The Crowcon Gas-Pro is the newest member of the Crowcon personnel gas monitor range. Although only launched a few months ago, many customers have converted over to this superb instrument.
As discussed in my original blog ‘Confined Space Entry – is your gas detector right for the job?’, the Crowcon Gas-Pro has been designed to allow more sensor to be utilised with the instrument will less cross sensitivity or conflict. With the introduction of further sensors, the instrument can be configured for a wider range of applications other than confined space.

Crowcon Detection Instruments
When sourcing a gas monitor, the first thing a customer always encounters is the vast array of instruments and manufacturers. In recent years, the choice has increased with the development of smaller, lighter models featuring larger screens, simpler functions and a greater array of sensors.
Instrument features are not the only consideration that should be taken into account, reliability, cost of ownership and functionality in arduous environments should always be at the top of the list of considerations when choosing a safety related product.
A range of instruments that can meet these considerations and more, are from the UK based manufacturer, Crowcon.
Crowcon Detection Instruments are specialises in developing toxic gas detection equipment. With over 40 years experience, Crowcon has developed a range of gas detection instruments that are extremely reliable and provides a low cost of ownership. We know, their gas monitors have been operating within our hire fleet for over 15 years.
Under the guidance of their parent company, Halam PLC, Crowcon is able to call upon extensive resources for the development of market leading products. Based in Abingdon, Oxfordshire, the company has grown to encompass sales and support centres worldwide with major hubs in North America, Netherlands, Singapore, India and China. 60% of sales are now outside the United Kingdom.
Crowcon’s range is comprehensive from small single sensors to industrial fixed systems. Their pioneering attitude has enabled them to develop innovative products, like their area gas monitors, the Detective+ allowing a large site to be monitored. Or my favourite, the new Crowcon Gas-Pro which can monitor up to 5 separate gases.
So why are they dependable?
Crowcon design their instruments for functionality, reliability and robustness above all.
Major investments has been undertaken to ensure the design team understand customer requirements. Product managers play a lead role in instrument development. They investigate core markets, keeping in touch with customer and application requirements. This ensures that Crowcon instruments meet industrial demands and ensures their instruments run at optimum performance.
When developing the latest personnel gas detection instrument for confined space applications, the develop team underwent confined space courses to understand application demands. This essential training help guide the development of the new Crowcon Gas-Pro gas monitor.
Specification of sensors is no different. The latest range of sensors has been tested to ensure that they can perform in the field. Dual sourcing enables Crowcon to employ several sensors
Increased Warranty
Crowcon’s philosophy is to look to the future. Advances made in the improvement in reliability have allowed the company to offer extended warranty on many of their products. The extended 2 and 3 year warranty reduces cost of ownership further and increase the life expectancy of gas detection instruments.

The next generation gas monitor - BW GasAlertQuattro
BW Technologies have launched their new generation BW GasAlertQuattro gas detector which has been designed to provide enhanced confidence through rugged reliability and enhanced features.
Several key customer requirements have been addressed with the new BW GasAlertQuattro, improved screen to check the instrument, improved gas sensors and more importantly confidence in the instrument.
Large Clear Display
The BW GasAlertQuattro features a larger LCD display with easy to identify icons that indicate operational information, such as bump test and calibration status for simplified onsite auditing. A large heart icon pulses continually during normal operation to indicate that the instrument and environment is OK.
However, if the instrument alarms a new hazardous symbol will be displayed, highlighting the alarm.
IntelliFlash
The IntelliFlash, a green LED that continuously flashes to let the safety manager know their crew is safe, the site is compliant and the job is productive. That means no manual checks, no time spent inspecting just a quick visual scan of the area provides assurance all is well in minutes, not hours. So safety managers can spend more time on the job, not auditing equipment.
The audible alarm is different if the battery is low to a gas alarm.
Improved Sensors
BW has rigorously investigated all the sensors available on the open market and selected the best sensors for reliability and overall performance. With over 10 billion field hours the Surecell range of sensors meets customer demands for improved sensor design.
Longer Running Times
The BW GasAlertQuattro delivers longer run times that allow workers do more in all extremes the work environment demands. The interchangeable battery pack means customers can do more and spend less. They need to buy only one monitor because the battery pack transfers in the time it takes workers to change shifts. So there’s never any downtime with the personal gas monitor that’s ready for work 24 hours/7 days a week.
Single Button Operation
The BW Gas Alert Quattro utilises a single one button operation. The push button has been design for easy operation whilst wearing gloves.
Features
- IntelliFlash verifies operation and compliance
- One-button operational simplicity
- Easy to identify icons
- Field-proven Surecell sensors
- Easy-to-read, LCD displays all gas concentrations simultaneously
- Audible, visual and vibrating alarm
- Extended alarm bars
- Flexible, interchangeable battery option
- Full function self-test is initiated upon activation and runs continuously during operation
- Heartbeat pulses continually during normal operation
- Extensive data and event logging capability
- User-options, such as tamper-proof operati
- Multi-language support
- Compatible with MicroDock II calibration system
