UltraRae Specific Compound
Monitor from Rae Systems
UltraRae is a quick, spot-check monitor typically used by occupational health, safety and environmental personnel. The combination filter tube and PID removes the disadvantages associated with colorimetric tubes and gas chromatographs. Applications include tank entry pre screening during refinery and plant maintenance, hazardous material response, marine spill response and refinery down stream monitoring.
Benzene
Methylene Chloride (halocarbon)
Butadiene (polymer manufacture)
Features
The only compound specific monitor with combination of interchangeable separation tubes and PID
3-10 times faster analysis verses conventional tube or portable gas chromatograph methods
Results obtained in seconds (<75 seconds) rather than minutes
Detects benzene down to 0.1 ppm in 60 seconds
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 30 feet) into a confined space
Prevents liquid flow into the monitor
Warns if sample tubing is blocked or crimped
Low cost of ownership
Inexpensive analysis due to low cost RAE-Sep tubes vs gas detection tubes
Cheaper than portable GC and no annual factory calibration
Large keys operable with 3 layers of gloves
Large easy to read back light display
Alarm activated
Darkness or manually activated
Optional vibration alarm
Snap in rechargeable or alkaline battery pack, 10 hours of operation with smart battery charging
