Gas Detection For Life

The GX-Force is RKI’s smallest personal 1-4 gas monitor with a strong internal sample pump capable of a 100’ sampling range. Weighing only 9.8 ounces, the GX-Force can monitor the standard confined space gases (LEL combustibles, Oxygen, Carbon Monoxide, and Hydrogen Sulfide). Utilizing the same micro-sensor technology, which are compatible with the GX-3R,GX-3R Pro, 04 Series, and Gas watch 3 instruments.

Additional Information

 N/A With the GX-Force, you have multiple tools in one instrument. Having 2 operating modes, the GX-Force can be used for confined space, safety monitoring in its Normal Operating mode. A Leak Check mode (available Q4)is the solution for leak investigations. In Leak Check Mode, the GX-Force can monitor for combustibles in the ppm range.

The GX-Force operates 30 hours on a Li-ion battery, and has a large LCD display showing all gas readings, battery level, current time and automatically backlights in Alarm conditions. Standard Alarm types include vibration, visual, and audible Alarms, which can be set to latching or non-latching. Controlled by a microprocessor, the GX-Force continuously checks itself for sensor connections, low battery, circuit trouble, low flow, and calibration errors.

Calibration and bump test intervals and reminders are user adjustable and can be set to either go into Alarm or to lock the user out of normal measurement mode once a calibration period has expired. Calibration can be done individually or in a group.
