The ToxiRae Plus PID is no longer available. Please contact AFC International for other options.
The ToxiRae Plus PID is the world's first and only pocket sized photo ionization detector (PID). Its small size brings the "broad band" capabilities of the PID/VOC detector to a personal level for 10 hours of continuous and instantaneous monitoring of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The ToxiRae Plus PID is a very convenient tool that can alarm when it is necessary for an individual to take action when VOC thresholds have been passed in HazMat, environmental clean up or industrial applications.
Features
- Small and light enough to wear in a pocket for a full working shift or protection
- The ToxiRae Plus PID lamp and sensor comes apart in seconds for easy maintenance without any tools.
- User friendly screens make it easy to use for simple applications and flexible enough for sophisticated options.
- Measure more chemicals than with any other PID. With over 38 standard correction factors available and the largest printed list of correction factors (300+), Rae Systems offers the ability to accurately measure more ionizable chemicals than any other PID.
- The standard rugged rubber boot helps assure that the ToxiRae Plus survivies the bumps and knocks of tough field use.
- Large keys operable with 3 layers of gloves
- Easy to read display with backlight
- Store up to 67 hours of data at one minute intervals for download to PC with the optional datalogger.
- Varying audio alarm signals for different alarm conditions including STEL, TWA and Peak.
