Portable Gas Leak Detector, Hand-Held PortaSens Battery Powered Detector.

ATi’s D16 PortaSens innovative, versatile, Portable Gas Leak Detector, is a handheld monitor designed to perform regular leak checks in gas storage areas, around process equipment, piping, or in confined spaces prior to entry.

Using a pump to speed-up gas detection for the protection of people, the D16 also offers alarms and a data logging facility.

The superior sensor used in the PortaSens lll is interchangeable between our fixed and portable devices and use an industry-leading, pre-calibrated ‘vapour’ sensor that requires an annual replacement with no calibration, increasing its efficacy.

Designed for easy one-hand operation, the gas detector contains an internal sample pump and a flexible sampling wand to allow pinpoint location of the source of leakage.

A touch-sensitive color graphic display provides clear concentration display and a back-light for the display ensures readability in low or no light conditions.

A unique feature of the D16 Portasens lll Portable Gas Leak Detector, is its ability to measure a variety of different gases by simply inserting the appropriate sensor for that gas. That makes this gas detector capable of measuring over 60 different gases or vapors, reducing the need to purchase individual detectors for each type of gas. The gas sensors for the detector can be changed quickly and easily, and there is no need for calibration when a gas sensor is change is made.

Advanced Smart Technology

As one of only a few companies around the globe that manufacture a trusted, smart vapour sensor, used in our industry-leading portable and fixed gas monitors, the gas sensors used in the D16 are part of ATI’s smart gas sensor modules. Each sensor module is actually a sensor, amplifier, and memory module in one compact package. Because of this design, sensor modules can be calibrated independently and simply plugged into any detector for immediate use. When installed in a gas detector, calibration data is loaded into the microprocessor so that no adjustments are needed. The result is that a gas detector can, for example, go from phosgene measurement to ammonia measurement in less than one minute.

Locating the source of gas leaks can be a challenge, especially in plant areas with multiple potential leak sources. Ammonia refrigeration piping, ozone generator skids, and hazardous gas piping systems are just a few of the applications where identifying exact leak sites is difficult ATI’s new PortaSens III portable leak detector (Model D16) is ideal for locating leak sources or simply for measuring gas concentrations in the workplace.

With a built-in sampling pump and inlet wand, sample is drawn from precise locations where leaks may occur. Areas around valve packing, flanges, compression fittings and other system components are easily checked to find the higher gas levels that exist near the leak site.

The PortaSens III is physically similar to its predecessor, the PortaSens II which has been in service for the past 15 years. The internals of the instrument have been completely redesigned with a modern USB computer interface, a color touch-screen display, and improved pump control.

As with the original, the D16 detector has the ability to measure a wide variety of gases by simply inserting the appropriate sensor for that gas. The D16 can use any of over 60 different sensor modules, providing nearly unmatched flexibility. Sensors can be changed quickly and easily without the need for calibration.

Sensors used in the PortaSens III are ATI’s H-Series smart sensor modules. Each sensor module is actually a sensor, amplifier, and memory module in one compact package. Because of this design, sensor modules can be calibrated independently and simply plugged into any detector for immediate use. When installed in a detector, calibration data is loaded into the microprocessor so that no adjustments are needed. The result is that a detector can, for example, go from phosgene measurement to ammonia measurement in less than one minute.

Smart Sensors

The basic PortaSens II detector does not include sensor modules. Because the D16 is designed to accept any ATI smart sensor module, you must select one or more sensors from the list below. Each sensor module is factory calibrated at the time of shipment and is ready to use by plugging it into the receptacle in the D16 manifold. Each module can be used for logging data over minimum and maximum ranges indicated.

Carrying Case

PortaSens III Portable Gas Leak Detectors, are supplied in a padded carrying case for easy storage and transport. An extra battery is provided plus space for up to two sensor keepers which means up to 8 extra sensors ready for immediate use.
