RAE Systems- UltraRAE Compound-Specific Monitor
Benzene, Butadiene, Halocarbons and VOC Detection.
The UltraRAE is a quick, spot-check monitor typically used by occupational health, safety, and environmental personnel. The combination filter tube and Photoionization Detector (PID) removes the disadvantages associated with colorimetric tubes and gas chromatographs. The UltraRAE has the advantage of providing a fast, continuous reading and datalogging of concentrations of Benzene, Methylene Chloride, or Butadiene. Applications include tank entry pre-screening during refinery and plant maintenance, hazardous material response, marine spill response, and refinery down-stream monitoring.
*Note -
-9.8ev Lamp is required for Benzene and Butadiene.
-11.7eV Lamp is required for Halocarbons
*Note -
-RAE SEP Tubes for Bezene and Butadiene require a 9.8eV Lamp
-RAE SEP Tubes for Halocarbons require an 11.7eV Lamp
Applications:
Benzene
- Petrochemical
- Transportation industry - tankers, railways, aircraft, and barges
- Pipelines
- Military
- Rubber manufacturers
Methylene Chloride
- Paint strippers in industries from airlines to furniture refinishers to ship building
- Solvents for cleaning chemical tanks
- Solvents in the manufacture of plastics, flexible foams, sealants and photographic film stock
- Adhesives in the assembly of plastic parts
Butadiene
- Polymers industries
- Manufacturers of plastics, resin, and rubber
Key Features:
- The only compound specific monitor with combination of interchangeable separation tubes and PID
- 3-10 times faster analysis compared to conventional tube or portable gas chromatograph methods: Results obtained in seconds (less than 75 seconds) rather than minutes; detects benzene down to 0.1 ppm in 60 seconds
- Built-in Bar Code Reader allows easy switching between total VOCs and benzene-specific measurements
- 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 30ft or 10m) into a confined space; prevents liquid flow into the monitor and warns if sample tubing is blocked or crimped
- Inexpensive analysis using low cost RAE-SepTM tubes in place of gas detection tubes
- Cheaper than portable GC and no annual factory calibration
- Large keys are operable even with 3 layers of gloves
- Large easy-to-read back light display that is alarm-, darkness-, or manually-activated
- Optional vibration alarm
- Snap-in rechargeable or alkaline battery pack provides 10 hours of operation with smart battery charging
