MultiRAE Wing Tank Entry Kit - Rental
Rent RAE Systems - MultiRAE Wing-Tank Entry Kit.
The MultiRAE Wingtank Entry Kit is a unique solution customized to improve the safety of any wingtank entry program. RAE Systems has helped a number of major airlines, air forces and aircraft manufacturers put together a simple program that utilizes the MultiRAE Plus’s PID (Photoionization Detector) instead of traditional wheatstone bridge LEL (Lower Explosive Limit) sensors for measuring jet fuel vapors. Simply put:
Wheatstone bridge sensors are designed to measure methane, not hydrocarbons. Jet fuel is a mixture of hydrocarbons, and PIDs are the best compact hydrocarbon detectors.
PIDs are a superior sensor for Lower Explosive Limit (LEL) alarms in the jet fuel environment because their sensitivity makes them less prone to false alarms. PIDs provide users with greater confidence in their meter readings and thus greater confidence in their safety when entering a potentially hazardous environment.
The MultiRAE Wingtank Entry Kit is customized specifically for entering aircraft wingtanks that previously contained jet fuel. The monitor's alarms, gas measurement scales, and calibration gases are all specially tailored for use in environments containing jet fuel vapors. In addition to a PID, the MultiRAE used in our Wingtank Entry Kit also includes an Oxygen sensor and a traditional LEL sensor that provides a backup reading for the PID. While the MultiRAE Plus has an additional 2 toxic gas sensor sockets that may be filled with CO, H2S, or any two of our 10 toxic gas sensors, these two toxic sockets are not filled in the MultiRAE Wingtank Entry Kit as they are typically not required in this particular environment.
| • | PID sensor provides reliable and consistent readings | |
