When buying a quality point gas detector, the initial CAPEX cost is only a fraction of the overall cost of owning the detector. Depending on the site, the cost of installation can be more than the cost of the detector and then the biggest cost of all is the maintenance cost over the expected 15 to 20 year life of the detector. This will be several times the initial cost of the detector and is why it’s important to consider the Total Cost of Ownership and not just the cost of the detector.

To help evaluate the true costs, our updated online Total Cost of Ownership Calculator can help. You can compare the cost of the ULTIMA^® X5000 / General Monitors S5000 detectors with various types of sensors, against the “Other” makes. The costs shown are indicative, based on our market knowledge, and are to be used as a guide. They can be modified to reflect the actual costs paid by the user for the various items e.g. detector, installation, replacement sensors, calibration gas etc.
