AreaRAE Plus — wireless area station for multi-gas and VOC detection
The AreaRAE Plus is a wireless, portable area monitor from Honeywell for simultaneous detection of toxic and combustible gases, volatile organic compounds (VOC) and meteorological parameters that affect how a gas cloud spreads. It supports up to 7 sensors (up to six interchangeable 4R+ plus a 7R+ PID) chosen from over 20 types. It warns with local audible and visual alarms, and through Honeywell remote-monitoring software it relays real-time readings to a safe location.
The AreaRAE Plus is a wireless, portable Honeywell area monitor for simultaneous detection of toxic and combustible gases, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and meteorological parameters affecting how a gas cloud disperses. It supports up to 7 sensors (up to six interchangeable 4R+ plus a PID 7R+) chosen from more than 20 types. It warns with local audible and visual alarms, and through Honeywell remote monitoring software it transmits real-time readings to a safe location.
Note: AreaRAE Plus vs AreaRAE Pro: the Plus measures VOCs in ppm and does not detect radiation — the industrial version (shutdowns, fence line). The Pro measures VOCs in ppb and has an optional gamma sensor — for hazmat/CBRN tasks.
Key features
- Up to 7 sensors: up to 6x 4R+ (toxic and combustible gases) + photoionization PID 7R+.
- More than 20 interchangeable sensors — flexible configuration for the task.
- VOC measurement in ppm (PID 7R+, 10.6 eV) with temperature and humidity compensation.
- Local audible (108 dB) and visual alarms + remote map-based viewing.
- Optional RAEMet weather station: wind, direction, temperature, humidity (ALOHA).
- Wireless range up to 3 km; long-range radio + mesh; GPS as standard.
- Operating life up to ~20 h; Li-ion battery or alkaline-battery adapter.
- Remote monitoring (Honeywell software, Sotera management).

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
How does the AreaRAE Plus differ from the AreaRAE Pro?
The AreaRAE Plus measures volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in ppm and does not detect radiation — it is the industrial version for maintenance shutdowns and fence-line monitoring. The AreaRAE Pro measures VOCs in ppb and can have an optional gamma sensor — for hazmat and CBRN tasks.
What is the AreaRAE Plus used for?
It is a wireless area monitor for simultaneous monitoring of toxic and combustible gases and VOCs over a larger area — including fence-line monitoring, securing maintenance shutdowns, confined-space clearing and environmental work.
Does the AreaRAE Plus transmit data wirelessly?
Yes. Readings reach Honeywell remote monitoring software in real time (map-based viewing). The radio range is up to 3 km on the 900 MHz band; the device also has local audible and visual alarms.
Which sensors does the AreaRAE Plus support?
Up to 7 sensors: up to six interchangeable 4R+ (toxic and combustible gases) and a photoionization PID 7R+ for VOCs. You choose from more than 20 sensor types and reconfigure as needed.
