Why Choose The GT Series Portable Gas Detection
Why Choose The GT Series Portable Gas Detection
Value Elements
Seven Applications in One Instrument: Combines leak testing, confined space entry, barhole testing, carbon monoxide detection, purging, sniffer detection and pressure leak tightness testing into a single portable gas detector.
Wide-Range Methane Detection: Measures methane concentrations from parts per million (PPM) to %LEL and % volume, supporting both low-level natural gas leak detection and higher-concentration gas monitoring.
Fast and Accurate Leak Detection: Rapid PPM response and audible and visual ticker indicators help natural gas utility technicians quickly locate and assess potential methane leaks.
Versatile Gas Monitoring: Optional oxygen (O₂), carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen sulphide (H₂S) sensors provide additional gas detection capabilities for utility safety applications.
Built for Field Conditions: Rugged, impact-resistant construction with an IP54 rating supports reliable performance during routine natural gas distribution inspections and maintenance.
Simplified Data Recording: Manual and automatic data logging capabilities help utilities document gas readings, supporting inspection records and ongoing safety programs.
Efficient Field Operation: An integrated flashlight, pressure measurement capability and portable handheld design reduce the need for additional equipment during gas utility fieldwork.
Comparison vs. Next Best Alternative
Compared to Single-Purpose Gas Detectors: Seven operating modes allow utility technicians to perform multiple gas detection tasks using one instrument, reducing the need to carry separate devices.
Greater Detection Flexibility: PPM, %LEL and % volume methane measurement ranges provide broader detection capabilities than instruments limited to a single gas concentration range.
Improved Leak Identification: Fast PPM response and audible and visual ticker indicators help technicians locate small natural gas leaks more efficiently.
Streamlined Field Testing: Integrated pressure measurement and gas detection capabilities simplify fieldwork compared to using separate instruments for each task.
Simplified Recordkeeping: Built-in data logging and compatible calibration stations help utilities manage gas detection records and routine instrument testing.
Where Do I Use This Product and Why?
Natural Gas Distribution Leak Surveys: Detects methane leaks around underground gas mains, service lines and distribution infrastructure, helping utilities identify potential gas escape points.
Barhole Testing: Measures methane concentrations in ground sampling holes to help technicians investigate and pinpoint underground natural gas leaks.
Gas Pipeline Maintenance and Repairs: Supports leak testing, purging and pressure tightness checks during natural gas pipeline servicing and maintenance.
Metering and Regulator Stations: Provides portable gas leak detection around meters, regulators, valves and associated natural gas equipment.
Confined Space Entry: Configurations with the required sensors support atmospheric testing for combustible gases, oxygen levels and toxic gas hazards before and during confined space work.
Natural Gas Emergency Response: Helps trained utility personnel assess methane concentrations and investigate suspected gas leaks during emergency response situations.
Gas Utility Construction and Commissioning: Supports leak detection and pressure verification during new natural gas service installations, pipeline connections and commissioning activities.
