When designing our compliance four gas detector at WatchGas, we spoke to customers across various markets and applications and found five key things they look for in a gas detector:
1: A clear display for rapid reading and understanding potential risks quickly. The SST4 Micro screen makes up 25% of the front face of the device, allowing for no compromise on a transparent display. Other products in the market have an average coverage of 17%, and some are even as low as 7%.
2: All our multigas detectors have been designed for easy charging. We offer wireless charging as a standard. This prevents damage to pins and opens a wide range of charging options, reducing the challenge of finding a free power source.
3: With its loud 95dB auditable alarm at 30 cm, the SST4 Micro is hard to challenge. Many other suppliers only test to 90dB or only at 10 cm. 95dB is critical as the distance from chest to ear is 30 cm, and gas alarms should be heard.
4: Many multigas devices in the market are limited in runtime to a 12-16-hour work shift. This causes challenges and costs as many customers must purchase further devices while others are charged. The SST4 Micro will give you up to 48 hours of run time and will not compromise on seeing H2 as it uses a catalytic sensor.
5: Sensor technology that reduces OPEX. The device has been designed with solid polymer sensors that offer long life spans and aren’t impacted by the drying out or lead consumption that other devices face. Also, the extended range allows for better exposure understanding and enables safety managers to have more data at their fingertips.
When coupled with our RTR Software, the SST4 Micro offers a well-designed and cost-effective solution. It’s a product you can trust to meet your needs, no matter the region, market, or application requiring a four-gas compliance device.
