Read More >>Remote Natural Gas Detection Increases Safety for First Responders and Fire Fighters We are pleased to introduce the Gas Laser with highly advanced laser technology designed to detect natural gas with the aim of enhancing safety and improving detection for fire services, and first responders. Frequently fire personnel and first responders are called to natural…
Read More >>By: Bob Henderson, Contributor Manufacturers and regulatory agencies agree the safest and most conservative approach is to perform a functional bump test or calibration check by exposing your gas detector to gas before each day’s use. But instrument users still have questions. Oxygen deficiencies, explosive atmospheres, and exposure to toxic gases and vapors injure hundreds…
Read More >>By: Dr. Blaise Champagne, Contributorrrr The manufacturing of chips and other high-tech electronics has helped drive the electric vehicle (EV) revolution. Common gas hazards monitored in electronic production processes include toxic hydrides, such as arsine (AsH3) and stibine (SbH3). Batteries provide the energy storage to power EVs, making them a key technology underlying the revolution.…
Read More >>When it comes to keeping your employees safe from gas hazards, creating a reliable gas detection, maintenance and safety program might feel as daunting as climbing Mount Everest. If you have the right tools in place and are properly prepared, you’ll ascend the mountain successfully and with ease. But, if you don’t have the right…
Read More >>By: Del Williams, Contributor Detecting dangerous gases with versatile, advanced modular systems can speed compliance and construction project completion. Whether new or retrofit construction, monitoring hazardous gases in industrial plants that process pulp and paper, as well as at loading docks and receiving areas, is often crucial to safety, compliance and productivity. Exposure to potentially…
Read More >>By: Dave Wagner, Contributor We have all heard the famous line from the 1967 movie Cool Hand Luke: “What we’ve got here is a failure to communicate.” Poor communication can lead to unexpected and unwanted outcomes in many situations, but lack of communication, or “failure to communicate” during a confined space entry operation, can lead…
Read More >>Robust and quality-centric manufacturing processes ensure that products perform their designated function, be it site protection, area monitoring or personal protection, in a failsafe manner. At three highly-specified manufacturing sites in France, the UK and the US, Teledyne produces a market-wide range of gas and flame detection solutions to meet the requirements of customers across…
Read More >>Dealing with the actual or potential presence of dangerous gases and vapors in the workplace involves a complex series of decisions. Decisions related to “what to do” should be implemented by means of an integrated protection plan based on a hierarchy of priorities. The most desirable approach—when feasible—is to implement engineering controls and practices that…
Read More >>Gas monitoring integration adds critical, life-saving functionality to the Guardhat platform, expands partner ecosystem Guardhat, a pioneer of end-to-end connected worker solutions, announced today an integration with the GX-3R Pro gas detector from RKI Instruments, Inc. The number of lone workers in the United States has dramatically increased over the past two years, especially with the…
