MULTI-SENSOR GAS DETECTOR
Electrochemical, LEL, PID, IR*— The Biosystems PHD6 has it all!
The Biosystems PHD6 is a state-of-the-art multi-gas detector from Sperian. It’s the most configurable gas detector we’ve ever made with 5 sensor ports, up to 6 channels of detection, and over 19 sensor options including electrochemical, LEL, PID and Infrared.*
Sperian built the Biosystems PHD6 to be reliable and sophisticated while maintaining the ease of use that you’ve come to expect from us. Day-to-day detector operations are controlled entirely through the mode button. A status bar on the display, with easy-to-recognize icons, gives the user immediate access to everything from time to calibration status. Built-in and easy-to-navigate menus give advanced users the ability to configure the detector in the field.
The Biosystems PHD6 is constructed of an impact engineered polycarbonate frame with rubber overmold, making it both
tough and easy to handle. Power comes from inter changeable alkaline or Li-Ion rechargeable battery packs with run times as long as 24 hours. A manual sample draw kit is included and an optional motorized sample draw pump is available.
To save on calibration costs and to automate record keeping, Sperian is releasing the Biosystems IQ6 Express Dock alongside the PHD6. The IQ6 Dock can calibrate common PHD6 configurations in under a minute while reducing labor time and calibration gas costs. Concerned about record ­keeping? With the IQ6 Dock, recordkeeping is automatic.

5 Sensor Ports and 19 Sensor Options
With 19 sensor choices, including PID, IR-CO2,* IR-CH4,* conventional LEL, oxygen and 15 different toxic gas sensors including Duo-Tox, the Biosystems PHD6 can be configured for just about any use.
PID Sensor Option
PID sensor monitors for hundreds of known VOCs.
IR CO2Sensor Option*
For breweries, wineries and anywhere accumulations of CO2can be an issue.
Electrochemical Sensor Options
Choose from 14 different electrochemical toxic gas sensors.
LEL Sensor Option

IR CH4Sensor Option*
Poison-proof technology for use in situations where a conventional LEL sensor can fail.
Durable
The Biosystems PHD6 is enclosed in a solid polycarbonate case with a TPE (rubber) overmold, so it’s both tough and easy to handle.
Interchangeable Battery Packs
Both Li-Ion and Alkaline battery packs offer up to 24 hour run times.
Dual Audible Alarms that Stand Out!
The new dual audible alarms in the Biosystems PHD6 are unlike anything you’ve ever heard from a gas detector — and rated at 92 dB.
Visible Alarms
Front and side mounted LED alarms are highly visible.
KEY FEATURES
Biosystems IQ6 Express Dock
Introducing…
The Biosystems IQ6 Express Dock is designed from the ground up to be the easiest dock to use on the market. The dock is configured at the factory with default settings and can be used right out of the box for basic instrument processing. More advanced users will appreciate the standard USB or optional Ethernet connections that allowthedock’s settings to be tailored to meet the specific needs of any gas detection program. The automatic instrument download feature allows the user to streamline recordkeeping andmakesitvirtually hands-free. Common Biosystems PHD6 configurations can be processed by the dock in under a minute, reducing labor and calibration gas expenses.
At Sperian, we’re convinced that we make the best docks on the market. Our Biosystems IQ Express docks offer incredible processing power and flexibility while being extremely easy to use. The worker just drops the detector in the dock at the beginning of his or her shift and the dock processes the instrument according to your recordkeeping protocols. It’s that easy.
It’s pretty clear that docks can really make your life easier and can streamline your gas detection program, but the question remains: Why spend $495 to $895 on a dock when you can continue to perform manual calibrations and recordkeeping?
Status Bar with Easily Recognized Symbols
Icons let the user know the status of the instrument. A heartbeat symbol beats every few seconds to let you know that the instrument is functioning normally. Calibration due is shown with a gas cylinder icon coupled with a triangular warning symbol.
IQ Dock Compatibility
Reduce labor costs, automate recordkeeping and save calibration gas all at the same time with the IQ6 Dock.
Intuitive Menu-Driven Instrument Configuration
Select from the Main Menu or the Basic Menu. Access all instrument configuration options from alarm settings to passcode access option to menus.
Built-In IrDA Port for Easy Downloads
Every Biosystems PHD6 includes a built-in IrDA port that allows the instrument to be configured with a PC. The IrDA port also allows instruments with the Datalogger upgrade to be downloaded in the field to retrieve data on calibrations and exposure levels.

Docks reduce calibration gas expenses
Sperian docks use a lot less gas than is used during manual calibrations. Here’s an example: If you have 10 Sperian gas detectors and follow the ISEA guideline that recommends daily sensor verification, you could spend over $10,000 per year in gas costs. If you purchase a dock, you can reduce your gas costs by over 60%. So the Biosystems IQ Express Dock could save you well over $6000 per year in gas costs alone.
Docks reduce labor expenses by cutting down on the time needed to perform a calibration
To set up and perform a manual bump test of a single instrument takes the average user about 2 minutes. A Biosystems IQ Express Dock can perform a bump test in about 22 seconds. If you’ve got ten instruments to bump every morning, you could save over 60 hours of labor by the end of the first year.
Docks reduce labor expenses associated with recordkeeping Let’s face it: Recordkeeping is a lot of work. Downloading individual instrument records one at a time into a PC can take hours. Tracking calibration and exposure records by hand is even worse. In an IQ Express Dock, both of these procedures occur automatically during instrument processing.
Docks can reduce your legal liability
No matter how good yourrecordkeeping is, manual systems are prone to error. And in case of an accident, errors mean liability. Our docks accurately record every test.
Biosystems IQ Express Docks pay for themselves in no time!
