RKI GD-K88AI Diffusion Sensor/Transmitter for CO
Description
The RKI GD-K88AI Diffusion Sensor/Transmitter for Carbon Monoxide (CO) monitors 0-150 ppm with an easy-to-read LCD display and external push-button controls. The intrinsically safe (IS) design is only 1.9 inches thick; its hinged housing allows quick sensor access without specialized tools.
Please call Customer Service at
800.829.9580 if you have questions in choosing the correct product.
The GD-K88AI installs with any RKI controller or integrates into existing PLC or DCS systems via 4-20 mA output (24 VDC two-wire, loop-powered):
Beacon 110,
Beacon 200,
Beacon 410, or
Beacon 800.
Applications: Semiconductor manufacturing, Petrochemical plants, Refineries, Water & wastewater treatment plants, Pulp & paper mills, Gas and electric utilities, Steel, Automotive, Refrigeration, Food storage, Power plants

Frequently Asked Questions
What gas does the GD-K88AI detect and what is its range?
The GD-K88AI monitors Carbon Monoxide (CO) at 0-150 ppm. This range addresses CO hazards in parking garages, food-storage facilities, manufacturing operations, and utility substations, helping facilities maintain concentrations within OSHA's permissible exposure limit framework.
Is the GD-K88AI rated for hazardous classified locations?
Yes. The GD-K88AI is an intrinsically safe (IS) design. When paired with appropriate optional IS barriers, it is rated for use in classified hazardous areas, making it suitable for petrochemical, refinery, and semiconductor environments where CO monitoring near ignition sources is required.
How long do GD-K88AI sensors typically last?
CO sensors in the GD-K88AI are rated for a typical service life of 3 to 5 years under normal conditions, delivering a competitive total cost of ownership for fixed-point CO monitoring. The hinged housing simplifies sensor access during scheduled replacement.
What controllers does the GD-K88AI work with?
The GD-K88AI transmits a 4-20 mA signal on a 24 VDC two-wire, loop-powered circuit and integrates with the RKI
Beacon 110,
Beacon 200,
Beacon 410, or
Beacon 800 controllers, as well as any third-party PLC or DCS accepting standard 4-20 mA analog input.
How do I get support or order the RKI GD-K88AI from PK Safety?
As an RKI Factory Authorized Service Center, PK Safety stocks the GD-K88AI and provides calibration and application support. Call
800.829.9580 to confirm availability, discuss IS barrier pairing, or schedule calibration service.
