Dual sensors
22 September 2018
The Tango TX1 from Industrial Scientific is a single gas monitor that uses DualSense.

A patent pending software algorithm uses the individual outputs from two sensors to produce a clearer picture of the actual gas concentration in the air.
According to Industrial Scientific regardless of how often you bump test your monitor to verify that it is working properly, the risk of both sensors failing at the same time, leaving you unprotected is nearly 300 times less than than a single sensor instrument failure. The risk of failure on any given day shifts from 1 in 375 to 1 in 110,000 for an instrument that is bump tested everyday and from 1 in 85 to 1 in 20,000 for an instrument that is only bump tested once a month.
