Four-Gas Protection from One-Touch Monitor



(MILFORD, OH) - A new four-channel personal gas monitor combines sophisticated data management features with the simplicity of operation normally found in basic one-gas instruments. Although controlled by only one button, Cardinal from Crowcon features datalogging, data transfer to a PC and automatic calibration reminders.

Cardinal can be specified with sensors for flammable gas, oxygen and one or two toxic gases. Flammable gas sensors can be calibrated for methane, propane, butane or pentane, while users wishing to minimize maintenance can opt for a long-life oxygen sensor lasting two years. Sensors for all common toxic gases are available, including carbon monoxide, hydrogen sulfide, sulfur dioxide, ammonia and chlorine.

A high-contrast, back-lit display automatically scrolls between readings for each gas channel. Peak levels are displayed on request, and time-weighted averages for toxic gases can be recalled. If a hazard is detected, a wailing siren (92 dBA at 1 foot) is triggered, along with ultra-bright flashing LEDs visible over a 270° angle.

Alarms are reset by pressing and holding the button control, which is oversized to allow easy use with thick gloves.

To ensure the monitor is regularly calibrated, it displays the number of days remaining before calibration is due each time it is switched on. Automatic zeroing on start-up is also available as an option.

Cardinal is fully water resistant and can withstand total immersion for up to half an hour. It has a shatterproof Triax(TM) casing and is supplied with an impact-resistant rubber boot. Despite its ruggedness it weighs just over one pound, making it easy to carry or wear for a complete shift.

The monitor is powered by a removable battery pack, which is secured by a steel "click-lock". Unlike nickel cadmium batteries, the nickel metal hydride pack can be trickle-charged and recharged at any point without damage. A full charge provides power for at least 12 hours.
