The GX-3R represents the latest evolution of gas detection technology utilizing a new generation of microsensors. The LEL sensor has a unique design with two active filaments in one sensor to increase it's resistance to silicone poisoning. If one filament gets poisoned the second filament takes over. The new O2 sensor is electrochemical with a 5 year life span. H2S and CO are now available in a combo microsensor. Safety supervisors will appreciate the non-compliance indicator. The instrument flashes its 3 LED lights every 30 seconds if the instrument has been exposed to a gas or has not been bump tested or calibration is due. The 3 LED lights will continue to flash once every 30 seconds until the non-compliance condition has been resolved. OSHA defines the breathing zone as a ten-inch radius around the worker's nose and mouth and requires that worker exposure monitoring air samples be collected in the breathing zone. Air sampling filters may be attached to the collar or lapel. Traditionally this means only a single gas monitor would be small enough for a worker to practically wear a gas monitor in the breathing zone. Now there is a 4 gas monitor smaller than many single gas monitors.
