The GX-6000’s rugged, reliable, and easy-to-use design makes it ideally suited for a wide range of applications, including sewage treatment plants, utility manholes, tunnels, hazardous waste sites, power stations, petrochemical refineries, mines, paper mills, drilling rigs, and fire fighting stations. The GX-6000 offers a full range of features including:
• VOC Monitoring. • Sample-Drawing pump with up to 50 foot range. • Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) for complete and understandable information at a glance. • Ultrabright Alarm LED's. • Distinctive audible/vibrating alarms for dangerous gas conditions and audible alarms for unit malfunction. • Microprocessor Control for reliability, ease of use, and advanced capabilities. • Data Logging functions. • Alarm trend data. • STEL and TWA (for high range PID only) and over range alarms. • Peak reading. • Built-in time function. • Lunch break feature. • RF shielded high impact plastic case. • CSA classification for Class I, Division I, Groups A, B, C, & D hazardous atmospheres.
WARNING: The Model GX-6000 detects elevated levels of VOC gases which can be dangerous or life threatening. When using the GX-6000, you must follow the instructions and warnings in the manual to assure proper and safe operation of the unit and to minimize the risk of personal injury. Be sure to maintain and periodically calibrate the GX-6000 as described in the manual.
