Workplace safety

February 4, 2016 by Uniphos

gas-detector-tubesKeeping the industrial workplace safe is a major responsibility for business owners and industry managers. On a day-to-day basis, employees in chemical industries may get exposed to the dangers of poisonous gas or flammable products. A small accident can lead to a major disaster. To have the proper safety measurements in place, it is very important for the companies to work on the operational safety measures and have the latest gas detector tube and other safety equipment. 

What is a gas detector tube?

Gas detector tubes are specially designed tubes filled with chemical reagents that quickly react with the target gas in the environment by resulting in a chemical colorimetric stain. Each tube features a measurement scale that helps reading the results directly after each spot check. Some of the detector tubes systems also include an air sampling pump for easy usage.

The ranges of the gas detectors:

Each detector tube has a different level of concentration range. While some gas detector tubes have the ranges available in ppm, mg/l and Mg/m3, many detector tubes only measure in %. Gas detector tubes, however, have the flexibility to measure the tiniest and the highest concentration of the target gas, vapors and hazardous substance in the environment.

Benefits of using detector tubes:

  • Modern safety equipment and gas detector tubes are designed to offer the accurate reading at the shortest span of time. Plus, these tubes can reduce your operational expenses with a significant low cost per sampling. 
  • Gas detection and detector tubes will help keeping the industrial workplace safe by making the whole process of sampling and analysis a breeze. These tubes are for industrial usage only. Most of the time, inspectors use these tubes during spot sampling and on-site spot checks.
  • Unlike the electronic gas detectors, the detector tubes don’t rely on the calibration. Thanks to the latest technology used in designing the detector tubes that make the analysis so easy. Users can easily find the presence of any poisonous gas or hazardous substance in the environment by using the tubes at any point of time.
  • Furthermore, this is a cost effective solution for novice users too.
