CO2 Sensors And Monitors

Carbon dioxide is a unique and adaptable gas that is critical in many industries and applications. Though useful, high concentrations of CO2 can be hazardous and require gas monitoring for the safety of those who work around CO2.

Carbon dioxide sensors is an instrument for the measurement of carbon dioxide gas.CO2 sensors can be fixed or wall-mounted or portable/handheld CO2 detectors. Fixed CO2 sensors are designed to detect toxic levels of CO2 in ambient air. Portable Co2 Gas detectors help you monitor CO2 gas levels anywhere as it is designed for personal safety.

CO2 detectors are most commonly used to monitor indoor air quality. It detects CO2 emissions and alerts on unsafe levels of CO2 to ensure safety.
Most recently CO2 monitors are being used in schools and workplaces to identify poorly ventilated areas.

CO2 Sensors and Detectors FAQs

Respirator fit testing for all tight-fitting respirators (positive and negative pressure) is a mandatory part of AS/NZS 1715 Respiratory Protection Programs and mandated by all international respiratory protection programs. You must also get fit tested at least every 12 months to make sure the respirator still fits you.

A respirator fit test should be conducted:

  • On anyone who wears a tight-fitting respirator during the course of their normal work day
  • On anyone who wears a RPE to perform emergency response activities.
  • Prior to the initial use of a different size, style, model or make of respirator.
  • If there is a significant change in body weight, change to facial hair in the sealing area or dental changes.

The RESP-FIT website has a directory of accredited fit testers and/or Fit Test Service provider organisation. 

RESP-FIT has a formal accreditation process for individuals interesting in becoming a certified Respirator Fit Tester. This process can take a few months and once you are accredited your details can be listed on the RESP-FIT website. Although it is not a legal requirement for individuals seeking accreditation to have completed an approved RESP-FIT course, it is highly recommended as the course provides competency in the base theory knowledge that is assessed in the accreditation process.

OHD QuantiCheck Respirator Seal Check

QuantiCheck

The QuantiCheck is the first quantitative respirator user seal check device. The system not only checks for face seal but the whole mask for breaches and integrity issues that could cause leakage. The QuantiCheck has been designed to be able to quickly and easily perform a qualitative seal check each time a respirator is donned. The revolutionary technology features an app which easily shows a visible green light to indicate that the user has an adequate seal or a red light to indicate a seal beach.

Air-Met Scientific is an exclusive distributor for the OHD Fit Testing Range.
