Sick GMS800 extractive gas analyser
03 July, 2014The GMS800 extractive gas analyser can measure more than 60 different gas compounds. The device's modular design includes up to six analysing modules, one gas module, I/O modules and an operating unit.
SICK in-situ gas analysers
02 July, 2014SICK's in-situ gas analysers are suitable for direct installation in devices at the respective measurement site, eg, on the chimney. The analysers measure directly in the process under actual operating conditions. Characterised by their minimal maintenance requirements and short response times, they are available in two different versions.
Kemper Smartmaster mobile fume extraction unit
03 June, 2014The Kemper SmartMaster mobile fume extraction unit has been designed to provide all the features of larger fume extraction systems but in a compact, mobile, easy-to-use unit.
Optical gas imaging camera helps improve safety at petrochemical plant
09 April, 2014Many petrochemical plants handle invisible gaseous hydrocarbons. Most of these gases pose some sort of safety issue. They may be toxic or can cause health issues in case of long-term exposure. Others are highly flammable, explosive even, and most of them will have a negative impact on the environment if they enter the atmosphere in large quantities. That is why leak detection is of vital importance in these petrochemical plants.
Robot system for remote gas detection in technical facilities
28 March, 2014Detection of gas leaks in industrial facilities can not only be dangerous and time-consuming, it is also susceptible to human error and interpretation. In order to provide a safer, more efficient and more reliable detection solution, RoboGasInspector was conceived. The innovative robot system for remote detection and localisation of gas leaks was developed by a range of German companies and institutes, and uses a FLIR GF320 optical gas imaging camera.
Scott Safety Meridian universal fixed gas detection transmitter system
26 March, 2014The Scott Safety Meridian universal fixed gas detection transmitter system supports a full range of toxic and combustible gas sensors.
Detecting gas leaks with camera
12 February, 2014Optical gas imaging camera used for maintenance inspections and hydrocarbon leak detection in offshore oil and gas industry applications.
Novel gas-detection technology being commericialised
18 December, 2013Photonic Innovations aims to commercialise a novel gas-detection technology, developed at the University of Otago, that is claimed to virtually eliminate false alarms.
Air pollution still harming health across Europe
17 October, 2013Around 90% of city dwellers in the European Union (EU) are exposed to one of the most damaging air pollutants at levels deemed harmful to health by the World Health Organization (WHO). This result comes from the latest assessment of air quality in Europe, published by the European Environment Agency (EEA).
Michell Instruments MIC0021 Portable Calibration Rig (PCR)
30 July, 2013The Michell Instruments’ Portable Calibration Rig (PCR) is used for on-site calibrations of gas analysers.
Total cost of ownership considerations for managing a gas detection program
24 July, 2013Purchase decisions related to safety equipment such as gas detection are increasingly moving beyond the immediate needs of the safety manager. While purchase price and features such as durability, ease of use and product reliability remain vitally important to the safety community, organisations are increasingly focusing on total cost of ownership (TCO).
Ventis Slide-on Pump gas-detection instrument
22 May, 2013The Ventis Slide-on Pump is suitable for workers who primarily use the Ventis MX4 multigas detector for personal protection but occasionally require an instrument pump for confined space entries.
Dräger X-dock 5300/6300/6600 test and calibration station
13 May, 2013The Dräger X-dock series allows automatic bump testing and calibration at reduced test gas consumption and short test duration. At the same time, the networked database system provides extensive documentation and evaluation.
Research finds prototype generators emit less CO
22 April, 2013Portable electric generators retrofitted with off-the-shelf hardware by the University of Alabama (UA) emitted significantly lower levels of carbon monoxide (CO) exhaust, according to the results of tests conducted by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) for the US Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC).
Health and safety award for gas detection solution
28 March, 2013Industrial Scientific has announced that its gas detection as a service solution, known as iNet, was recognised as ‘Health & Safety Initiative of the Year’ at the Gulf Coast Oil & Gas Awards held in Texas last month.
