GX-2012

The GX-2012 sensor detects the four standard confined space gasses (O, CO, H2S, and LEL) and displays them as a percentage on the visual display. Gasses are continuously monitored with the built-in sample pump. The GX-2012 is the smallest multi-gas sensor with a sample pump.
The GX-2012 has three main operating modes that fit a variety of uses:

  • Confined space safety monitoring
  • Leak investigation
  • Underground leak checking
