The simple display shows the type of gas and the readings in ppm or vol%.  The display will also show status icons such as the battery and if the detector is wireless or not. There are three versions of the BW Solo - wireless, standard and lite.

The sensor and gas inlets are situated on the front of the detector and the white filter that protects it can be easily checked for contamination or dirt.  If you find that the filter is contaminated then spare parts can be purchased from Frontline Safety.
