RKI GX-6000 Benzene Gas Detector
002738-HW-RKI-038
Overview
The GX-6000 Benzene Detector is a game changer and it just changed the game again with the Benzene Specific measuring mode. With the addition of the highly selective 10.0 eV PID sensor, the GX-6000 can now detect the BTEX family of VOC’s including benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene with a range of 0 – 100 ppm and a library of over 300 VOC’s. By using the PID pre-filter tubes and the filter tube holder, the GX-6000 can specifically monitor for benzene at a range of 0.01 – 50 ppm by filtering out all other VOC’s. The filter tube holder has a unique break away design to avoid accidental damage if impacted or dropped. The filter tube holder also includes a safe and convenient glass breaker for the filter tube tips.

Uniquely, it supports dual PID sensors, allowing the installation of two photoionization detectors within a single unit—an industry first. Users can combine a broad-range 10.6 eV PID sensor with a benzene-specific 10.0 eV sensor, facilitating both general VOC detection and targeted benzene analysis without equipment changes. The GX-6000 features a library of over 600 VOCs, customizable favorites, and recent gas lists for quick access. Additional features include a strong internal pump, man-down and panic alarms, LED flashlight, and a rugged IP-67 rated design, ensuring reliability in demanding environments.
The GX-6000 has a rugged design built for the nastiest environments. It is equipped with a removable impact-resistant rubber boot and a dust and water resistant enclosure with an IP-67 rating. With 5 bright LED lights on 3 sides of the instrument, alarms are easily seen from a variety of perspectives. With vibration and loud audible alarm, GX-6000 will easily alert users when needed.
