ATEX Portable photoionization detector WatchGas NEO

The WatchGas NEO is a cutting‑edge handheld VOC monitor designed to detect volatile organic compounds with ultra‑low sensitivity, even down to ppb (parts per billion) levels. Using a precision photoionization detector (PID) paired with an advanced UV lamp, it delivers exceptional accuracy, linearity, and stability across a wide dynamic range of 1 ppb to up to 15,000 ppm. Ideal for industrial hygiene, leak detection, and environmental monitoring, the NEO supports real‑time data monitoring via USB or BLE connectivity for seamless integration with WatchGas Suite software.
