Tiger LT
Portable VOC gas detector
The Tiger LT is a portable VOC gas detector that works as an entry-level handheld, portable VOC gas detector. This portable VOC detector that provides you with fast, accurate & reliable results, however challenging your environment.
The Tiger LT portable VOC gas detector is a variant of the hugely popular Tiger, but low on cost and high on performance. The portable VOC gas detector utilises revolutionary, patented photoionisation detection (PID) sensor technology with humidity resistance. The anti-contamination design provides market-leading accuracy and run-time for any gas detection scenario.

Features
The leading technology of our Tiger LT Portable gas detector provides the most accurate, reliable detection of VOCs giving the right results whilst maximising field time.
The Tiger LT portable VOC gas detector offers simple, one-handed operation even when wearing the thickest of gloves. Its rugged yet portable design and protective, removable rubber boot can withstand the harshest environments.
The large, clear backlit display allows for easy viewing in any light condition. An integrated torch is designed for directing the instrument’s probe into dimly lit areas. The illuminated keypad activates when the light is low.
Other instruments in the Tiger portable VOC gas detector range are the Tiger VOC gas detector and the Tiger Select for total aromatic compounds, including benzene.
