About AGS Technology™
Airspace engineers have set the standard by providing the marketplace a family of safe, economically sound, gas monitors that utilize patent-pending Advanced Gas Sensor (AGS) Technology™.
The AGS Technology™ provides a highly sensitive sensor that responds quickly in detecting lethal gases. Even low concentrations of CO can be detected within seconds. The environment is sampled every 20 seconds while alarming.
The AGS Technology™ allows Airspace monitors to promise five years of cost-effective, warrantied use. Our solid-state sensor design means there is nothing to wear-out or replace. The sensor's performance remains consistent over time.
Airspace engineering has overcome the power-limitations of earlier solid-state based sensors. The Airspace Monitor uses just two AA alkaline batteries. Up to three-month's of typical 8-hour shift operation is possible.
Airspace lethal gas monitors have been rigorously tested and all models have the approval by the Underwriters Laboratory, Inc., for use in Class 1, Division 1, Group A, B, C, and D, T3C environments.
The Airspace family of lethal gas monitors are ideal for markets such as fire, police, EMT, HVAC, industrial hygiene, camping, pilots, boating, security and all applications where the detection of CO and other lethal gases is desired.
The cost of ownership is significantly lower with Airspace AGS Technology™. By eliminating sensor replacement and routine calibration, the Airspace Gas Monitor provides the most cost effective solution.
