Benzene Selective Monitors
Our latest product within the range is the Cub personal PID monitor, the world’s smallest, lightest, most sensitive gas detector for the accurate detection of volatile organic and total aromatic compounds. With market leading ppb sensitivity, Cub gives an early warning of exposure to hazardous gases, including benzene, before they reach harmful levels.
Tiger Select is a revolutionary hand-held gas detector with two mode operation for the rapid detection of benzene and Total Aromatic Compounds. Tiger Select utilises the Ion Science high output 10.0 eV detection system displaying a reading for Total Aromatic Compounds (TACs) immediately on start-up. Should aromatics be detected, a Draeger benzene pre-filter tube can be easily attached to ensure rapid detection and selective measurement of benzene.

GasCheck Leak Detectors
Frequently Asked Questions
Designed specifically for the detection of gas leaks, our range of GasCheck gas leak detectors respond rapidly to any gas, or gas mixture.
The advanced micro-thermal conductivity sensor of the GasCheck G accurately detects the smallest of gasleaks down to cc/sec, mg/m³ or ppm levels.
The GasCheck IS gas leak detector is the only ATEX approved, Intrinsically Safe leak detector on the market. Its Intrinsic Safety proves an ideal tool for use in areas classified as zone zero flammable, and can safely detect flammable gases.
Our GasCheck gas leak detectors are conveniently calibrated against helium and are particularly sensitive to ammonia, argon, butane, hydrogen, SF6 and refrigerants.
Handheld Gas Leak Detectors:
Ground Gas Monitors
New to our range of products, the GasClam ground gas monitor is the first gas monitor to give continuous, unmanned ground gas data collection.
Its ability to log long-term, real trend information is a revolution in gas management and risk prediction allowing informed decisions to be made on accurate, reliable data.

Hydrogen Flux Monitors
Frequently Asked Questions
Hydrosteel Flux Literature
Our unique range of hydrogen flux corrosion monitors provide accurate, rapid measurement of hydrogen flux, non-intrusively, at high criticality sites within petrochemical, gas production and petrochemical refining operations.
Hydrosteel hydrogen flux measurements provide a real time indication of active corrosion non-intrusively. Active corrosion data is essential for investigating the causes of corrosion, it’s mitigation and control. It is also used to assess the corrosion costs associated with use of opportunity crudes.
Hydrogen Flux Corrosion Monitors:
Mercury Vapour Detectors
Our mercury vapour detectors provide rapid, accurate and continuous detection of mercury vapours. The revolutionary dual beam technology of the MVI (Mercury Vapour Indicator) means the instrument does not saturate or require regenerating between readings, eliminating downtime.

PID / VOC Gas Detectors
Frequently Asked Questions
Photoionisation Detection (PID) for Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs)VOC PID Gas Detectors
Our portfolio of handheld, portable and fixed PID gas detectors rapidly and accurately detect VOCs from 1 ppb – 20,000 ppm, a range unmatched by other PID gas detectors on the market.
Proven PID Technology
Our leading range of PID gas detectors are independently verified as the best performing PID technology available. Results prove our PID gas detectors outperform competing instruments within humid environments and give faster, more accurate and more consistent results.
