GMI Oxygas 500

The Oxygas 500 is a two button instrument designed to measure Lower Explosive Level, Volume flammable gas and Oxygen for (CGI) leak detection and purge operations.The instrument is designed to the latest standards and is certified for use in Hazardous Areas. The Oxygas 500 contains the following ranges: LEL, 0 to 100% Volume gas, 0 to 100% Oxygen, 0 to 25%. The Oxygas 500 compliments the Gascoseeker 500 with a similar performance, measuring % LEL and % volume flammable hydrocarbons, but with the addition of oxygen for either gas/air or gas/nitrogen/air purging. The Oxygas 500 has the following additional features; automated zero during start-up, manually selectable purge mode. The Oxygas P-500 variant has an additional part per million (ppm) range of methane. The Oxygas 500 is easy to use with very simple training, as the operation of the instrument follows the operation of the purge cycle. The rugged design allows the Oxygas 500 to be used in harsh environments. The instrument is also fully compatible with our range of calibration software and equipment. It uses a catalytic sensor to measure LEL, which requires air to be present, and a thermal conductivity sensor to measure the % Volume range. PURGING The opening of a pipeline or vessel causes a mixing of flammable products, such as gas with air, creatingpotentially flammable mixtures. It may not be possible to ensure that all sources of ignition are removed, hence there is a need to avoid the formation of flammable mixtures. FEATURES Combustible Gas Indicator (CGI) and Purge modes. Simple 2-button operation, allowing user access to all features. Audible and Visual Geiger (Ticker) in PPM range (Oxygas P-500 only). Integral pump. Optional Alkaline Cells or Rechargeable Battery Pack. Proven track record for reliability. Rugged carbon loaded polypropylene case, sealed to IP54 rating and suitable for outdoor use. LCD with backlighting which displays the current gas readings (in both digital and analogue format). Comprehensive range of accessories. ATEX approved. Directly interfaces with the GMI Auto Test Calibration Units.
