Overview
The RKI AirLink Alert is a battery powered wireless toxic gas detector for non-hazardous areas. It uses one electrochemical, infrared or PID sensor and reports to an RKI AirLink controller by 900 MHz or 2.4 GHz radio.
- Battery powered: up to 2 years with electrochemical sensors, 1 year with low-power infrared, 14+ days with PID
- One sensor for toxic gases, O2, LEL or CO2 (infrared) or VOCs (PID)
- 900 MHz or 2.4 GHz radio, 1 to 1.5 miles range, 255 addresses per network
- Polycarbonate NEMA 4, 4X and 6 enclosure with clear window, IP66
- For non-hazardous (unclassified) areas
- Magnetic switches for non-intrusive calibration, settings and diagnostics
- Optional remote sensor kit: up to 250 ft (electrochemical and PID) or 40 ft (low-power infrared)
- Operates from -40 to +70 °C
Built to order: choose the sensor (gas and range), the 900 MHz or 2.4 GHz radio and the optional remote sensor kit. Request a quote for pricing and availability.
