2. Product Overview
The TIGER XTL is a portable gas detector that uses photo-ionization technology to detect a large
range of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) which can be dangerous from both a poisoning and
explosive perspective.
The TIGER XTL uses a Photo-Ionization Detector (PID) to measure gas concentrations. The patented
fence electrode technology minimises the effects of moisture and contamination, avoiding the need
for compensation.
The TIGER XTL has an intuitive graphical interface allowing easy access to instrument settings. Two
keys A and B can be configured to suit the user’s application, so many functions can be
selected without entering the main menu structure. This improves efficiency of use, particularly with
repeatable tasks.
