Many surfaces around the world are made with one primary material: Asphalt. Asphalt is a composite material derived from the fractional distillation of crude oil, creating a hazard to workers in its manufacturing environment. That hazard is a carcinogenic substance called benzene, which poses many risks even at low levels of exposure. Because of its harmful effects on humans, benzene detection in asphalt production is crucial.
Detectably Better N2O Gas Detectors for NHS Maternity Wards
IGD recently provided detectably better N2O gas detectors to the NHS. Issues of high-level N2O leakage across the service led to concern among safety management, especially due to its prevalence across the NHS. They were looking for a reliable and high-quality N2O gas detector solution to prevent these leaks and found that IGD was best suited to provide this. Read below to find out more about this project.
Chlorine Dioxide Gas Monitors for Water Treatment
Chlorine Dioxide is a popular water treatment solution in various industries. It has great disinfectant and oxidising qualities making it highly effective in water treatment. However, with this gas comes its dangers as it is highly toxic, making it a potential hazard for these industries. Implementing Chlorine Dioxide gas monitors are an efficient and effective way to mitigate these hazards. Do you use ClO2 in your industry? Do you know the hazards of this gas? Read on here to find out the answers to these questions.
Improving Hydrogen Generator Safety Using IGD’s World-Leading MK8 Pellistor
With hydrogen applications on the rise, hydrogen generator safety is now a more important consideration than ever before. Though the future of the hydrogen economy is uncertain, it is clear that ensuring future hydrogen boiler and hydrogen generator safety will depend on the widespread implementation of reliable gas detectors. IGD’s MK8 pellistor detector is the ideal flammable gas detector to ensure hydrogen generator safety, offering a long service life alongside unparalleled stability and poison resistance.
Ammmonia Gas Detectors for Refrigeration Plants
Large-scale refrigeration systems are an integral part of many industries, such as cold storage, petrochemical refining, and food processing. In such applications, Ammonia is the most common choice of refrigerant due to its effective physical properties and low freezing point, making it perfect for refrigeration uses. As ammonia is extremely dangerous to life and health at a concentration of 25ppm (8hrs) and 35ppm (15 minutes), it is critical for ammonia gas detectors to be used in such applications to maintain the safety of the plant and those in the vicinity.
Hydrogen Chloride Gas Detectors for a Cement Manufacturing Company
IGD were recently approached by a cement manufacturing company to implement Hydrogen Chloride gas detectors within their facility. Time was of the essence as they needed to begin the works on site shortly. IGD were able to meet the deadline and provide them with a detectably better solution. Our solution of the 750X and the TOC-635 PLUS met their requirements and provided them with a reliable gas safety system to ensure the safety of their team. Read on below to find out more.
10 Key Use Cases of the MGT Multi-Gas Detector
The SENKO MGT is one of our most popular multi gas detectors, capable of measuring concentrations of hydrogen sulphide 0-100ppm, oxygen, carbon monoxide and flammable gases. In this blog post, we’re looking at 10 critical use-cases of the MGT multi gas detector.
Where Do I Need to Use an Ozone Gas Monitor?
Ozone (O3) is classically used as an oxidant and disinfectant in a lot of industries, although has a variety of other uses elsewhere. Thus, although a unique gas, it can be found in a wide range of industries. And with Ozone being a highly toxic gas, it is important to utilise an Ozone gas monitor wherever possible. If you are unsure whether Ozone is present in your industry or you are just curious as to where Ozone is present, read the article below. We discuss all of the above and our detectably better Ozone gas monitor solutions to help in preventing Ozone poisoning.
Flammable Gas Detectors for Bus Garages
IGD and Coup are proud to release details for the recently won contract to upgrade a flammable gas detector system for DPO in Ostrava, Czech Republic. Our distributor and partnership with Coup meant we successfully won the international tender using our ground-breaking addressable systems. DPO provide public transport buses across the Czech Republic, all powered by CNG gas (Compressed Natural Gas). These buses are maintained and repaired across 3 different locations, thus a large supply of CNG gas detectors was needed. Read on to find out more about the application and the solution IGD and Coup was able to supply for DPO, including our world’s most poison resistant pellistor based flammable gas detector.
The 5 Most Common Industry Applications for the NEO PID
The NEO PID is the most advanced portable gas detector on the global market and is used to monitor volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The sensor can monitor over 700 VOC gas species and reliably detect down to parts per billion levels (ppb) and up to 15,000 parts per million (ppm). This blog post will explore five industry applications in which the NEO PID can be used and the benefits it provides.
