Cub TAC Personal VOC Detector

Designed for Fast Accurate Detection of Volatile Organic and Total Aromatic Compounds Including Benzene. 

SKU
CUBTAC

The Ion Science CubTAC is a personal VOC detector for the fast, accurate detection of total aromatic compounds (TACs), including benzene, keeping you safe within your working environment.

Comfortable and unobtrusive to wear, CubTAC is the smallest, lightest, personal TAC and benzene detector available. The Ion Science CubTAC has a dynamic range of 0 to 5000 parts per million (ppm), with its market leading ppb sensitivity, CubTAC comes with all the benefits of the Cub personal VOC detector but has a 10.0 eV lamp utilising a unique light filtering technology to give a reliable and accurate aromatic hydrocarbon concentration. When worker exposure exceeds pre-set limits Cub’s audible, vibrating and flashing LED alarms alert you to the gases present.

Readings are displayed on its bright, back-lit LCD display with selectable data logging time. CubTAC uses Ion Science patented PID sensor technology that has been independently verified as best performing for speed, accuracy, and humidity resistant operation. Its unique Anti-contamination design and patented Fence Electrode Technology provide extended run time in the most challenging environments, giving you accurate results you can truly rely on.

Three Cub docking stations are available dependent on your requirements:

  1. Charge dock – simply charges the instrument
  2. Comms dock – offers USB communication and charging
  3. Cal dock – offers a calibration facility, USB communication and charging

The Ion Science CubTAC personal TAC and benzene gas detector is just one of a family of products that protects users from ingestion of benzene and other VOC gases. See the Ion Science Tiger Select handheld benzene detector and the Ion Science fixed benzene-specific monitor, Titan.
