Overview

Rental only. ERE rents calibrated GX-6000 monitors by the day, week or month from Montreal and ships them with a calibration certificate. RKI has discontinued the GX-6000 for sale and lists the GX-6100 as the alternative; ERE keeps the GX-6000 in its rental fleet and still supplies parts, filters, sensors and calibration. Calibration gas and the SDM-6000 station below are for renters and existing owners.

The GX-6000 simultaneously monitors up to 6-gases. In addition to the standard 4 confined space gases which include LEL, O2, CO, & H2S, the GX-6000 has 2 additional smart channels that accept PID, IR or super toxic sensors. It can operate as a single gas PID unit or a multifunctional tool utilizing all 6 channels. A benzene-specific version is also available using a pre-filter tube for detecting low levels of benzene.

Features
• Monitors up to 6 gases
• Two smart sensor slots auto recognize PID, IR and super toxic sensors
• Six operating modes: normal, leak check, benzene select mode, inert, snap log and bar hole
• Four PID options: 10.6 (2 ranges) eV, 10.0 eV, and 11.7 eV lamps
• PID library of over 600 VOCs
• Benzene specific version
• PPM leak check mode
• LEL sensor protection mode
• Man-down alarm
• Panic alarm, auto display rotation
• Peak-bar display
• LED Light source
• Internal sample pump
• Light weight, small, rugged IP-67 design
• Li-Ion or alkaline battery packs (interchangeable)
• Field replaceable sensors, batteries, filters and pump

Applications
