BW RIGRAT
Honeywell BW RigRat brings a new level of user-friendliness to transportable multi-gas area monitoring. Simply place the monitor nearby, and it will alert workers to area gas threats so they can take necessary action.
The Honeywell BW RigRat is engineered for ease of use, with its one-button operation. Simply turn it on and it’s ready to deploy- no expertise or further training required. It convenient handles, light-weight, and carrying strap makes it extremely portable, allowing you to move it around your location as required.

BW RIGRAT
Transportable Multi-gas Area Monitor
Honeywell BW RigRat brings a new level of user-friendliness to transportable multi-gas area monitoring, so your people can work with confidence in hazardous areas. Simply place the monitor nearby, and it will alert workers to area gas threats so they can take action.
Grab and go. Like other Honeywell BW products, Honeywell BW RigRat is engineered for ease, with one-button operation. Simply turn it on and it's ready to deploy- no expertise required. Convenient handles and a carrying strap make it easy to take with you.
Unlike some transportable area monitors, Honeywell BW RigRat is fully self-contained - with no need to repurpose your personal gas detectors for an area monitoring application. Instead, continue using your personal detectors to monitor workers' breathing zone, while using Honeywell BW RigRat to monitor an area. It is so easy to use that workers can operate it with confidence, trusting it to alert them to gas threats in their proximity
Up to 8 weeks of runtime on a single charge
Up to six slots for interchangeable gas sensors
Integrated Noise sensor and Metrological data sensors
Enhanced configurations with programmable input and output
Easy To Use
One button operation, just grab and go. Also, simple setup with a smartphone. Easy mobile app for alarm set points calibration records and more.
Wireless Safety Perimeter
