RKI Eagle 2

6 Gas Sample Draw Monitor

The EAGLE and EAGLE 2 have been two of the most popular monitors for decades, but due to the discontinuation of critical components, both instruments are no longer available. Replacement parts for the EAGLE and EAGLE 2, including sensors and filters, will continue to be available for many years.
The GX-6000, GX-8000, and SC-8000 models are excellent alternatives to the EAGLE and EAGLE 2, especially for standard 4-gas and single gas toxic versions.

The EAGLE 2 is the solution for just about any portable gas monitoring situation. Equipped with features that are not available on competitive units, the EAGLE 2 is a powerful instrument that does more than just offer the standard confined space protection for LEL, O2, H2S and CO. The EAGLE 2 offers easy access to controls such as auto-calibration, alarm silence, demand zero, peak hold, and methane elimination. Each channel has two alarm levels plus TWA and STEL alarms for toxic channels. The two alarm levels are user adjustable and can be latching or self resetting.

The EAGLE 2 available features include a PID sensor for detecting high or low ppm levels (0-50 & 0-2,000) of VOC gases; % volume capability for CH4 and H2 using a TC (thermal conductivity) sensor; PPM or LEL hydrocarbon detection at the push of a button; infrared sensors for CO2 (ppm or % volume), methane or hydrocarbons in LEL and % volume ranges; methane elimination feature for environmental applications; and a variety of super toxic gases. The EAGLE 2 has a strong internal pump with a low flow auto pump shut off and alarm, which can draw samples from up to 125 feet. This allows for quick response and recovery from distant sampling locations. The EAGLE 2 will continuously operate for over 18 hours on alkaline batteries or 20 hours on NiMH. A variety of accessories are also available to help satisfy almost any application such as long sample hoses, special float probes for tank testing, and dilution fittings, just to name a few. Data-logging is a standard feature for all sensors on all versions.

The Eagle 2 is ideal for performing EPA Method 21 fugitive emission monitoring of VOC leaks from process equipment.. EPA Method 21- Determination of Volatile Organic Compound Leaks, is a test method used for the determination of leaks of VOCs from process equipment. The Eagle 2 meets the requirements for portable instruments used for this purpose as outlined in Sections 6 and 8 of Method 21. For more info about Method 21, see the RKI FAQ; Do the RKI Eagle and Eagle 2 Portable Gas Monitors Conform to EPA Method 21 Performance Criteria?

EAGLE 2 PID Response Factors for VOCs

Photoionization detectors are calibrated using isobutylene, but PID is a broadband VOC detection technique, with a sensitivity that differs for each VOC. If you know what VOC you are detecting, then the table below will allow you to calculate the concentration for your specific VOC. Remember, these are approximate values, so for best accuracy you should calibrate with the relevant VOC. Multiply the indicated concentration by the appropriate Relative Response value to provide an estimate of actual VOC concentration. Download PDF of Eagle 2 PID Response Factors for VOCs
