INTRODUCTION
IX176 portable single gas detector (intrinsically safe) can make continuous detection to combustible
and toxic gases. It is suitable for combustible and toxic gas leakage detection in underground pipe or
mines, and keeps the workers safe, prevents the facilities from being destroyed. The detector,
adopting excellent-quality sensor, makes detection in the way of natural diffusion. It has good
sensitivity and reproducibility. The detector adopts embedded MCU controller, easy to operate.
The shell adopts special high strength material and anti-smooth rubber, with the characters of waterproof and dust-proof.
