Wireless Sensor Platform Ruggedized for Industrial Applications and First Responders
New AreaRAE Electrochemical Sensors
Three new chemical-specific electrochemical sensors for the AreaRAE wireless sensor system are now available: Hydrogen Chloride (HCl), Hydrogen Fluoride (HF) and high-range Carbon Monoxide (CO). In addition, both the standard AreaRAE wireless five-gas and the AreaRAE Gamma wireless toxic gas and radiation monitors are now available in rugged stainless-steel housing. The three new electrochemical sensors add versatility to the AreaRAE platform by providing specific gas detection capability.
The HCl sensor is designed for use in acidic atmospheres, semiconductor manufacturing, rocket-fueling operations and hazardous material applications.
The HF sensor is designed for use in oil refineries, petrochemical plants, nuclear power plants, department of energy applications and emergency response.
The high-range CO sensor is designed for steel mills and metallurgy open-flame applications and can measure up to 2,000 parts per million, four times the high range of traditional carbon monoxide sensors.
The stainless-steel AreaRAE options are designed for more rugged deployments in hazardous environments that require intrinsic safety certification and where the potential for sparks must be eliminated. Applications for AreaRAE Steel in the stainless-steel case include off-shore oil platforms, refineries and first response. The AreaRAE in the stainless-steel housing was selected for deployment by the National Guard WMD Civil Support Teams in all 50 states.
New AreaRAE Bi-Pod Accessory
The new AreaRAE Bi-Pod accessory elevates an AreaRAE gas monitor to a height of 20 inches (50 cm). The Bi-Pod stand is intended for industrial environments where the ground is often covered with water and solvents that may potentially damage an AreaRAE unit. Key features include:
Stainless Steel construction
-Three piece construction for rapid assembly
-Can be disassembled for easy storage
-Elevated handle allows unit and stand to be easily transported
