Frequently Asked Questions
What is the detection range of the SC-04 NH3 monitor?
The SC-04 NH3 detects ammonia from 0 to 400.00 ppm at 0.5 ppm resolution. Alarm setpoints are preset at 0.05 ppm (1st alarm), 2.00 ppm (2nd alarm), and 4.00 ppm (3rd alarm). TWA is 25 ppm and STEL is 35 ppm, consistent with OSHA's permissible exposure limit for ammonia in general industry.
What industries commonly need NH3 personal monitors?
Ammonia is a refrigerant in food processing, cold storage, and large HVAC systems; a feedstock in agricultural chemical manufacturing; and a byproduct in wastewater treatment. Workers in refrigerated warehouses, fertilizer plants, and treatment facilities use personal NH3 monitors to maintain exposures within OSHA's permissible exposure limit.
How long does the SC-04 NH3 run on batteries?
Two standard AAA alkaline batteries provide up to 3,000 hours of continuous operation at 25°C without the backlight. Batteries are user-replaceable in the field with no tools. The instrument emits a low-battery alarm before power is lost.
Is the RKI SC-04 NH3 intrinsically safe?
Yes. The SC-04 NH3 carries ATEX/IECEx certification and is QPS classified as intrinsically safe, Class I, Division 1, Groups A, B, C, D under C/US. The IP-67 rated enclosure resists dust and water immersion, making it suitable for wet industrial environments where ammonia is present.
How does the SC-04 NH3 compare to other SC-04 family monitors?
The physical housing, battery platform, data logging architecture, and alarm structure are identical across the SC-04 family. The NH3 variant uses an electrochemical sensor tuned for ammonia with a T90 response time of 10 seconds. Note that the NH3 variant carries a 1-year warranty on the sensor (versus a 3-year warranty on select other SC-04 gases such as HCN)—confirm warranty details with PK Safety at 800.829.9580.
