GEC NEWS WIREMultiRAE Benzene, industry’s first six-gas, benzene-specific monitor promises new level of safety protection for confined space and hazardous site workers
Honeywell has introduced MultiRAE Benzene, the industry’s first wireless portable six-gas monitor with a benzene-specific, snapshot measurement designed to protect worker safety in hazardous environments.
The benzene detection capability is one element of a unique, one-to-five-sensor module with interchangeable electrochemical, combustible and PID sensors to protect users from a broad range of toxic and combustible gases and VOCs.
Multi-RAE Benzene provides real-time, wireless access to instrument readings and alarm conditions, including a man-down scenario.
“Now plant managers can provide a higher degree of protection for their workers while increasing operational efficiency. With snapshot benzene measurement, MultiRAE Benzene allows confined space pre-screening with one instrument rather than two, and can quickly evaluate potential benzene sources.” said Gautier Mallet, product manager for Honeywell Industrial Safety
Other MultiRAE features of note include: wireless connectivity as a standalone or networkable solution; intelligent, field-replaceable sensors including oxygen, LEL combustibles, hydrogen sulfide, sulfur dioxide and others; up to six months’ datalogging; automatic bump test and calibration (with AutoRAE2) and stainless-steel housing with IP-65 water/dust ingress protection.
