Gas Detection for Comprehensive Site Protection
Many industries operate in hazardous environments, such as and gas, mining, refineries, utilities, shipping, construction, and more where exposure to harmful gases is common.
Detecting gas leaks early is critical because if left unresolved, those leaks can lead to injuries and property damage.
Flammable hydrocarbon gas leaks are invisible and often odorless, especially when operations take place outdoors. These gases can be toxic and highly combustible, so working with or around them can put workers in high-risk situations. If workers come in extensive contact with certain gas types and levels, they can suffer injuries affecting the eyes, lungs, central nervous system, or sometimes even death. The statistics show that gas leak incidents are not as rare as they may seem. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics indicated in 2019, there were 642 fatal occupational injuries from exposure to harmful substances or environments, and 99 fatalities from fires and explosions.
