Overview |
|
The UltraRAE is a
quick, spot-check monitor typically
used by occupational health, safety,
and environmental personnel. The
combination filter tube and
Photoionization Detector (PID)
removes the disadvantages associated
with colorimetric tubes and gas
chromatographs. The UltraRAE has the
advantage of providing a fast,
continuous reading and datalogging
of concentrations of Benzene,
Methylene Chloride, or Butadiene.
Applications include tank entry
pre-screening during refinery and
plant maintenance, hazardous
material response, marine spill
response, and refinery down-stream
monitoring. |

Key
Features |
|
|
-
The only compound
specific monitor with
combination of
interchangeable
separation tubes and PID
-
3-10 times faster
analysis compared to
conventional tube or
portable gas
chromatograph methods:
Results obtained in
seconds (less than 75
seconds) rather than
minutes; detects benzene
down to 0.1 ppm in 60
seconds
-
Built-in Bar Code Reader
allows easy switching
between total VOCs and
benzene-specific
measurements
-
3,000 point datalogging
storage capacity for
data download to PC
compatible with Windows
98, NT, 2000, and XP
-
Excellent range and
linearity: Good down to
0.1 ppm and up to over
200 ppm benzene (no more
GC column overload
problems); more accurate
than gas detection tubes
-
Internal pump allows you
to sample deep (up to
30ft or 10m) into a
confined space; prevents
liquid flow into the
monitor and warns if
sample tubing is blocked
or crimped
-
Inexpensive analysis
using low cost RAE-SepTM
tubes in place of gas
detection tubes
-
Cheaper than portable GC
and no annual factory
calibration
-
Large keys are operable
even with 3 layers of
gloves
-
Large easy-to-read back
light display that is
alarm-, darkness-, or
manually-activated
-
Optional vibration alarm
-
Snap-in rechargeable or
alkaline battery pack
provides 10 hours of
operation with smart
battery charging
