The Forensics Chlorine Analyzer is a handheld, NIST-calibrated Cl2 gas detector reading 0-50 ppm with a built-in pump and 4 ft probe for water treatment, pools and chemical handling, letting you survey and sample chlorine remotely — a monitoring device, not respiratory protection.

Why the Forensics Chlorine Analyzer surveys Cl2 with a pump and probe
Finding a chlorine leak or checking a remote point means you cannot always stand next to it — chlorine is highly toxic, and it is the kind of gas you want to sample from a distance. This analyzer does that: a handheld Cl2 detector reading 0-50 ppm with a built-in pump and a 4 ft probe to draw a sample remotely, plus audible, visual and vibration alarms and NIST-traceable calibration. It covers a gas the four-gas set does not read. As chlorine gas detectors go, this is the portable pump-survey pick, and the gas detection guide and the diffusion vs pump guide explain where it fits. It samples chlorine from a safe distance.
Safety first: a gas detector alarms; it does not protect. In an IDLH or oxygen-deficient atmosphere you must evacuate and use supplied-air or an SCBA — a monitor warns of the hazard, it is not a substitute for respiratory protection, and a chlorine release is immediately dangerous. Bump-test and verify the sensor on schedule, confirm the range and alarm setpoints on the listing, and match the setpoints to your action levels.
What the Forensics Chlorine Analyzer listing documents
From the published specs: a handheld NIST-calibrated Cl2 detector; a 0-50 ppm range; a built-in pump and 4 ft probe for remote sampling; audible, visual and vibration alarms; and a USB-rechargeable body. These are true portable chlorine detector and Cl2 pump analyzer credentials in a chlorine survey monitor. Confirm the range and alarm setpoints on the listing.
How the Forensics Chlorine Analyzer compares to other gas detectors
For a fixed chlorine room monitor, the Forensics Chlorine Wall-Mount; for a portable SO2 analyzer, the Forensics SO2 Analyzer; for a handheld ammonia monitor, the Forensics Ammonia Detector; for a portable four-gas with pump, the Forensics 4-Gas with Pump; and for a handheld VOC monitor, the Forensics VOC Detector. The 4-gas vs single-gas guide and the Forensics meter vs pump guide help you choose.
Choosing the right gas monitor
Match the gas, sampling method, and range to your hazard. Browse the gas detectors, personal gas detectors, and portable gas detectors collections; for area and fixed coverage, the area gas monitors and fixed gas detection systems collections; and for calibration, the calibration accessories collection and the personal monitor guide.
Where it fits by job and crew orders
The Forensics Chlorine Analyzer suits water-treatment plants, pool equipment rooms, and chemical facilities that need to survey for chlorine or sample a remote point — see the gas detection guide and the gas leak detector guide for adjacent tools. Pair a portable analyzer for surveys with a fixed wall-mount monitor to guard the room continuously. Confirm the range and alarm setpoints on the listing, verify the sensor on schedule, and replace it at its service interval.

What a gas monitor has to satisfy
Gas detection instruments carry hazardous-location approvals where the atmosphere may be flammable — Class I Division 1 or 2 in the US, or an ATEX/IECEx equivalent. Those approvals apply to the instrument as configured: swapping a sensor or battery pack outside the listed combination voids them.
The number that governs use is the exposure limit, not the display. 29 CFR 1910.1000 sets permissible exposure limits, and NIOSH publishes RELs and immediately-dangerous concentrations that are frequently lower. For confined-space entry, 1910.146 requires testing in a fixed order — oxygen first, then flammables, then toxics — because a reading taken out of order can be actively misleading.
Every electrochemical sensor drifts. Bump test before each day of use and calibrate on the manufacturer schedule with a known concentration. An instrument that has not been bump-tested is an indicator, not a monitor.

Frequently asked questions
What is the Forensics Chlorine Analyzer?
A handheld, NIST-calibrated Cl2 gas detector reading 0-50 ppm with a built-in pump and 4 ft probe for water treatment, pools and chemical handling, letting you survey and sample chlorine remotely.
What does it detect?
Chlorine (Cl2) only, from 0-50 ppm - a highly toxic gas that the standard four-gas set does not measure. Confirm the range and sensor on the listing.
What does the pump and probe do?
The built-in pump and 4 ft probe draw a sample from a distance, so you can survey for a chlorine source or sample a remote or elevated point without standing in the gas. Confirm the probe length on the listing.
How is it different from the Forensics Chlorine wall-mount detector?
This analyzer is a portable handheld with a pump for surveys and spot checks; the Forensics Chlorine wall-mount is a fixed monitor that guards a room continuously with a relay output. Choose by whether you survey or monitor a fixed room.
Is a gas monitor the same as a respirator?
No - a gas monitor warns of a hazardous atmosphere; it does not filter or supply air. In dangerous atmospheres you must evacuate and use the correct respiratory protection. Confirm your program's requirements.
Does it ship calibrated?
The listing states USA NIST-traceable calibration with a certificate. Confirm the certificate and the calibration schedule on the listing.
What alarms does it have?
The listing states audible, visual and vibration alarms. Confirm the alarm setpoints on the listing and that they match your action levels.
How is it powered?
The listing states it is USB-rechargeable for shift-long use. Confirm the run time and charging on the listing.
Why not just use a four-gas monitor?
A four-gas monitor covers O2, LEL, CO and H2S but not chlorine. Where Cl2 is the hazard, you need a dedicated chlorine analyzer in addition to any four-gas unit.
Where is it used?
Water-treatment plants, pool equipment rooms, and chemical handling where chlorine is stored, dosed or can leak. Confirm your application on the listing.
How do I care for it?
Bump-test and verify the sensor on schedule, keep the pump inlet and probe clear, charge as needed, and replace the sensor at its service interval per the manual.
How do I order for a crew?
Quantity purchasing runs through a free Amazon Business account - volume pricing, PO numbers at checkout, and tax-exempt eligibility for qualifying organizations. The bulk-ordering walkthrough is linked in our site footer.
