Our G8 Single/Multi-Gas Monitors connect workers with help when they need it most.
Ready to take your gas safety program further? Your devices are your key to Blackline Live, and the powerful insights and tools only available through our connected safety platform.
When hazardous gases are present, there's no room for uncertainty.
G8 delivers advanced gas detection in a rugged, intrinsically safe device designed to perform in the most demanding environments.
With swappable gas sensor cartridges and coverage for virtually any gas your team may encounter, G8 provides reliable protection without slowing work down.
And it does so much more than detect gases.
Blackline G8 Multi-Gas combines real-time alerts, built-in radio communication, and direct-to-cloud data to keep workers safe while improving visibility, response, and productivity across every site.

Connected, Portable Gas Detection
Protect your people from gas exposures with a multi gas detector that’s built for how they work:
- Multi-Gas Monitoring capable of detecting up to 5 gases simultaneously from 20+ sensors, with optional pump cartridge to easily switch between pre-entry and continuous gas monitoring.
- Advanced 4G LTE cellular connectivity with auto-switching between major carriers for the best coverage.
- Swappable cartridges to adapt the same devices for different situational requirements (lone worker, single-gas, multi-gas, or multi-gas pump).
- Sensor readings to monitor the latest gas sensor data, spot elevated readings sooner and act faster.
- Configurable alert thresholds to align with site policies, regulatory requirements, and job-specific risk profiles.
- Field-optimized, industrial design with a bright display and quick-access flashlight for demanding work environments.

Multi-Gas Monitoring and Situational Awareness
Always know where your people are, what they’re facing, and when something changes—so you can respond quickly, confidently, and with the right information.
- Dual-band GPS/GNSS to pinpoint worker location, ensure quick incident response, and to show when and where every alarm, event and near-miss takes place.
- Real-time alerts from your deployed gas detection devices for time-weighted average (TWA), short-term exposure limit (STEL), high/low gas levels, bump tests, calibrations, falls, no-motion, missed check-ins, proximity-based events, and silent and emergency SOS.
- Direct-to-cloud data streaming from the field to Blackline Live for alert management and worksite visibility.
- 24/7 live monitoring through your own safety control center, Blackline’s in-house Safety Operations Center (SOC), or our global Alarm Receiving Center (ARC) partners.
Human-to-Human Communication
Workers can get help quickly and work together better with three ways to communicate, all integrated within their pesonal gas detection devices:
- Emergency Voice with a real person checking in when an alert is triggered and sending immediate help if needed.*
*connects to your own control room or Blackline’s 24/7 live monitoring service - Push-to-Talk works just like a two-way radio, using a dedicated button for clear audio and optional remote speaker mic (RSM) rivaling any industrial radio — so teams can coordinate quickly across sites.
- Text messaging for fast mass notifications, like evacuations or extreme weather events, and for workers to send custom or pre-set messages to monitoring personnel when help is needed.
Gas Detection Data and Analytics
Stay one step ahead of workplace hazards, simplify compliance, and keep work moving safely with gas detection equipment that allows your operations and workforce access to:
- Automated reporting that saves you time, shows if gas safety devices are being worn, turned on, and calibrated for easier compliance management.
- Historical trend data on gas leaks and exposures supports incident investigation, root cause analysis, and continuous improvement of gas safety practices.
- ZoneAwareTM to draw site-specific areas and understand who is in each zone, spot bottlenecks, and monitor movement to muster points.
