The RKI Instruments 72-5235RK is a portable gas detector designed for precise PPM/LEL hydrocarbon detection in environmental and industrial settings. This robust instrument offers a methane elimination switch for accurate readings in varied atmospheres, and an adjustment lockout switch to prevent tampering. With auto calibration and single gas calibration, the Eagle ensures quick and easy testing, while its datalogging capabilities support thorough worksite atmosphere analysis.
Key Features & Highlights
- PPM/LEL Hydrocarbon Detection: Accurate measurement of hydrocarbon concentrations in parts per million or lower explosive limit.
- Methane Elimination Switch: Isolates methane for more precise detection of other hydrocarbons.
- Adjustment Lockout Switch: Prevents unauthorized tampering to maintain device integrity and safety.
- Auto Calibration & Single Gas Calibration: Simplifies calibration procedures for efficient field use.
- Datalogging Capabilities: Records data for research, evaluation, and analysis of worksite atmospheres.
- Rugged Enclosure: Polycarbonate and polyester housing is resistant to RFI, EMI, chemicals, and weather; operates in rain or up to 2 inches of water.
- Long Battery Life: Up to 30 hours of continuous operation with alkaline or Ni-cad batteries.
- Long-Life Pump: Approximately 6,000 hours of service, with a range of up to 125 feet (with filters) and low flow shut-off/alarm.
- Fast Response & Alarms: Response time up to 30 seconds for most gases; dual alarms with 85 dB audible alerts and high-intensity LED visual alerts.
Applications
Ideal for environmental testing, industrial hygiene, confined space entry, and safety monitoring in facilities where hydrocarbon gases may be present. The Eagle’s durability and long battery life make it suitable for demanding field use.
Includes: Shoulder strap, hydrophobic probe, 5-foot hose, and alkaline batteries.
