Rel-Tek has pioneered in gas detection for the alt-fuel transit industry since the inception of CNG buses over a decade ago. Rel-Tek drew on its quarter-century of pioneering product development, experience and know-how -- from monitoring underground mines -- to tackle the dynamic alt-fuel transit industry. We continue to maintain that leadership role with the introduction of the SafeBoss sensor/alarm product line. Our new SafeBoss monitoring and alarm products provide the safety solution for smaller bus garages where budgets are limited, but safety is not. The features and capabilities of an engineered system are provided at an affordable price and without compromising performance, reliability or security.


The SafeBoss area monitor is a complete single-sensor gas detection system. It is specifically designed for easy startup and operation. Installed conveniently on the wall of your facility, the SafeBoss controller connects to your choice of a Rel-Tek combustible, oxygen or toxic sensor, which can be installed high under the roof, in a pit, or anywhere leaking gas is likely to accumulate. It can even partner with a variety of other transmitters such as relative humidity, temperature, smoke and air velocity using duplicate controllers. Sensors can be located up to 1,000 ft away. Larger systems are available on request, even including our unique automatic calibration utilities.

  1. Adaptable: Select gas sensors for methane, propane and other combustibles, oxygen, carbon monoxide or a variety of other toxics, see attached list. Temperature, relative humidity, smoke and air velocity are other options.

  2. Powerful: Microprocessor electronics with precise controls and gas alarms

  3. Programmable: Simple push button menu sets detection ranges, alarm set points, hysteresis and manual or automatic alarm reset.

  4. Integral Alarms: A brilliant amber strobe and distinctive warble horn alert personnel of deteriorating conditions.

  5. Intrinsic Safety: Sensors are approved I.S. for installation in hazardous areas. I.S. is safer than XP ratings; and I.S. is easier to install and maintain. Plus, you never have to declassify the area for service -- an XP sensor offers annoyance and ongoing cost issues.

  6. Robust enclosure: Controller has rugged steel NEMA-12 box with easy open hinged-clamp lid. Strobe and horn are integral, facilitating installation.

  7. Display: Continuously shows the gas level up front on the 1/2" high, 4 digit LCD

  8. Open sensor enclosure: Ventilated aluminum box avoids moisture buildup, the nemesis of XP equipment.

  9. Manual or Automatic Reset: For security, manual or key-lock alarm reset available

  10. Standard 4-20ma signal: Available for external recorder, data logger or PLC.

  11. Isolated 10-Amp Relays: HI/Low contacts for remote alarms and exhaust fan activation.

  12. Low cost, long life, low maintenance: Translates to "lowest cost of ownership"

  13. A quarter century of Rel-Tek gas monitoring expertise: Ahead, way ahead!

  14. Made with pride in the USA: No outsourcing here
