Description
The
WatchGas SST1 2 Year H2S Gas Detector — Pink is a fixed-life single-gas monitor in a high-visibility pink housing, designed for sites that color-code gas detectors by hazard type or by worker group. It detects hydrogen sulfide for two full years from activation — no calibration scheduling, no battery swaps, no sensor replacements.
The SST1-H-24-P shares the same detection range (0–100 ppm H2S), alarm setpoints (10 ppm / 15 ppm), and IP67 ingress protection as the standard
SST1-H-24. The only difference is the pink housing — audible, visual, and vibration alarms are identical. OSHA's H2S permissible exposure limit is a 20 ppm ceiling; the SST1-H-24-P alarms well below that level to give workers time to exit before reaching the limit.
Key specifications: Detection range 0–100 ppm H2S | Alarm setpoints 10 ppm / 15 ppm | Resolution 1 ppm | Service life 2 years from activation | IP67 rated | Pink housing | No charging required.
For a 3-year service life in the same pink housing, see the
SST1-H-36-P. For teams that want a serviceable H2S detector, the
SST1-H uses the same body in standard coloring with a field-replaceable sensor. Call
1-800-467-4374 for color-coded fleet orders.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is the SST1-H-24-P available in pink?
Many safety programs color-code gas detectors — by department, hazard type, or site zone — so workers can quickly confirm they have the correct instrument. Pink housings are also used in programs that assign monitors to specific individuals or cohorts. The SST1-H-24-P delivers identical detection performance to the standard black SST1-H-24; the housing color is the only difference.
What is OSHA's H2S limit and how do the alarm setpoints relate to it?
OSHA's permissible exposure limit for hydrogen sulfide is a 20 ppm ceiling — workers must not be exposed above that level at any time. The SST1-H-24-P alarms at 10 ppm (low) and 15 ppm (high), giving workers audible, visual, and vibration warnings well below the OSHA ceiling. This buffer provides evacuation time before exposure reaches a level OSHA classifies as over the limit.
Does a fixed-life monitor still need bump testing?
OSHA and NIOSH recommend bump testing gas detectors before each use to verify the sensor responds to the target gas — even for fixed-life units. A short H2S challenge using the
SST1-BS bump test kit confirms the SST1-H-24-P is functioning correctly before a confined-space entry.
When should I choose the 2-year versus the 3-year pink variant?
The SST1-H-24-P suits programs with annual or bi-annual procurement cycles or sites where fresh-unit activation every two years fits naturally into safety audits. The
SST1-H-36-P extends that cycle to three years, reducing replacement frequency for large fleets.
