Gas-Pro TK Dual Range Portable Monitor by Crowcon
Hydrocarbons stored in inerted environments create a particular flammable gas detection challenge, whether during transport at sea or storage on shore. Gas-Pro TK dual-range portable monitor is designed for use in this specialist environment where standard gas detectors just won't work whether tank purging or gas freeing.
Tank check functionality summary
- Tank specialist - Designed to perform in the challenging inerted tank environments
- Dual IR sensor - Detects the spectrum of possible flammable gas concentrations from high %vol to low %LEL. Auto-ranges, switching between %LEL and %vol as gas concentration demands. Notifies you of auto-ranging as it happens.
- Monitors oxygen - Know when it's safe to load fuel. Know when it's safe for operators to enter
- High H2S sensor option - Understand possible risks if gases vent during purging helps inform you of potential risk from pyrophores
- Alarms disabled in tank mode - High gas levels are to be expected, so alarms can be misleading and annoying
- Automatic flow plate recognition - Integrated pump turns on as soon as the flow plate is applied. Tank samples can be drawn from up to 98.4ft.
Safety
- Mode indication - Clearly indicated when in Tank Check mode, avoiding potential confusion
- Confirmed alarm status - In Tank Check mode, alarms are disabled. You must acknowledge this before you can proceed
- Simple single button operation - Simple one-handed operation. Easy to learn and remember. Easy to use while wearing gloves
- Light - At 12oz, it is light enough to clip to your belt, overalls, or a Gas-Pro harness, so it's easy for the technician to keep with them during their working day
- Black - Part of the Gas-Pro range of detectors, Gas-Pro TK units are black to avoid any possible confusion
Personal monitor functional summary
- Personal gas detector - Gas-Pro TK has full Gas-Pro functionality, so can double up as a personal detector, as required. Full range of alarms are enabled: audible (>95dB); visual (red and blue flashing LED); tactile (vibrating).
- Confined space preentry check function - Assists you through the pre-entry check process
