Oxygen deficiency often occurs in enclosed spaces and can be triggered by various factors. Gas leaks from tanks or pipelines can displace oxygen rapidly. The decomposition of organic matter, emitting gases like carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide, can also create an oxygen-deficient environment. According to the Health and Safety Executive (HSE), confined spaces, even in laboratories, may pose risks, making the use of oxygen monitors essential.
Oxygen depletion alarm testing is crucial in various industries to ensure the safety of personnel and prevent potentially life-threatening situations.
Oxygen depletion sensors, connected to an alarm system, sound an alert when oxygen levels drop too low. Regular function testing and calibration are essential to maintaining the accuracy of these sensors.
Oxygen depletion sensors rely on calibration to maintain accuracy. The calibration process involves adjusting the sensor's settings to match a known concentration of oxygen, typically the normal atmospheric level (20.9 percent).
Regular function testing of oxygen depletion monitors involves exposing the sensors to a known concentration of oxygen using calibration gases. This verifies that the monitor is operating correctly and can accurately detect changes in oxygen levels.
Air Products' range includes a comprehensive portfolio of non-refillable canisters, ideal for providing the precise certified gas mixtures needed for the vital calibration and testing of oxygen depletion alarm equipment.
