Description
The RKI 49-2023 is an OEM DC adapter with a USB connection that allows the RKI
GX-3R or
GX-3R Pro multi-gas monitor to be charged from any standard USB power source — including USB wall chargers, computer ports, and portable USB power banks. The 49-2023 provides flexibility for workers who need to top up instrument charge in offices, vehicles, or field environments where a dedicated charger is not immediately available.
Frequently Asked Questions
What USB power sources work with the 49-2023?
The 49-2023 is compatible with standard USB Type-A power sources providing 5 VDC output — including USB wall adapters, laptop USB ports, vehicle USB sockets, and USB power banks rated for device charging. Verify that the USB power source provides adequate current output; low-current USB ports (such as some legacy computer ports) may charge slowly or not at all.
Does the 49-2023 use USB-A or USB-C?
The 49-2023 uses a standard USB-A male plug on the power-source end. Confirm the cable configuration matches your available USB port type before ordering. The
GX-3R Pro AC Adaptor
49-0133 may be preferred for full-speed wall charging.
Can I charge a GX-Force with this adapter?
No. The GX-Force uses a dedicated USB-C adapter (49-0139). The 49-2023 is for the
GX-3R and
GX-3R Pro only. Always match the adapter to the specific instrument model.
Is a USB power bank adequate for charging the
GX-3R Pro in the field?
A quality USB power bank rated at 2A or higher will charge the
GX-3R Pro effectively. This approach is useful for remote field operations where AC or vehicle power is unavailable. Ensure the power bank is adequately charged before deploying it as an emergency charging source.
