Details: This is the Forensics Detectors heavy-duty, wall-mounted Volatile Organic Vapors (VOC) gas detector for continuous indoor monitoring. The fixed detector can switch on/off electrical equipment up to 50W each relay power by setting low and high alarms to trigger relays, perfect for fan control, ventilation control, and other devices. High precision for accurate monitoring within an indoor space, industrial, small business, manufacturing, cleanrooms, research and development, VOC exposure control, and occupational safety applications. Equipped with a VOC electrochemical sensor and comes factory-calibrated.
Volatile organic compounds are released from a number of common household products such as paints and refrigerants. They can cause many negative health effects in humans and are known air pollutants-- particularly for indoor air, but they do have a known effect on outdoor air as well. Volatile organic compounds, VOCs, are chemical compounds that are known to possess certain properties, including high vapor pressure and low water solubility. Most VOCs are produced by humans as gases and are used as industrial solvents. Specific ways they are produced include the manufacturing of paints, pharmaceuticals, and refrigerants.
For those that just require a more basic VOC meter without the advanced multigas detector function, we recommend our FD-90A-VOC. For those requiring a handheld VOC meter with a built-in pump, we recommend our FD-600-VOC.
An example list of VOCs the analyzer detects is here.
Included: Comes with the fixed gas detector, user manual, remote control with battery, hex key to remove the cover, 24V power adapter to plug into a 110V outlet, and wiring. Arrives with a certified calibration certificate.
