Tough, small and lightweight
November 1st 2006 Extending the family of Tetra portable gas monitors, the lightweight Tetra:3 from Crowcon Detection Instruments combines extremely rugged design with small size and simple operation. Designed for use in demanding industrial environments, the Tetra:3 has simple, single button operation which can be used with a gloved hand. Monitoring oxygen, toxic and flammable gases, the unit has a top mounted, backlit display showing all gas readings, diagnostics and battery life. Despite its compact size and low weight (less than 300g), the Tetra:3 is very rugged. Its shatterproof housing with rubber overmoulding, provides extra shock and vibration protection, and giving it water and dust resistance to IP67. If a hazard is detected, Tetra:3 gives rapid and effective warning with a powerful 95 dBA audible alarm, an extremely bright red/blue LED visual warning, and by vibrating. There are two levels of alarm, which can be set to have distinctive tones. More articles from Crowcon Detection Instruments Ltd: |
