GasCheck

GasCheckDesigned for use in flammable areas and for the search and location of flammable gas leaks, GasCheck is the only ATEX approved, Intrinsically Safe gas leak detector. Its micro-thermal conductivity sensor gives fast, effective detection of almost any gas or gas mixture.

GasCheck is conveniently calibrated against helium - the most commonly used tracer gas - and is particularly sensitive to ammonia, argon, butane, hydrogen, SF6 and refrigerants. Its Intrinsic Safety provides an ideal tool for use in areas classified as zone zero flammable, and can safely detect flammable gases.

Robust, reliable and easy-to-use, the instrument’s LCD display, LED indicator and audible sounder clearly indicate the detected leak. When switched on GasCheck automatically zeros to the ambient air and is ready to detect immediately.

GasCheck is available in two distinct versions, the 3000is and 5000is with varied capabilities:

GasCheck 3000is
An easy-to-use leak detector for the rapid detection of gas leaks. The 3000is provides an ideal tool for use in areas classified as zone zero flammable and can safely detect flammable gases.

GasCheck 5000is
Advanced software features of the 5000is include data logging with a date and time stamp, a choice of readout units ppm or ml/sec, and an adjustable alarm level. The 5000is can also download its data logged results to a PC for analysis via an infrared link. The accompanying software allows for the creation of graphs from the downloaded data and printed reports.
