Product Information
Detcon Model SG1 is a portable single-gas detector that uses electrochemical sensor
technology to detect and monitor hydrogen sulfide, carbon monoxide, hydrogen, oxygen
and sulfur dioxide. This lightweight, compact gas detector is controlled by an advanced
microprocessor allowing for automatic zero-calibration and easy span calibration set up.
During normal operation the large backlit LCD screen continuously displays battery life
and real-time gas concentration in ppm or concentration of oxygen by percentage.
The SG1 features advanced STEL (Short Term Exposure Limit) and TWA (Time Weighted
Average) functions to prevent dangerous prolonged exposure to a specified gas.
Maximum and minimum gas concentrations can also be programmed and monitored. The
portable gas detector features an easy to use touch-button interface with simple-to-follow
display symbols. Users are alerted to hazardous conditions via three alarm functions:
vibration alert, LED alert lamp and an audible buzzer with low and high settings of up to
90 dB. Weighing just 4.6 ounces, the SG1 is housed in a sturdy rubber enclosure that is
shock resistant. It includes a heavy-duty stainless steel alligator belt clip and has a
minimum battery run time of 4,500 hours.
