Tiger XT Select

Benzene PID gas detector with two operation modes!

The Tiger XT Select is a portable benzene PID gas detector with two operation modes for rapid detection of benzene gas and Total Aromatic Compounds (TACs) providing accurate, reliable data.

The Tiger XT Select portable benzene PID gas detector is capable of providing 15-minute short-term exposure limits (STELs) and 8-hour time-weighted averages (TWAs) for total aromatic compounds (TACs).

Features

The Tiger XT Select portable benzene PID gas detector, displays real-time data, ensuring the final reading represents the full value of actual benzene gas present. Benzene gas concentrations are displayed down to parts-per-billion (ppb) levels, giving you accurate, reliable data you can count on.

The Tiger XT Select can also be used in ‘standard Tiger operational mode‘ without the use of a benzene pre-filter tube to deliver active indications of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), including benzene, at concentrations as low as 1 ppb benzene equivalent.

This gas detector has a thermo plastic elastomer outer moulding, this rubber material is semi-conductive making the Tiger XT Select intrinsically safe.

Key Features

Improved robust design can withstand harsh environments
Large internal gas table with over 750 VOCs & toxic compounds
IP65 ingress protection against a range of weather conditions
<2 second response time, one of the fastest and most accurate on the market
Instantaneous alarms, RED & AMBER with loud 95 dBA sounder
Humidity resistant and
anti-contamination design ensures optimal performance

What our customers say

”“We needed a cost effective VOC instrument that was accurate, repeatable and user-friendly as our older one was cumbersome and difficult to use. The ION Science Tiger, purchased from Shawcity, fitted our ergonomic requirement whilst providing an affordable and reliable replacement.”

What our customers say

”“We conduct subsoil investigation so it is very important to have in situ information of polluted soils to help us decide the best place to take a sample. Our technical teams work on outdoor sites during all weather conditions so the Tiger’s humidity resistant sensor was the most important feature for our business. Of course, the anti-contamination design was also vital to avoid cross pollution and ensure data integrity.”
Albert Sabanes i Fiter, Director de projectes at GeoambientGeoambient chooses Tiger for humidity resistant sensor
