GfG’s (UK) new intrinsically safe G460 is a rugged, compact instrument for simultaneous detection of up to 6 gases. Installed sensor options include infrared (NDIR) for CO2 and PID for VOC measurements. A full 3-year warranty is provided on most commonly used sensors, which reduces the cost of ownership over the lifetime of the instrument. The G460 offers completely automatic calibration, one-button operation, top mounted display and interchangeable battery packs for up to 25 hours of continuous operation. The rechargeable NiMH battery pack can even be equipped with optional “flash light” LEDs.

The large, high-resolution top display can be flipped 180° by pressing two buttons. Its watertight design incorporates an impact proof, rubberised housing to meet the toughest requirements.

The data-logger records over 1,800 gas concentrations and alarms. The data can be downloaded to a PC for viewing, storage and evaluation.

A detachable, self-powered pump is available for sampling confined spaces prior to entry. It allows operation of the instrument in diffusion or sample-draw mode.

GfG develops and manufactures a full line of portable gas detectors, fixed systems and respiratory airline monitors to provide protection from combustible gases and vapours, oxygen hazards and toxic gases.
