Product Description
Tiger Select Handheld Benzene Detector
*PPM Sensitivity
The Tiger Select is a revolutionary handheld VOC detector with two-mode operation for rapid detection of benzene and Total Aromatic Compounds (TACs)-providing accurate, reliable data. The Tiger Select is a revolutionary hand-held gas detector for the rapid and accurate detection of benzene and Total Aromatic Compounds (TACs). Utilizing the high output ION Science 10.0 eV detection system, a reading for TACs is seen immediately on start-up. Should aromatics be detected, an ION Science benzene pre-filter tube can be easily attached to ensure fast detection and selective measurement of benzene. Throughout the measurement process, Tiger Select continues to display real-time data, ensuring the final reading represents the full value of actual benzene present. Benzene concentrations are displayed down to parts-per-billion (ppb) levels, giving you accurate, reliable data you can count on.
Tiger Select is capable of providing 15-minute short-term exposure limits (STELs) and 8-hour time-weighted averages (TWAs) for total aromatic compounds (TACs). In addition, the unique ION Science PID sensor incorporates both humidity resistant technology and anti-contamination design for extended operation in difficult working environments.
