Product information "FireCraft - SENSIT® HXG-2d Combustible Gas Leak Detector"
The SENSIT® HXG-2d is a rugged, intrinsically safe, handheld gas detector ideal for pinpointing small leaks of natural gas, methane, propane, and other combustible gases. It combines precision sensing with practical field features for fast, dependable leak diagnosis.
Key Features & Benefits
Dual-Mode Detection — Measures combustible gas in ppm (parts per million) and automatically transitions to % LEL (Lower Explosive Limit) mode when levels exceed ~990 ppm.
Audible “Tick” Feedback — Built-in audible tick control helps guide users toward the leak source. The faster the tick, the stronger the leak.
Lightweight & Portable — Compact form (3.5″ × 10″ × 1.6″) and weighing ~1.2 lb (0.54 kg) makes it easy to carry and maneuver in tight spaces.
Durable & Safe — Intrinsically safe and certified for use in hazardous locations (UL, ATEX) for peace of mind in industrial settings.
Easy Operation & Maintenance — Push-button interface, backlit display, adjustable alarms, and field calibration ensure usability in varied conditions.
Long Battery Life — Powered by 3 “C” cell batteries; yields approximately 50 hours of continuous operation.
Typical Applications
Residential and commercial gas line leak surveys
Plumbing and HVAC system diagnostics
Pipeline maintenance and inspection
Utility response and leak repair crews
Industrial gas safety and inspection routines
