BW Technologies is one of the world's largest makers of gas-detection equipment. Headquartered in Calgary, Canada, the Company's products range from disposable, zero-maintenance personal H2S detectors, to fixed gas detection systems, to the GasAlertMicroClip, the Company's latest multi-sensor confined space gas detector.
Confined space gas detector users have not been shy when it comes to expressing their wishes. The state-of-the-art GasAlertMicroClip is a direct reflection of these customer requirements. The GasAlertMicroClip offers cutting-edge features and capabilities at a fraction of the cost of previous generations of instruments. In many cases, the $545.00 USD cost of a brand new four-sensor GasAlertMicroClip is less than the cost of replacing the sensors and battery pack in an existing instrument bought only two or three years previously.
The revolutionary GasAlertMicroClip is the world's most compact multi-sensor confined space gas detector. The GasAlertMicroClip offers full-function multi-gas instrument performance, with the simplicity, compact size and ease-of-use of a disposable gas detector. The GasAlertMicroClip is based on the revolutionary new MicroCel® family of miniaturized gas sensors from City Technology Ltd. The small size, long life and high specificity of the sensors are central to the sleek, compact and functional design.
Simultaneously displaying oxygen, hydrogen sulfide, carbon monoxide and percent LEL combustibles present, the GasAlertMicroClip is ideally suited to a wide range of applications and customers including confined space entry, telecommunication vaults and manholes, refinery and petrochemical plants, construction contractors, and fire service and fire-ground overhaul monitoring applications.
The GasAlertMicroClip is housed in a rugged, fully immersible, water resistant housing with built-in concussion-proof boot. Other features include an extra-loud audible alarm, flashing LED light bars and built-in vibrating alarm. Field-selectable user options allow the GasAlertMicroClip to be customized for virtually any monitoring application. Calibration due-dates, language, alarm settings and many other optional setup choices allow the instrument to be configured exactly as necessary to meet specific industry requirements. Datalogging and event logging come standard with every GasAlertMicroClip detector.
The instrument is powered by means of an internally housed lithium polymer battery that provides up to 14-hours on continuous operation on a single charge. Every GasAlertMicroClip is shipped complete with a charging adapter and charger capable of completely recharging the instrument within three hours. At just 160 grams (5.6 oz.), GasAlertMicroClip is truly more for less.
The GasAlertMicroClip is only one part of the BW approach to simplifying and reducing the costs of gas detection instrument ownership. Regulatory agencies and national performance standards are putting increasing emphasis on periodic testing, calibration, and documentation to ensure gas detection instruments are properly maintained. The BW MicroDock II Test and Calibration System automatically tests and documents proper performance. Simply slip the GasAlertMicroClip into the MicroDock, and push the "Test" button. The MicroDock automatically administers test gas to the instrument, verifies proper performance, and stores the results.
The GasAlertMicroClip can be purchased by itself, or as part of a complete confined space kit that includes calibration gas, regulator, IR connectivity kit, remote sampling kit and other accessories; all in a foam lined carrying case. The instrument is also available in the special Stealth configuration for Homeland Security, police and anti-terrorist applications. Stealth version detectors are equipped with special silent alarms and infrared LEDs visible only with special night vision goggles (NVGs).
Simply put, the GasAlertMicroClip is the world's best value in confined space gas detectors.
