Confined Space Entry
Portable Multi-Gas Detector
RECON/4 is a compact portable gas detector with a color LCD. It can monitor for
CO, H2S, O2 and combustible gas simultaneously. The instrument features STEL,
TWA and two instant alarms with audio/visual and vibratory indicators, rechargeable battery, and one-button operation. The belt-clip-style instrument is designed
to be intrinsically safe and weighs about 6 ounces (200 g). — ENMET Corp.,

Oxygen Deficiency Monitor
The Air Check O2 monitor is ideal in cryogenic gas storage areas, freezers and
other locations where low oxygen levels may pose a hazard to personnel. The
instrument has a local readout and may be linked to fire alarm systems. The
system has optional user-settable alarms and uses a long-lasting zirconium
oxide sensor, and responds within seconds.

Mercury Cleanup
The company’s remote and portable solutions for Mercury Spill Cleanup meet
EPA and ATSDR cleanup levels. The kit offers a longer sensor life than the
model 431, battery-powered sensor regeneration and on-board data logging
( 20,000 data points). It includes auto time/date stamp and USB data output.
The complete mercury spill kit also offers an optional vacuum.

PPM Methane Detector
Sensit® HXG-2d is capable of sensing many combustible gases such as
methane, propane and natural gas in the ppm range. The display shows ppm
and automatically switches to LEL percent (maximum 70%) for accurate leak
detection and analysis. An electronic tick control helps to eliminate false readings from interfering gases. The detector also features simple maintenance,
push-button field calibration and a long battery life. — Sensit Technologies,
219/465-2700, www.gasleaksensors.com
Gas Detection Service
iNet is a software-based service. It increases safety, providing visibility into
alarms, exposure and usage. It also keeps gas detectors working without costly
and time-consuming maintenance. iNet subscribers do not have to buy the
gas detectors. Instead, they receive Gas Detection as a Service.

Manhole Ventilation
The Manhole Ventilation Passthru (MVP) maintains and re-directs air flow with
minimal restrictions into manholes, sewers and tanks. Weighing 11 lbs, it combines a low profile air vent, 90° elbow and built-in mounting in one unit. A collapsible duct springs back into shape once the worker is through the opening.
The MVP is made of bright yellow, recyclable, polyethylene for heavy use and
temperature extremes. — Allegro Industries, 800/622-3530 Gas Detection with Transmitter
An SEC 3000 sensor coupled with an SEC 3100 transmitter reacts instantly to
dangerous gas levels. The digital transmitter incorporates a plug-in memory
stick that logs a permanent record of actual gas levels, remembering times,
concentrations, trouble signals, service interruptions, and more. Color-coded
LEDs change from green to yellow to red as gas concentrations rise.

Air Ventilators
VAF-Series ventilators are designed for most confined space applications. The VAF-Series is portable and lightweight. Centrally located handles allow for balanced
maneuverability, and anti-skid rubber feet provide steadfast operation. They are
available in 8", 12", and 20" models, with various power sources. CFM ratings range
from 848cfm to 8000cfm. — Americ Corp., 800/364-4642
Fixed Gas Detector
The 2-Wire Model accepts all Toxic and Oxygen SensAlert Plus Sensors. The 3-wire
model accepts all SensAlert Plus Sensors. Both are able to be shop or field calibrated. The sensors can be hot-swapped in Hazardous Classified Areas. Maintenance
and troubleshooting are significantly reduced with the I.S. Sensor Head. Data is
time stamped and the unit displays percent sensor life remaining based on sensor
and environmental specific variables. — Sensidyne LP, 800/451-9444,
