Oxygen deficiencies, explosive atmospheres, and exposure to toxic gases and vapors injure or kill hundreds of workers every year during confined space entry procedures. The atmospheric conditions that ...
The key to accurate readings is calibration, says OSHA, and the agency notes the International Safety Equipment Association (ISEA) recommends, at a minimum, verification of sensor accuracy before each ...
Disposing of gas detection equipment can be deceptively complex for EHS managers, facility supervisors and maintenance personnel. Gas detectors contain hazardous materials (e.g., lead, mercury or ...
Quartz-enhanced photoacoustic spectroscopy (QEPAS) is a sensitive gas detection technique which requires frequent calibration and has a long response time. Here we report beat frequency (BF) QEPAS ...
A former NAIT engineering technology student is being honoured for creating a mobile app that expedites the calibration of fixed gas detectors. Adrianne Andal, a graduate of NAIT’s instrumentation ...
