The Forensics 4 Gas Monitor with Pump is a NIST-calibrated portable four-gas instrument with a motorized sample-draw pump and probe that draws air from a sealed space so you can test oxygen, combustible LEL, carbon monoxide and hydrogen sulfide before anyone enters β€” a monitoring device, not respiratory protection.

Why the Forensics 4 Gas Monitor with Pump tests before entry

You cannot clear a confined space by putting a worker in it β€” you have to test the atmosphere first, from outside. That is what the pump does: a motorized sample-draw pump and probe pull air from the depth of a tank, vault or manhole so the four confined-space gases (O2, LEL, CO, H2S) are read before anyone enters. It ships NIST-calibrated for documented accuracy and signals with audible, visual and vibration alarms. As confined-space equipment goes, this is the pre-entry sample-draw pick, and the gas detection guide and the diffusion vs pump guide explain where it fits. It reads the space before a worker ever goes in.

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 β€” a monitor warns of the hazard, it is not a substitute for respiratory protection. Draw the pre-entry sample in the right order (oxygen first, then combustible, then toxics) from top, middle and bottom of the space, bump-test before each use, calibrate on the manufacturer schedule, and confirm the sensor configuration and alarm setpoints on the listing.

What the Forensics 4 Gas Monitor with Pump listing documents

From the published specs: a NIST-calibrated electrochemical four-gas instrument (O2, CO, H2S, LEL); a motorized sample-draw pump and probe for remote pre-entry testing; triple alarms; and a portable body for field use. These are true sample-draw gas detector and confined space pre-entry monitor credentials in a pump 4-gas monitor. Confirm the probe length and alarm setpoints on the listing.

How the Forensics 4 Gas Monitor with Pump compares to other gas detectors

For a budget sample-draw pump alternative, the Forsensal 4-Gas with Pump; for the USB-rechargeable diffusion base, the Forensics Detectors 4-Gas USB; for a compact diffusion 4-gas, the Forensics Mini 4-Gas; for a datalogging premium 4-gas, the GasAlertMicroClip XL; and for a compact certified 4-gas, the RKI GX3R. The Forensics meter vs pump guide and the best 4-gas monitor guide help you choose.

Choosing the right gas monitor

Match the sampling method, gases, and calibration to your entry program. Browse the gas detectors, portable gas detectors, and 4-gas monitors collections; for the confined-space kit, the confined-space tripod guide; and for keeping it calibrated, the calibration accessories and personal gas detectors collections, plus the 4-gas vs single-gas guide and the combustible gas detectors collection.

Where it fits by job and crew orders

The pump 4-gas suits confined-space entry teams in utilities, water, oil and gas, and construction who must test tanks, vaults and manholes before entry β€” see the personal monitor guide for the wearables each worker also carries and the area gas monitors collection for continuous coverage. A pump is what turns a four-gas monitor into a true pre-entry testing tool. Confirm the probe length, sensor configuration, and alarm setpoints on the listing, bump-test before use, and calibrate on schedule.

excellent gas monitor tool.
Nice quality tool arrives with a calibration certificate. I selected this unit as a middle of the road replacement for another unit that had been stolen. I am very satisfied with this unit. Replacement parts and calibration services are local to the LA market which was also a factor in my choosing this unit. And the videos are great!

Life saving product.
Gives an accurate reading of the levels of four gases. Will alert you to a level of carbon monoxide that is sufficient to make you sick, but insufficient to trigger a standard household alarm.

Great product
This seems like it would be a great product however, I did send it back before I used it because I decided to have my condo tested professionally. Before I returned it, I read through all the instructions and it seems like it would be a great product to have if you worked anywhere near home Construction

Easy to use and has testable.
Works extremely well. Able to gas test the unit and with the addition of the external sample pump able to test various levels inside the confined spaces

accuracy is slightly suspect but overall very good option for price point technicians
Our company has purchased several of these for green technicians as a way for them to be able to learn all aspects of a proper furnace maintenance and these work great for that particular use. Accuracy is not as spot on as I would have liked but that comes with the price point. Would still buy again for green techs and recommend it to them until they can afford the higher end tools.

Giving 5 stars as used for Oxygen detector in confined space, not yet tested on gas.
Seems solid enough, easy to use, battery packs were already charged, plug and play. Comes with certificate of calibration, and they recommend to send in for calibration every 6 months.

It works well
I am an HVAC professional. I only use this item for explosive gas search and carbon monoxide detection. It is easy to use. The instruction are straight forward and the multigas detector seems to be as accurate as fieldpiece and sensorcon. I have zero complaints with this device.
