Description
The RKI HS-04 Hydrogen Sulfide (H₂S) Single Gas Monitor is a compact, rugged personal gas detector designed for continuous hydrogen sulfide monitoring in industrial and hazardous environments. Its small size and simple operation make it ideal for workers who need dependable personal protection from H₂S exposure.
The HS-04 provides continuous monitoring of hydrogen sulfide concentrations from 0–200 ppm H₂S. A clear, easy-to-read display provides real-time gas readings, while audible, visual, and vibration alarms alert the user when hydrogen sulfide concentrations reach configured alarm levels.
Built for demanding work environments, the HS-04 features an IP67 impact-, dust-, and water-resistant enclosure, automatic alarm backlighting, datalogging capability, and a rotating alligator clip for convenient personal wear.
The instrument is powered by two AAA batteries and includes alkaline batteries and an alligator clip.
