The MultiRae is the most advanced wireless portable chemical detector on the market. The MultiRae's cutting edge PID sensor detects volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and supports over 30 electrochemical, NDIR and catalytic sensors to detect up to five additional threats. These include: toxic and combustible gases, oxygen deficiency/enrichment and carbon dioxide. The MultiRae's wireless capability elevates worker protection to the next level by providing safety officers real time access to instrument readings and alarm status from any location for better visibility and faster incident response.

Features

• Wireless access to real time instrument readings and alarm status from any location
• Unmistakable five way local and remote wireless notification of alarm conditions
• Over 30 interchangeable sensor options, including 0.1 to 5,000 ppm PID
• Intelligent sensors store calibration data, so they can be swapped in the field
• Extensive on board gas libraries (190 VOCs and 55 combustible gases)
• Largest display in its class
• Continuous datalogging (6 months form 5 sensors)
• The most advanced wireless portable chemical detector on the market
• Highly visible and customizable for different applications
• Man Down Alarm with real time remote wireless notification
• Easy maintenance with replaceable sensors, pump and plug and play battery
• Fully automated bump testing and calibration with AutoRae 2
