A welcome disruption for the gas monitoring market

摘要

Thinking out of the box' is usually a phrase that R&D engineers use as a metaphor for looking at a challenge from a different perspective but Signal Group's technology development team have taken the phrase to a new level. Following an intensive development program, the company has announced that all of their main line S4 gas analysers are now available with a detachable tablet instead of the traditional built-in screen. "We are not aware of any off-the-shelf gas analysers with this capability anywhere else in the world, so this will dramatically disrupt the gas analyser market," comments Signal Group's Stephane Canadas. "No longer will customers have to manage their analysers, while standing, sitting or squeezing into inconvenient or even hazardous locations; now they will be able to operate their equipment wirelessly from a convenient location nearby, using the instrument's built-in Wi-Fi.
