Shop Reliable Gas Detection Equipment

Gas detection equipment plays a critical role in protecting workers from hazardous gases and ensuring safe working environments where these hazards exist. Gas detection and monitoring is used to identify the presence of gases and alert workers, allowing them to take critical protective action.

URSafeRite’s range of gas detectors features advanced technology designed for high accuracy, dependability, rugged durability, and full compliance with safety standards.  Our best-in-market gas detectors measure single gas (e.g. CO, H2S or O2) or multi-gas with advanced technology including real-time monitoring and alarms, plus data-logging and calibration options.

Explore URSafeRite’s complete collection of confined space entry & gas detection equipment to find the perfect gas detection solutions for your specific work applications.

Portable Gas Detectors for On-the-Go Safety

Portable gas detectors are convenient go anywhere tools that provide advanced warnings of specific gases and gas leak detection.  They are worn by workers in areas susceptible to the presence of harmful gases. They are lightweight yet rugged, easy to use, and provide versatility across a wide range of industries and job types.  

With features such as real-time monitoring, alarms, and data-logging, portable gas detectors are an ideal tool for your essential PPE kit.  Selection of the best portable gas detector for your application depends on the work site environment and the specific gases required to be monitored.  Single gas detectors are most economical if one gas hazard only (e.g. CO or H2S) needs to be detected.  For more than one gas, a 2-gas or multi-gas detector is appropriate.

Fixed Gas Monitoring Systems for Continuous Protection

Fixed gas monitors are essential on high-risk sites where gas leak detection is required to provide continuous monitoring and reporting of ambient air quality.  For these sites, gas leaks present an ongoing risk, such as chemical plants, oil refineries, and heavy manufacturing facilities.  These worksites require fixed gas monitoring to meet compulsory regulatory compliance and risk reporting for their operations.

A key benefit of fixed gas monitoring systems is their integration with site facilities such as early warning alarms and active sensors placed at strategic locations to alert workers of gas hazards and to prevent incidents and accidents on high-risk sites.

Frequently Asked Questions

Gas detection equipment is designed to detect and measure the presence of harmful gases in the ambient air.  Depending on the equipment specifications, gases detected include CO – carbon monoxide; CH4 – methane; and H2S – hydrogen sulphide, plus combustible gases (such as propane or hydrogen).  For confined space worksites, gas detectors for O2 – oxygen are used to check if prevailing oxygen levels are dangerously low for human breathing.

It is recommended that gas detectors be calibrated at least annually, or more often depending on frequency of use and the working environments the equipment is exposed to.  The equipment manufacturer recommendations should be consulted for specific advice.

Some of the most important gas detector features to consider are: 

  • Electronic capability – sensitivity, accuracy, range, and data logging 

  • User display – screen size, indicators, and ease of operation

  • Robustness – rugged construction with built-in protection & drop resistance 

  • Alarms & notifications – visual & haptic, and the ability to be customisable for the job
