Description

The BW Clip Real Time 2-Year O2 Detector (BWC2R-X) is a lightweight and easy to handle single gas detector for oxygen with a real-time gas level display and user-calibration capability. Designed for a wide range of harsh environments and extreme temperatures, this monitor has default alarm setpoints at 19.5% vol. to 23.5% vol. It provides two years of maintenance-free operation: just turn on the device, and it runs continuously. There is no need for sensor replacement and battery charging or replacement.

It is based on Surecell and Reflex Technology. Surecell is a unique dual reservoir sensor design that dramatically improves instrument performance, response time, and longevity. Reflex Technology is an advanced automated internal test function that routinely checks the operating condition of the sensor to increase safety, uptime, and overall worker confidence.

Manual

Regulatory Note: OSHA defines an oxygen-deficient atmosphere as less than 19.5% O2 and an oxygen-enriched atmosphere as greater than 23.5% O2 per 29 CFR 1910.146. Oxygen monitoring is required before entry into permit-required confined spaces and throughout operations. The BWC2R-X's default setpoints align with these regulatory definitions. The real-time display enables workers to observe oxygen levels continuously during confined space entry operations.

Please Note: MM and DD denote the number of months and days left before the gas monitor expires. Once activated, these units cannot be shut down and will continue to run for their two-year life span, prohibiting these items from being shipped because the alarm may be activated during transit. Additionally, these items are unable to be resold after activation.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the BWC2R-X differ from the standard BW Clip O2 (BWC2-X)?

The BWC2-X (standard BW Clip) is a sealed, non-calibratable monitor with no digital display — it only alarms at the 19.5% and 23.5% thresholds. The BWC2R-X (BW Clip Real Time) adds a real-time O2 concentration display (0–25% vol.) and supports user-initiated calibration, allowing workers to monitor oxygen levels continuously rather than waiting for an alarm.

What is the real-time O2 display range on the BWC2R-X?

The BWC2R-X displays real-time oxygen readings from 0 to 25% vol. The default alarm setpoints are 19.5% vol. (low — oxygen-deficient) and 23.5% vol. (high — oxygen-enriched), consistent with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.146 definitions. The adjustable setpoint range is 18% vol. to 25% vol.

Is the BWC2R-X required for confined space entry?

OSHA 29 CFR 1910.146 requires atmospheric testing of oxygen levels before and during entry into permit-required confined spaces. While the specific instrument is not mandated, the BWC2R-X's real-time O2 display and 19.5%/23.5% default alarm setpoints align directly with OSHA regulatory definitions. The unit supports continuous monitoring throughout confined space operations.

Can the BWC2R-X be calibrated?

Yes. The BWC2R-X supports user-initiated calibration using the included calibration cap and hose with appropriate O2 calibration gas. Calibrate regularly to maintain sensor accuracy, especially in environments with high humidity or frequent O2 concentration fluctuations. PK Safety also offers factory-authorized calibration service — call 800.829.9580.

What hazardous location certifications does the BWC2R-X carry?

The BWC2R-X is certified for Class I, Div. 1, Gr. A, B, C, D; Class I, Zone 0, Gr. IIC; Ex ia IIC T4 Ga IP66/67; IECEx UL 14.0063; DEMKO 14 ATEX 1356; CE European Conformity. Its IP 66/67 rating provides full dust-tight protection and resistance to water immersion up to 1 meter. Operating temperature is -4 to +122°F.
