Description
The
WatchGas SST1 3 Year H2S Gas Detector — Pink is the longest fixed-life option in the SST1 H2S pink line: three years of continuous hydrogen sulfide detection from a single activation, in a high-visibility pink housing. No calibration, no battery swaps, no sensor replacements for the full 36-month service life.
Detection range is 0–100 ppm H2S with audible, visual, and vibration alarms at 10 ppm and 15 ppm — well below OSHA's 20 ppm H2S ceiling. IP67-rated against water and dust ingress. The SST1-H-36-P is dimensionally identical to the standard
SST1-H-36; the pink housing is the only difference. Sites that color-code by hazard or by employee group can deploy the pink variant alongside standard black units without any performance trade-off.
Key specifications: Detection range 0–100 ppm H2S | Alarm setpoints 10 ppm / 15 ppm | Resolution 1 ppm | Service life 3 years from activation | IP67 rated | Pink housing | Audible, visual, vibration alarm.
For a shorter commitment on the same platform, the
SST1-H-24-P delivers two-year fixed-life coverage in the same pink housing. Teams that prefer a serviceable H2S instrument can reference the
SST1-H. Call
1-800-467-4374 for fleet pricing and staggered-activation programs.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is different about the pink housing on the SST1-H-36-P?
The pink housing is a color-identification feature only. All electrical, electrochemical, and performance specifications — detection range, alarm setpoints, IP67 protection, service life — are identical to the standard
SST1-H-36. Sites use the pink variant for color-coding programs that assign instruments by department, hazard classification, or individual worker.
How does the SST1-H-36-P alarm before reaching the OSHA H2S ceiling?
OSHA's H2S permissible exposure limit is a 20 ppm ceiling — not an 8-hour average, but an absolute not-to-exceed level at any time. The SST1-H-36-P triggers a low alarm at 10 ppm and a high alarm at 15 ppm. Both thresholds fire audible, visual, and vibration alerts simultaneously, giving workers time to evacuate before exposure reaches a level OSHA classifies as above the permissible limit.
Does a 3-year fixed-life detector require annual calibration?
No. Fixed-life gas detectors are factory-calibrated and sealed at manufacture. The SST1-H-36-P does not require field calibration during its 36-month service life. However, pre-use bump testing — applying a brief H2S challenge gas at the sensor — is still recommended by OSHA and NIOSH before confined-space entries. The
SST1-BS bump test kit is compatible with SST1-H-36-P.
How does the 3-year service life affect fleet replacement logistics?
A 3-year service life reduces the number of replacement cycles and procurement events compared to 2-year or 1-year fixed-life instruments. For large deployments, staggered activation schedules prevent mass simultaneous end-of-life across the fleet. PK Safety can help plan activation schedules for orders of 25 units or more — call
1-800-467-4374.
