The RKI AirLink 6940 is a wireless ambient air multi-gas detector that runs up to four electrochemical, PID or low-power infrared sensors at once. The 6940XP is battery powered in an explosion proof housing; the 6940NXP is AC powered with a backup battery in a NEMA 4X fiberglass enclosure.
- Up to 4 sensors in one wireless head: electrochemical toxics and O2, low-power infrared LEL or CO2, PID for VOCs
- 6940XP: 3.6 V / 76 Ah battery pack, up to 6 months (2 weeks with a PID sensor), explosion proof, optional 2-wheeled cart
- 6940NXP: AC powered with an integrated 3.6 V / 76 Ah backup battery pack, IP66 fiberglass enclosure with clear lid
- 900 MHz or 2.4 GHz radio, 255 addresses per network
- 160 x 104 graphic LCD, sunlight readable, with LED backlight
- 4 push-buttons with 4 matching magnetic switches for non-intrusive calibration and diagnostics
- Background gas setting adjustable for each sensor
- Reports to the AirLink 7010 and AirLink 7032 controllers
Built to order: choose up to 4 sensors (gas and range), the 900 MHz or 2.4 GHz radio and options such as the 2-wheeled cart (XP). Request a quote for pricing and availability.
