PID Wireless 6-Gas Monitor offers real-time reading access.

Press Release Summary:




Certified for Class I, Division 1, Groups A/B/C/D, T4 hazardous atmospheres, portable MultiRAE Benzene delivers benzene-specific snapshot. Included 6-tube cartridge (RAE SepTube™ Cartridge) operates in conjunction with integrated photoinozation (PID) chamber. Benzene measurement range is 0.1–200 ppm, and RAE SepTube Cartridge filters out other VOCs and gases to eliminate cross-interference. One- to 5-sensor module supports interchangeable electrochemical, combustible, and PID sensors.

Honeywell Introduces Multirae Benzene PID Wireless Portable Gas Monitor



Industry’s First Six-Gas, Benzene-Specific Monitor Promises New Level of Safety Protection for Confined Space and Hazardous Site Workers



San Jose, Calif. – Honeywell (NYSE: HON), the leader in wirelessly connected gas and radiation detection solutions, today introduced MultiRAE Benzene, the industry’s first wireless portable six-gas monitor with a benzene-specific, snapshot measurement designed to protect worker safety in hazardous environments.



The new MultiRAE Benzene includes an innovative six-tube cartridge—called RAE SepTube™ Cartridge—that operates in conjunction with the unit’s photoinozation (PID) chamber. The MultiRAE Benzene measures benzene in the 0.1 to 200 ppm range while the RAE SepTube™ Cartridge filters out other volatile organic compounds (VOCs)  and gases, eliminating cross-interference, a long-time problem in benzene-specific detection.



The benzene detection capability is one element of a unique, one-to-five-sensor module with interchangeable electrochemical, combustible and PID sensors to protect users from a broad range of toxic and combustible gases and VOCs.



Multi-RAE Benzene provides real-time, wireless access to instrument readings and alarm conditions, including a man-down scenario.



“Benzene snapshot specific measurement combined with a six-gas portable monitor adds a critical component to what already is the industry’s leading portable gas monitor for industrial safety managers,” said Gautier Mallet, product manager for Honeywell Industrial Safety. “Now plant managers can provide a higher degree of protection for their workers while increasing operational efficiency. With snapshot benzene measurement, MultiRAE Benzene allows confined space pre-screening with one instrument rather than two, and can quickly evaluate potential benzene sources.”



Other MultiRAE features of note include: wireless connectivity as a standalone or networkable solution; intelligent, field-replaceable sensors including oxygen, LEL combustibles, hydrogen sulfide, sulfur dioxide and others; up to six months’ datalogging; automatic bump test and calibration (withAutoRAE2) and stainless-steel housing with IP-65 water/dust ingress protection.



The MultiRAE Benzene has been certified for intrinsic safety CSA for Class I, Division 1, Groups A, B, C, and D, T4 hazardous atmospheres.
