Your PID and Multi-Gas Meter Weren’t Replaced—Just Enhanced
Improve hazmat decision-making with the gas identification technology of XplorIR to enhance your PID and multi-gas meters. Quickly identify chemicals on-scene, close information gaps, and turn basic readings into actionable intelligence.
This white paper explains why traditional hazmat tools—specifically the PID (photoionization detector) and multi-gas meter—remain essential, but also why they’ve historically left responders with critical information gaps. While these instruments quickly alert teams to changing atmospheric conditions, they cannot identify the specific chemical causing the alarm. That missing identification creates delays, uncertainty, and tactical limitations in the earliest and most crucial moments of a response.
By adding rapid on-scene gas identification technology with XplorIR, responders can interpret PID and LEL readings with accuracy, apply correction factors correctly, and transform raw data into actionable intelligence. This combination shrinks the uncertainty gap, improves tactical decision-making, and enhances safety on everything from “odd odor” calls to major industrial incidents.
