Portable VOC gas detector by Ion Science.

Tiger LT VOC detector [portable VOC gas detector]

portable VOC gas detector

TigerLT is an entry level, portable VOC gas detector. TigerLT by Ion Science is the economical variant of the Tiger VOC detector.

The gas detector provides fast and accurate detection of volatile organic compounds (VOC). The detector incorporates Ion Science’s patented photo ionization detector (PID) technology. The VOC detector is resistant to humidity and has an anti-contamination design, which extends the run time of the device in the field.

The rugged design and detachable protective cover enables the VOC detector to withstand harsh environments.

The portable VOC gas detector has the fastest response time. The detector is easy to use and upgrade. These feature make the detector a reliable investment with the lowest running cost in the market.
