Close observance to levels of gases and vapors in hazardous environments can greatly reduce the risks involved for those working in the area. If gas levels go unchecked there are a variety of problems that can arise. These include everything from feelings of sickness and nausea to catastrophic explosions.

At Orr Safety Corporation, we can help you identify and control gas-related dangers in the workplace. Along with protective gear and respiratory apparatuses, we offer a variety of gas monitors and detectors. You can find gas detector tubes designed to register levels of carbon dioxide or ammonia from 300 to 1,500 ppm. Our Gastec standard tubes are equipped with calibration scales that allow you to easily read the concentrations of the gaseous or vaporous substances you are monitoring.

The tube detector pump allows you to get precise measurements every time you use it. When using the pump, you will not come away with partial readings as is often the problem with many gas monitors. It is lightweight and durable, and its easy-to-pull handle and one-stroke piston action make it quite simple to use. The detector pump is field tested, and it has proven itself to be effective in a variety of environments.

Using gas monitors properly and maintaining safe levels in the workplace is not something that should be taken lightly, and it is not something that can be done by just anybody. At Orr Safety Corporation, we offer a series of training programs where you can learn how to operate the tools and equipment involved in gas monitoring and other safety systems.
