Photovac Introduces New Detection Instruments To Photoionization Monitors Family

Portable Instruments Offer Extreme Accuracy at Affordable Prices
Waltham, MA Photovac, Inc., the premier provider of hand-held and portable instruments for detection and measurement of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), announces the addition of two new products to its comprehensive assortment of detection instruments. The 2020ppbPRO™ and the 2020gasPRO™ are both extremely accurate yet affordable options, and join the already well-known 2020PRO™ to round out a complete offering of Photoionization Detectors (PIDs).
Capable of extremely low level VOC detection, the 2020ppbPRO PID is ideal for hazmat, industrial hygiene, and environmental applications, as well as indoor air quality surveys. The instrument is designed with parts per billion precision and a dynamic range of 10 ppb to 40 ppm, and can be formatted to detect single VOCs like formaldehyde at the ppb level.
The 2020gasPRO utilizes pre-filter tubes designed by Dräger Safety AG & Company to operate as a single gas detection instrument. The pre-filter tubes are currently able to detect the presence of benzene and are an ideal solution for the hydrocarbon processing industry. Additionally, the creation of several more pre-filter tubes is anticipated, each aimed at detecting specific single gases to address the needs of a variety of markets.
The pre-filter tube holder, designed by Photovac's engineering staff, can be used on all of Photovac's instruments and allows for single gas detection with the 2020gasPRO and optional single gas detection with the 2020ppbPRO. Additionally, the holder can carry activated charcoal tubes used to provide more accurate "clean air" calibration as well as humidity reduction tubes, which allow the original 2020PRO to operate better in even the most extreme humid environments.
