BW Gas Alert Micro 5 IR 5 Gas Multi-Gas Detector
- Monitor up to 5 gases simultaneously
- Infrared sensor to monitor for CO2
- IP66/67 rating for moisture/dirt protection
- Concussion-proof boot for greater durability
- Optional attachable/removable sampling pump
GasAlertMicro 5 IR uses a non-dispersive infrared sensor to monitor carbon dioxide levels while simultaneously monitoring and displaying up to four additional atmospheric hazards including O2, LEL and a range of toxic gases.
Compact and lightweig ht, the GasAlertMicro 5 IR comes housed in a highly concussion-proof enclosure. Audible, visual and vibrator alarms activate in the event of a Low, High, TWA or STEL alarm condition. An optional motorized pump is available for remote sampling.
Beyond standard BW portable instrument features such as confidence beep, full function self test, automatic calibration and pass-code protection, the GasAlertMicro5 IR offers an extended selection of user-settable field options including: stealth mode, backlight options, selectable ppm resolution, STEL/TWA measurement choice, combustible correction factors, user-settable calibration gas concentrations, multi-language support.

- Smaller and over 50% lighter than competitive instruments
- Water-resistant design in an integral concussion-proof enclosure
- Continuous LCD shows simultaneous gas concentrations for five gases
- 0 - 1000 ppm measurement of VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds)
- Integral motorized pump option for remote sampling
- Two power options: AA alkaline or rechargeable hot-swappable battery pack
- Provides 95 dB alarm tone and two bright wide-angled alarm bars
- Equipped with internal vibrating alarm for high noise areas
- Multi-language support in English, French, German, Spanish, and Portuguese
- Three backlight options: standard- activates in low light (auto), in alarm (auto) and reactivates on-demand; alarm only- activates in alarm conditions and reactivates on-demand; stealth mode
- Four alarm levels: instantaneous Low and High Alarm for all gases; TWA (time-weighted average) and STEL (short-term exposure limit) for VOCs and toxic gases
- Simple automatic calibration procedure; compatible with BW MicroDock II automatic test and calibration station
- Records TWA, STEL, and maximum exposures to gas and displays readings on command
- User selectable field options include: PID correction factor, language selection, confidence beep, span level, set TWA/STEL calculation choice, set calibration due date, pass code protection, latching alarm, 'SAFE' display function, stealth mode, and selectable ppm resolution for some gases (e.g. SO2 0.1 ppm)
- Full function self-test of: sensor, battery and circuit integrity; and audible/visual alarms
2 months of continuous data at 5 second intervals via 32 MB Flash MMC card (64 MB and 128 MB cards also available); when full, the wrap-around feature replaces oldest data with most recent data
