XplorIR - Identifies Gases
Threats from gases? Spectrometer provides clarification in seconds!
Recognizing toxic and hazardous gases is a high priority for emergency services. Accurately assessing the threat is important both for operational purposes and for the safety of the emergency services. Classically, simple detectors (PID, LEL/UEG, IMS, Mehrgas, CGI, MetOX, E-Chem, test tubes, etc.) are used. They have high sensitivity, but often insufficient discrimination (selectivity). Therefore, gases are classified at best until now. Also, false alarms often occur in the field because substances were detected incorrectly or not at all.
In order to assess the situation on site as accurately as possible and make fact-based decisions, supplementary equipment is needed to accurately determine (identify) the gases.
The new XplorIR identifies and quantifies existing gases and gas mixtures even in the low ppm range. Gas mixtures of up to six components can be identified and quantified. The result is clearly displayed and can be transferred to the optional app. The instrument displays additional information such as CAS, GHS, IDLH (equivalent to AEGL2) etc. This helps you to take quick and targeted action.
