What does WANDI Korea do?

WANDI Korea is the official Korean distributor of WANDI environmental and gas measurement instruments, operated by RS Korea Co., Ltd. We provide sales, calibration, repair, installation, and technical support for portable and fixed multi-gas detectors and air quality monitoring systems, exporting to more than 20 countries with over 5,000 delivery records.

What products do you offer?

We supply portable multi-gas detectors (EDW100, EDW500, Gas Tiger series), fixed multi-gas detectors (FIX800, FIX900, FIX-AP), air quality monitoring systems (FIX5000), and gas leak detectors (GLD series) for industrial safety and environmental measurement.

Which gases can be measured?

Our instruments measure oxygen (O2), carbon monoxide (CO), hydrogen sulfide (H2S), combustible gases (EX), carbon dioxide (CO2), ammonia (NH3), and volatile organic compounds (VOC), among other hazardous and combustible gases found on industrial sites.

Do you provide calibration and repair services?

Yes. Beyond product sales, WANDI Korea provides in-house and national certified calibration, repair, installation, and ongoing technical support. Calibration and repair requests can be submitted through the quote/calibration/repair pages on our website.

How can I get a quote for a gas detector?

You can request a quote directly through the quote page on our website or through a nearby dealer. Let us know your application and target gases, and we will recommend a suitable model.

In which fields are the products used?

They are used across a wide range of industrial sites including laboratories, factories and plants, hospitals, military facilities, livestock and wastewater treatment, and construction sites for worker safety and environmental monitoring.

Hydrogen Chloride (HCl) Gas Hazards and WANDI EDW500 Explosion-Proof Portable Gas Detector Complete Guide

Hydrogen chloride (HCl) is a highly toxic corrosive gas generated in semiconductor etching, metal pickling, and PVC incineration. The WANDI EDW500, IECEx-certified for 5-gas simultaneous detection, provides early HCl leak detection from 0.5 ppm to protect workers.

What Is Hydrogen Chloride (HCl)? — The Corrosive Toxic Gas in Semiconductor and Chemical Processes

Hydrogen chloride (HCl) is a colorless, highly corrosive gas with a pungent odor. At high concentrations it produces visible white fumes (hydrochloric acid mist), but at low concentrations it is invisible. Major sources include ①semiconductor and LCD etching processes, ②thermal decomposition of PVC/plastics during incineration, ③chemical synthesis, and ④metal pickling in steel and plating factories.

HCl Health Effects by Concentration

Concentration (ppm)	Duration	Health Effects
1 ppm	8 hr TWA	Korean OSHA permissible limit
0.5–1 ppm	Short-term	Eye, nose, throat irritation onset
5 ppm	Short-term	Severe respiratory irritation, coughing, tearing
35 ppm	Short-term	Serious lung damage, pulmonary edema risk
50 ppm	30+ min	Pulmonary hemorrhage, respiratory failure, death risk
100 ppm	Immediate	IDLH — immediate life/health threat

How WANDI EDW500 Could Have Prevented HCl Accidents

10.5 ppm early warning: EDW500 alerts before HCl reaches irritation threshold, enabling immediate worker evacuation.
2IECEx Zone 0 certified: Safe for use in clean rooms and chemical plants with concurrent flammable gas atmospheres.
35-gas simultaneous detection: HCl + O₂ + EX + CO + H₂S monitored together for comprehensive process hazard coverage.
