Emergency response to gas leaks can be hesitant and not as responsive as required without the correct gas detection. Hazmat and Emergency Response Teams identify the presence of toxic chemicals and combustible materials before entering a potentially dangerous area.
First responders cannot tell in advance what specific chemical hazards to expect. This requires the need for broadband meters like the Tiger Handheld VOC Detector, which incorporates a photoionization detection (PID) sensor with over 700 response factors for volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
A personal detector such as the Blackline Connected Worker Device (G7C) simultaneously detects four gases. This cutting-edge monitor provides monitoring for carbon monoxide, hydrogen sulfide, combustible gases such as hydrogen and methane, and oxygen depletion. It also offers lone worker capabilities, which gives site leads real-time monitoring over an entire fleet of workers at one time, in one place.
For more specific gas and low-level gas detection, such as emergency response at a semiconductor fab, the portable ChemLogic® Detector (CLPX) detects adsorbate gases down to their lowest levels. The portable Electrochemical Detector (XPS-7) also provides ppm level detection for many toxins found in the high-tech industry.
