Built around our high-quality micro-sensor technology, the GX-2003 is RKI’s smallest personal 5-in-1 gas monitor with a built in sample pump. Weighing only 11 ounces, it has many features which set the GX-2003 apart from the competition. For example, it can monitor the standard confined space gases (LEL combustibles, Oxygen deficiency, Carbon Monoxide, and Hydrogen Sulfide), however it can also measure 100% volume combustibles and dynamically display either % LEL, or % volume with its auto-ranging ability.
The GX-2003 is equipped with datalogging and a sizable memory capacity of up to 600 hours of log time. With this much capacity, the GX-2003 can store 100 alarm events, 100 trouble events, the last 20 calibrations, and up to 8 alarm trends where data is collected automatically every 5 seconds for 30 minutes before and after an alarm occurs. Calibration 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. Calibrations can be performed on all channels automatically or individually in single calibration mode. The GX-2003 is also compatible with the Data Cal 2000 calibration station for simultaneous, hands-free service of up to 10 instruments.

The Beacon 110 is a powerful, low cost fixed system controller for one point of gas detection. It is microprocessor controlled, versatile, simple to install and operate, and priced to be the industry’s best value single gas detection controller. It is capable of accepting RKI sensors directly for LEL level combustibles, Oxygen, Hydrogen Sulfide, or Carbon Monoxide. The Beacon 110 can also accept any 4-20 mA transmitter (2 or 3 wire, 24 VDC). Sensors can be mounted directly at the Beacon 110 housing, or can be wired remote from the controller.

The 10 amp rated relays are strong enough to directly power external alarms and horns. The digital display has backlighting and simultaneous readout of the gas type and concentration.

The Beacon 110 is also housed in a NEMA 4X rated case for a weather tight seal. This case design complies with lock out / tag out standards and can be fully secured. An external reset switch allows the alarm to be silenced from outside of the controller housing. The Beacon 110 ships complete with a wall mounting kit for easy installation.

RKI offers the industry’s widest selection of standard and toxic gas detection sensors, which can be utilized with the Beacon 110, providing gas monitoring protection for almost any application.

The Beacon 410 is a highly configurable, microprocessor-based, flexible and easy to use 4 channel gas monitor. It simultaneously displays the gas type, readings, and status for 4 channels of gas detection. It can monitor any combination of direct connect sensors (LEL combustibles, Oxygen, Hydrogen Sulfide, Carbon Monoxide, and Carbon Dioxide) as well as any 4-20mA transmitters.

Each channel has 3 fully configurable alarm points. A built-in silenceable audible alarm alerts you to alarm conditions. Each channel also has 2 dedicated fully configurable relays and there is a bank of common relays as well. The common relays can optionally be configured as additional channel relays allowing up to 3 alarm relays per channel.

Each channel provides a 4-20mA output signal. A digital Modbus interface for remote logging of data via a Modbus network is standard. A Min-Max feature retains high & low peak readings for review at any time.

Field calibration is made simple by the easy to use Calibration Mode. A fully configurable high visibility strobe is available as an option. The unit can be powered from 115/220 VAC, an external 24 VDC source, or a 24 VDC backup battery. A trickle charging battery backup feature is also available as an option.

All features and functions of the Beacon 410 are controlled by easy to use menus on the backlit LCD display. The form-C (SPDT) relay contacts are rated at 10A, 250V, reducing or eliminating the need for additional slave relays. All features of the Beacon 410 are built into the unit so you never need to purchase or maintain any “add-on” cards or components.

The RKI M2™ is a state-of-the-art transmitter that can operate as an independent, stand-alone system or as part of a system connected with an analog or digital signal to virtually any controller, PLC, or DCS. The M2 series detects LEL combustibles, oxygen, hydrogen sulfide, or carbon monoxide. It utilizes a magnetic wand technique for performing non-intrusive calibration. The M2 provides an automatic zero drift correction feature, which results in more stable readings and reduces the need for adjustments due to sensor aging.

The M2 housing does not need to be opened for zeroing or calibration, making it unnecessary to declassify the area for routine maintenance. Internal push-buttons can also be used if the housing is opened. It is designed so that a complete field calibration can be performed by one person. The stainless steel flame arrestor that covers the sensor (LEL, H2S, CO, or XP Oxygen) is water repellent with a special patented water resistant coating.

The M2 provides a 4-20 mA output in addition to a Modbus digital output. It also has two levels of alarm with relays, plus a fail alarm with a relay. A digital display of the gas concentration, as well as alarm and status lights can be viewed through the front window.

The M2 represents the latest leading edge technology in sensor / transmitters today.

The RKI "S" series gas sensor/transmitters are highly reliable and very cost effective basic 4-20 mA transmitters for detection of common gas hazards. The "S" series transmitters are available for LEL, Oxygen, H2S, CO, or for 0 - 500 ppm Hydrocarbon detection (for various fuels or solvents). The electronics are encased inside a potted package to avoid damage from mechanical abuse or corrosion, and the amplifier is installed inside an explosion-proof enclosure. Sensors for LEL, H2S, CO, and ppm HC are explosion-proof with flame arrestors. The Oxygen sensor utilizes an internal I.S. barrier, so all 5 versions are designed for use in hazardous atmospheres.
The only tools required to calibrate the "S" series are a voltmeter, screwdriver, and cal gas. The zero and calibration functions are performed by adjusting potentiometers on the amplifiers. The amplifier has test jacks for connection of a voltmeter for calibration purposes, and the sensor response is viewed on the voltmeter as a 100mV to 500mV signal. Field calibration can be performed easily and quickly by one person.
The "S" series transmitters can be used either indoors or outdoors. The flame arrestors utilize a patented coating which makes them water repellent, and splash guards are also available for use in very wet environments.
The transmitter operates from 24 VDC (10.5VDC to 30 VDC), and provides a 4-20mAsignal which can be connected to a wide variety of controllers.
