Description

The smallest and lightest 4-gas portable multi gas detector in the world. Weighing only 4.6 ounces, it fits in the palm of your hand (2.75” H x 2.95” L x .98” D). The GX-2009 simultaneously monitors and displays combustibles, oxygen, carbon monoxide, and hydrogen sulfide. The GX-2009 represents the latest evolution of gas detection technology. Advancements include dual audible alarm ports and alarm LED’s on 3 sides of the instrument, so that alarm conditions are obvious from multiple perspectives especially in high noise environments. Other features include a water resistant and dust-proof design with IP 67 rating, an impact resistant rubber over-mold body that is RFI resistant, and a large capacity data logging system included as standard. Other standard features are vibration alarm, auto-calibration, calibration and bump test lock out or reminder control, STEL / TWA readings, peak hold, auto backlighting at alarm on a large LCD display, and it even tells the time! All of these controls and features are operated through 2 simple glove friendly buttons.

The NiMH battery set will operate for 20 hours and will fully charge in 3 hours. A huge capacity data logging function is a standard feature on all GX-2009 instruments. The data logging software will store up to 100 calibration records and is Windows XP, 7, 8, and 10. The GX-2009 is also functional with the SDM-2009 single calibration station and the Data Cal 2000 instrument maintenance system. The GX-2009 is designed around RKI’s compact and proven sensors, utilizing catalytic combustion, electrochemical and galvanic sensor technologies. Each miniaturized sensor is manufactured with the same high quality control that has made RKI sensors and instruments the most reliable and long lasting monitoring devices in the industry

GX-2009 Mining Version

RKI is proud to offer the smallest and lightest 4-gas monitor with an MSHA approval. MSHA (Mine Safety and Health Administration) approval allows this version of the GX-2009 to be used in underground mines, tunnels and excavations under MSHA jurisdiction. The GX-2009 Mining Version simultaneously monitors and displays % volume combustibles, oxygen, carbon monoxide, and hydrogen sulfide.

WSH, 27 November 2020: 

Employers, principals and contractors performing similar work are advised to put in place the necessary controls to protect workers when working with inert gases (e.g. argon). The use of inert gases in a confined space (the adjoining pipe in this case) may inadvertently create an asphyxiation hazard. Communicate to workers the dangers of working with inert gases. Establish and implement a work procedure for the safe application of inert gas in preparation for welding works. Avoid the use of inert gas wherever possible. If inert gas must be used, equip workers with a portable gas detector to detect the lack of oxygen and/or presence of toxics/flammables depending on the work environment. Advise workers never to insert their head into a confined space so long as the atmosphere within is not certain.

*Compliance To IMO & MPA Circular MSC1./Circ. 1477 dtd 9 Jun 2014

1. The Maritime Safety Committee (MSC) of the International Maritime

Organisation (IMO) adopted SOLAS regulation III/19.3.6.2.3 relating to enclosed

space entry and rescue drills, by Resolution MSC.350(92). The Merchant Shipping

(Safety Convention) (Amendment No. 2) Regulations 2014 which gives effect to the

Resolution entered into force on 1 January 2015.

2. The MSC at its ninety-third session confirmed that regulation III/19.3.6.2.3

does not introduce carriage requirements for atmosphere testing instruments for

enclosed spaces.

3. The MSC at its ninety-fourth session, in adopting Resolution MSC.380(94)

recognised the need to implement the new SOLAS regulation XI-1/7 early in order to

expedite the carriage of portable atmosphere testing instruments. MSC/Circ.1485

invited SOLAS Contracting Governments to voluntarily implement SOLAS regulation

XI-1/7 to ships under their flags, as soon as practicable, taking into account that the

entry-into-force date of the corresponding amendment to SOLAS is 1 July 2016.

4. In view of the testing of atmosphere of enclosed spaces is critical for the safe

entry by ship crew and the carriage of portable atmosphere testing instrument

introduced by regulation XI-1/7 is essential to satisfying the requirement of regulation

III/19.3.6.2.3, the Director of Marine has decided to implement regulation XI-1/7

early. Singapore registered ships to which chapter I of the Merchant Shipping (Safety

Convention) Regulations apply, shall implement regulation XI-1/7 as soon as

possible but not later than 1 July 2015.

5. Shipowners should take into consideration MSC.1/Circ.1477 “Guidelines to

facilitate the selection of portable atmosphere testing instruments for enclosed

spaces as required by SOLAS regulation XI-1/7”, when selecting portable

atmosphere testing instrument for enclosed spaces as required by regulation XI-1/7.
