detector provides unrivalled resistance to humidity, due to its unique Fence Electrode Technology. The instrument's PID capabilities have received independent verification as the most sensitive, accurate PID available.

FirstCheck+ accurately detects VOCs from 1 ppb to 10,000 ppm, a range unmatched by other multi gas detector. The FirstCheck+ multi gas detector enables the detection of many gases that are toxic at low ppb levels.

The FirstCheck+ gives rapid response at the scene of an accident or emergency enabling fast action to be taken. FirstCheck+ is the multi gas detector of choice for applications including emergency response, confined space entry, weapons of mass destruction and hazardous materials.
