The GX-3R Gas Detector embodies these qualities, earning its place as the world&#8217;s smallest 4 gas monitor. Weighing a mere 3.52 ounces, this detector can be conveniently clipped within a worker&#8217;s breathing zone (measuring 2.2\u201d W x 2.55\u201d H x 1.02\u201d D). It simultaneously monitors and displays crucial gas levels, including LEL combustibles, O2, CO (with hydrogen-compensated CO also available), and H2S.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Price Starting at $520.00<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Compact and Lightweight<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The GX-3R&#8217;s compactness and feather-light weight of 3.52 ounces (approx. 100 g) make it an excellent choice for workers. Its small dimensions (2.2\u201d W x 2.55\u201d H x 1.02\u201d D) ensure comfort when worn within the breathing zone, boosting mobility and overall user comfort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"343\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gas-sensing.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/09\/compare-gx3r.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1032\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gas-sensing.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/09\/compare-gx3r.png 700w, https:\/\/www.gas-sensing.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/09\/compare-gx3r-300x147.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Comprehensive Gas Monitoring<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This versatile detector excels at monitoring and displaying a range of gases vital for safety. It keeps a watchful eye on LEL combustibles, O2, CO (with the option of hydrogen-compensated CO), and H2S. Its comprehensive monitoring capability ensures that workers remain safeguarded against multiple potential hazards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Advanced Sensor Technology<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The GX-3R employs cutting-edge micro sensors that deliver enhanced performance and longevity. Notable examples include the LEL sensor, which features two active filaments to resist silicone poisoning, and the O2 sensor, boasting a remarkable lifespan of 3 to 5 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Non-Compliance Indicator<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This instrument is equipped with a non-compliance indicator that, under specific conditions (such as when bump tests are overdue, calibration is due, or a gas alarm event occurs), flashes 3 LED lights every 30 seconds. This feature ensures that safety supervisors can promptly spot and address compliance issues, enhancing overall safety protocols.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Enhanced Worker Safety<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By being small enough to clip within a worker&#8217;s breathing zone, the GX-3R ensures precise air sampling right where it matters most\u2014around the worker&#8217;s nose and mouth. This targeted monitoring significantly enhances worker safety by providing real-time data on potentially harmful gas levels in their immediate environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Multi-Gas Monitoring in a Single Device<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unlike traditional single gas monitors, the GX-3R is a multi-talented tool capable of monitoring four different gases simultaneously. This offers a cost-effective and efficient solution for diverse gas detection needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Standard Accessories<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Alligator clip<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Protective rubber boot<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Charger<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Calibration adapter<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Applications<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The GX-3R shines in various applications, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Personal monitoring<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Confined spaces<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Refineries\/petrochemical<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Utilities<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Oil and Gas<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Water\/wastewater<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fire services<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Construction<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Datalogging<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>10 seconds = 10 hours<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>5 minutes = 300 hours<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>10 minutes = 600 hours<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The instrument logs user ID, station ID, Calibration &amp; bump test history, Alarm Events &amp; Alarm Interval Trends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Specifications<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Gas Detection Ranges and Alarm Set Points:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Carbon Monoxide (H2 Compensated):<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Detection Range: 0-2000 ppm<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1st alarm: 25.0 ppm<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>2nd alarm: 50.0 ppm<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>3rd alarm: 1200.0 ppm<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>TWA alarm: 25.0 ppm<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>STEL alarm: 200.0 ppm<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Over alarm: 2000.0 ppm<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S):<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Detection Range: 0-200 ppm<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1st alarm: 5.0 ppm<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>2nd alarm: 30.0 ppm<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>3rd alarm: 100.0 ppm<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>TWA alarm: 1.0 ppm<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>STEL alarm: 5.0 ppm<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Over alarm: 200.0 ppm<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Combustible Gases:<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Detection Range: 0-100% LEL<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1st alarm: 10% LEL<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>2nd alarm: 25% LEL<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>3rd alarm: 50% LEL<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Over alarm: 100% LEL<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Oxygen (O2):<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Detection Range: 0-40% Vol<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Low 1 alarm: 19.5%<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Low 2 alarm: 18.0%<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>High alarm: 23.5%<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Over alarm: 40.0%<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Alarms:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Gas Alarm Methods: Flashing LEDs, continuous buzzer, flashing gas value, vibration<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Trouble Alarm Methods: Flashing LEDs, intermittent buzzer, display of error message<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Common Specifications:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Sample Method: Diffusion<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Response Time: T90 in 30 seconds<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Datalogging: 10 sec. intervals = 1- hrs. 5 min. intervals = 300 hrs, 10min. intervals = 600 hours<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Power Source Options: Lithium-ion battery, Approx. 25 hours after a 3-hour full charge<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Display: Digital LCD displays with 7 segment plus 14 segment plus icon<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Operating Temp. &amp; Humidity: -20\u00b0C ~ +50\u00b0C [ -4\u00b0F ~ +122\u00b0F ], 10 to 90% RH, non-condensing (continuous environment); -40\u00b0C ~ +60\u00b0C [ -40\u00b0F ~ +140\u00b0F ], 0 to 95% RH, non-condensing (temporary environment, 15 minutes)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dimensions: 2.2\u201d W x 2.55\u201d H x 1.02\u201d D (Approx. 58 W x 65 H x 26 D mm), 3.52 ounces (approx. 100 g) without rubber boot; 2.4\u201d W x 2.63\u201d H x 1.06\u201d D (Approx. 61 W x 67 H x 27 D mm), 3.70 ounces (approx. 105 g) with rubber boot<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Case Material: Dust and water resistant to IP-66\/68 (2m,1h) approval.
