2ABOUT
- Whatever the type of gas detector cells
(catalytic, electrochemical, infrared or
photoionization cells), it is essential and
necessary to periodically check the correct
functioning of these by regular calibrations
(every semester or all The years after the
manufacturers) and tests of good functioning
between them. - GazDetect offers these services ( calibration of
the gas detector or gas tests on site ) in France
and Europe or in the workshop - Calibrating the Gas Detector
- The calibration of the gas detector (or
calibration) of a gas detector consists of the
setting of zero and sensitivity (span). - Adjusting the zero
- Resetting configures the cell so that the ambient
air is used as a reference value , it is
therefore imperative that this "reference" air be
perfectly "pure" so as not to distort the
measurements. In case of doubt, a "zero grade
air" standard gas bottle should be preferred
rather than a zero zero setting in the open air. - This is all the more important for CO2 detectors
(carbon dioxide) because it is naturally present
in the ambient air (about 400 ppm) and will
therefore distort the measured values ??of CO2 - Adjusting the sensitivity (or calibration)
- The sensitivity adjustment (calibration of the
gas detector) is ideally done with a standard gas
cylinder of the gas to be measured with a
concentration of between 20 and 80 of the
measuring range, taking care to be able to
trigger all the thresholds of Alarm of the gas
detector. - In some cases where there are no standard gas
cylinders (all gases not available for sale) to
calibrate the gas detector, an interfering gas
may be used with all the necessary precautions.
3- ON-SITE MAINTENANCE AND CALIBRATION
- The so-called "fixed" gas detection systems are
composed of a fixed gas detector (also called a
gas sensor) connected to a gas detection unit.
The latter is also connected to sound and / or
light horns and to a device for stopping the gas
line (gas safety valves or mechanical
ventilation). - Installation of on-site gas detection equipment
- From analysis runs your gas detection
installation to site implementation, GazDetect
offers you to fully manage your project.
Configurations and settings of gas detection
units according to your needs, training in use,
periodic checks, calibration or on-site
troubleshooting are our strengths. - We work primarily in partnership with Oldham and
Honeywell Analytics and rely on their extensive
network of traveling technicians to ensure
competency, proximity and speed. - On-site maintenance and calibration of fixed gas
detectors - In addition to one-off interventions, we also
offer maintenance contracts for on-site
maintenance and calibration of your fixed gas
detectors, thus ensuring absolute peace of the
gas detection station. - GazDetect is also the realization of cabinet or
electrical cabinet as well as any gas work on
site such as gas purges, gas line establishment,
installation of gas safety solenoid valves, or
any other Works on gas line. - Our strong points
- Expertise and know-how in the field of recognized
gas detection. - A wide network of partners both in France and
abroad. - The development of custom made electrical
cabinets and gas line. - Turnkey solutions.
- Maintenance and calibration of your fixed gas
detection devices with calibration certificate.
4- Why Rent Portable Gas Detectors?
- For occasional or specific needs, the rental of
portable gas detectors is often a relevant
solution no investments in new appliances, no
periodic maintenance or checking, no return of
devices for calibration or repair. The budget for
gas detection is therefore completely frozen. - Our portable gas detector leasing service quickly
delivers all the appliance demands (portable
monogas detectors, portable multi- gas detectors,
gas detection beacons as well as calibration
stations for calibrations and gas tests before
use) To a large number of devices available on
stock and an efficient logistic service that
delivers within 24 to 48 hours. - Advantages of renting portable gas detectors
- Immediate availability our large fleet of
equipment allows us to respond very quickly to
all requests. - Two formulas are available the weekly rental and
the monthly rental . These two formulas help to
meet the most specific needs. The gas detection
budget comes down to the chosen rental formula,
avoiding unpleasant surprises. - Long-term rental over one or more years with the
iNet solution, thus eliminating the need for
periodic checks, calibrations and purchases of
standard gas cylinders (see the iNet Solution
page ) - Ready-to-use equipment all of our portable gas
detectors or gas detection beacons are supplied
ready-to-use with a user manual in French and the
up-to-date calibration certificate covering the
entire life of d 'use. - Allows us to become familiar with our range of
products before a possible purchase or to meet
specific needs, such as technical stops for
example.
5Maintenance of portable gas detectors and
calibrations
The maintenance of portable gas detectors is
essential to ensure the accuracy of measurements
of gas concentrations over the long term.
According to personal protective equipment (PPE),
calibration is performed every six months (every
180 days) or annually. The "Maintenance
Included" solution is a simple and economical
concept, which consists of providing maintenance
for portable gas detectors for two years when
purchased. This is an "all inclusive" version
suitable for gas detection. This service is
available as follows Periodic checks every 180
days (verification of correct functioning of
parts and calibration of measuring cells) with
updated calibration certificates. The possible
recalibrations of the measuring cells in case of
saturation or other problems. The loan of an
equivalent device in case of prolonged
immobilisation of the detector of portable gas in
our premises due to a repair. The shipping costs
are included for the return of the device. The
gas detection budget is frozen for two years,
there is no nasty surprise! Replacement of
the cells is in addition, but you do not pay
labor for replacement and calibration of the gas
detector (only the price of the measuring
cell). After two years, it is possible to renew
your maintenance contract for two more years (and
so on) at almost the same cost. This service is
applicable to our wide range of portable gas
detectors, whether monogas or multigas (excluding
disposable gas detectors and gas detection
beacons). It allows you to control and
significantly reduce your gas detection budget
over the years.
6CHARACTERISTICS AND GAS PROPERTIES
Information on the physical and chemical
properties of a gas and its specific
characteristics is the first protection to limit
the hazards of workers working in hazardous
areas. A simple and intuitive database Developed
by Gaz Detect , gazfinder.com is a dynamic web
interface that allows you to find the main
characteristics and specific properties of a gas
in a single click . Available from any device
(computer, tablet or even via your smartphone),
this database, listing nearly 1200 gases, meets
the needs of a large number of professionals and
sectors of activity. You simply have to type the
name of a gas (whether it be its French or
international denomination) Gas properties in
one click! It is also possible to find a gas on
GazFinder using its formula, CAS (unique Chemical
Abstracts Service databank registration
number), EINECS (European Inventory of Existing
Commercial Chemical Substances) A synonym ! The
system will then retrieve the corresponding
card. The latter provides gas properties as well
as physical and chemical characteristics such as
limit and average exposure values ??(ELV and
VME), upper and lower limit values ??for
explosions in air (LEL and LES), But also the
specificities of the gas in question (toxic,
explosive, asphyxiant, harmful and / or
corrosive). The interactive database indicates
the gas detection means (fixed and / or portable
gas detectors) as well as the respiratory
protection equipment needed to protect themselves
(gas masks with the appropriate gas mask filter
and / Or insulating breathing apparatus). Finally,
GazFinder includes information on hazardous
substances with the risk phases standards for
respiratory protection filters and specific
filters, volatile organic compounds, measurements
and detection of rare gases. Do not hesitate to
visit GazFinder .
