UltraRAE is a quick, spot-check monitor, typically used by occupational health, safety and environmental personnel. The combination filter tube and PID remove the disadvantages associated with colorimetric tubes and gas chromatographs. Simply insert a RAE-Sep™ tube and get either a total vapor reading or a specific compound reading, such as benzene in petroleum vapor or methylene chloride in organic solvent vapors. Applications include tank entry pre-screening during petrochemical plant maintenance, hazardous material response, marine spill response, and refinery down-stream monitoring.

MultiRAE Plus
PGM-50

 

Build your own personal gas monitor!
Designed as a "building block" system, the MultiRAE can be configured from a simple, inexpensive Oxygen/LEL monitor all the way to an affordable five gas monitor for total protection in toxic environments. The MultiRAE is easily reconfigured and upgraded to meet your changing needs. MultiRAE’s versatility allows it to replace a wide range of monitors, saving training and maintenance costs. The MultiRAE is quickly and easily changed from a sophisticated technician instrument to a simple text or display only monitor. The same monitor can be used as personal monitor, a hand-held sniffer, or area monitor for:
- industrial hygiene work
- emergency response
- confined space entry


Four Gases Are Less Than Total Protection
Most confined space monitors provide less than total protection because they miss many toxic vapors and gases. LEL sensors measure explosivity, not toxicity. Many Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) are potentially toxic at levels that are well below the sensitivity of the LEL sensors found in most multi-gas monitors. For example by the time that LEL sensors even respond to gasoline vapors the air is already toxic! The MultiRAE accurately measures low levels of VOCs without the annoyance of false alarms that are so prevalent with other "broad-band" sensors. Its' patented VOC monitor, measures 0 - 2000 ppm of VOCs’ while providing continuous display and alarms for worker protection. Alarms can also be set for Short Term Exposure Levels (STEL), Time Weighted Average (TWA), Peaks and Minimums. The MultiRAE displays the exact airborne VOC levels so that you do not have to guess when to put on respiratory protection. With the MultiRAE you work safer, more efficiently and more comfortably because you can go longer without respiratory protection with complete confidence you are working in clean air.

Easy to Use
- Compact size and light weight for use in tight confined spaces
- Easy one button calibration with auto zero capability
- Calibrates with gas you already own
- Runs on alkaline, NiCd batteries or continuously when plugged into charger or 12 V automotive adapter
- Available as diffusion unit or with internal sample draw pump
- Internal pump provides quick response and remote sampling with 10-12 hours of run time
- Built-in pump eliminates need to charge and connect separate pump module
- Programmable alarms can be changed on the MultiRAE or from easy to use Windows® software
- Internal memory holds response factors for 37 common LEL gases and 60 common VOCs

The AreaRAE is a one- to five-sensor gas detector equipped with a wireless RF (radio frequency) modem which allows the unit to communicate and transmit readings and other information on a real-time basis with a remotely located base controller. In stand-alone operation, the AreaRAE is a rugged, weather-resistant, portable monitor that can run over 24 hours on either rechargeable Lithium-ion or alkaline batteries. It is also the first “lunchbox”- type multi-sensor instrument able to include a photoionization detector (PID) for parts-per-million measurement of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), as well as LEL, O2 and up to two electrochemical toxic sensors to measure specific toxic substances such as CO and H2S. The RF modem allows real-time data transmissions with a base controller located up to two miles away from the AreaRAE detector. A personal computer can be used as the base station for an AreaRAE system. The standard ProRAE Remote software used to control AreaRAE systems is capable of monitoring the input of up to 32 remotely located monitors.
