#1 – BW GasAlert Quattro is Light Weight and Rugged
Although this multi-gas detector has a tough, rugged looking exterior, it’s actually lightweight, tipping the scales at a mere 338 grams. This means it not only feels good in the hand, but isn't cumbersome when attached to your clothing.
The housing is robust and is IP 66/67 rated which means it is protected against certain levels of particle and water ingress.
#2 – BW GasAlert Quattro Features High-Performance Sensors
It features four, powerful SureCell sensors. These high performing sensors mean you can simultaneously measure LEL, H2S, CO and oxygen deficiency levels, per the following parameters:
- LEL – 0-100%
- O2 – 0-30%
- CO – 0-1000 ppm
- H2S – 0-200 ppm
#3 – BW GasAlert Quattro Has a Long-Lasting Battery
The rechargeable version - click here to see it on our site - has a battery that will last around 20 hours between charges. The version supplied with an alkaline battery - click here to see it on our site - has a run time of around 14 hours. Both of which are long enough to see you through a typical working day.
#4 – BW GasAlert Quattro - Ease of Use
With its bright, rugged housing the BW GasAlert Quattro certainly looks the part. However, it's also easy to use, thanks to the simple, one-button operation. As a result, very little training on using the unit is required before you're ready to clip it on and be kept safe by it.
The large, backlit, graphical screen shows real-time readings and when you've turned it on it will run through a full function test on all four sensors, plus the battery and alarms.
