The VRae is a hand held 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 gas monitor with built in sampling pump and optional data logging. Sensors include the new Rae dual range 0-100% Volume and 0-100% LEL, oxygen and three, smart interchangeable toxic gas sensors or up to four smart, interchangeable toxic sensors my be added. The dual range combustible sensor can monitor explosive gases in an oxygen free environment at percent by volume levels. The internal pump automatically shuts off plus an alarm is activated, if the remote probe tubing crimps or water is sucked onto the field replaceable filter.
