Portable gas monitor is compact, light and rugged
Extending the family of Tetra portable gas monitors, the lightweight Tetra:3 from Crowcon Detection Instruments combines extremely rugged design with small size and simple operation.
Monitoring oxygen, toxic and flammable gases, the unit has a top mounted, backlit display showing all gas readings, diagnostics and battery life.
Despite its compact size and low weight (less than 300g), the Tetra:3 is very rugged.
Its shatterproof housing with rubber over-moulding, provides extra shock and vibration protection, and giving it water and dust resistance to IP67.
If a hazard is detected, Tetra:3 gives rapid and effective warning with a powerful 95 dBA audible alarm, an extremely bright red/blue LED visual warning, and by vibrating.
There are two levels of alarm, which can be set to have distinctive tones.
A lithium-ion battery provides over 18 hours continuous operation from a single charge, and there is a 30 day countdown warning of the calibration due date. Request a free brochure from Crowcon Detection Instruments ...
The Tetra:3 comes standard with a stainless steel alligator pocket clip and an optional harness for chest mounting.
