Description
The RKI SDM-3R Stand Alone Calibration Station automates the full maintenance cycle for your
RKI GX-3R portable gas monitor — bump testing, full calibration, and charging — in a single compact docking-station form factor. Rather than relying on manual procedures, the SDM-3R sequences every scheduled service step automatically, reducing technician time and eliminating gaps in your gas-detection maintenance log.
Service records are stored automatically within the unit and can be transferred to a PC via the included USB flash drive. The bundled PC software lets safety managers review event history, generate audit-ready compliance reports, and track calibration dates across an entire detector fleet — an important capability for OSHA-regulated confined-space entry programs, oil and gas operations, and municipal wastewater facilities.
What's included with part number 81-SDM3R101:
- SDM-3R calibration station with one solenoid valve
- AC adapter, USB flash drive, and USB cable
- Calibration tubing
Calibration gas is sold separately — RKI's
4-gas calibration mixture is compatible and available on this site. The SDM-3R is designed specifically for the GX-3R; GX-3R Pro fleets require the separate SDM-3R Pro model. For RKI-authorized service or fleet calibration guidance, contact PK Safety Monday–Friday at
800-829-9580.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the RKI SDM-3R calibration station do?
The SDM-3R automates bump testing, full gas calibration, and battery charging for RKI GX-3R portable multi-gas monitors. Each service event is logged automatically and saved to the included USB flash drive for later review on a PC using the bundled software.
Is the SDM-3R compatible with the GX-3R Pro?
No. The SDM-3R is designed for the standard
GX-3R only. GX-3R Pro units require the SDM-3R Pro calibration station, which is configured for the Pro's different connector and gas-delivery path.
Does the SDM-3R store calibration records automatically?
Yes. The unit logs every bump test and calibration event internally. Records are transferred to a PC via USB flash drive. The included software lets you view service history and generate reports — useful for documenting compliance with OSHA confined-space and gas-detection maintenance requirements.
Is calibration gas included with the SDM-3R?
No. Calibration gas is sold separately. RKI's compatible
4-gas calibration mixture and a
demand-flow regulator are available on this site. RKI recommends bump testing before each day's use and full calibration at least every six months.
How often should I calibrate the RKI GX-3R?
RKI recommends a bump test before each use and a full calibration at minimum every six months — or more frequently if the detector is exposed to contaminants, high-concentration gases, or physical impact. Your site safety program or applicable OSHA standard may require a more frequent schedule.
