Radius® BZ1 Area Monitor

Trust the area monitor designed for the world’s harshest environments. Alarms that sound at 108dB, bold LED lights, and clear alarm action messages like “EVACUATE” cut through even the busiest work areas. With local and remote monitoring options, everyone from teams working nearby to safety managers off site will know there’s a hazard and how to respond.

  • Never miss an alarm thanks to old, bright LED lights.
  • Show gas readings from nearby monitors so you know what’s happening across your site and to your peers.
  • Gain visibility from a distance with a large, easy-to-read screen.
  • Get to work faster with drop-and-go setup and a sturdy all-weather base.
  • Cut right through high-noise environments with alarms that sound at 108 dB, plus bold LED lights.
  • Know what’s happening at a distance with the largest display of any area monitor and customizable alarm action messages, such as “EVACUATE” or “VENTILATE.”
  • Minimize the cost of labor and risks of charging and rotating equipment in hazardous locations using Solar Power Supply, which gives you unlimited run time.
  • DualSense® Technology uses two sensors to detect the same gas, bolstering your safety efforts.
  • With Radius BZ1, you can detect up to seven gases simultaneously using 18 sensor options, including photoionization detectors (PID).
