Our customer commitment does not stop at product delivery but encompasses ongoing services. From custom-designed solutions to technical support, our gas and flame detection solutions are backed by expert judgment and premier technology that you can count on in an emergency.

Wastewater and potable water treatment facilities produce and use various toxic and explosive gases such as methane, hydrogen sulphide, ammonia, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, chlorine and ozone. In addition, in confined spaces, the increased formation of toxic gases and decreased concentration of oxygen make these areas particularly dangerous for workers.

The risk can be evaluated by measuring worker exposure to various pollutants present in the air in work areas. The measured concentrations are then compared to the eight-hour time-weighted averages for exposure (TWA) and recommended exposure limits for shorter time periods (less than 15 minutes).

Several technologies can be employed to detect gases present in water treatment facilities.

Teledyne Gas & Flame Detection's infrared sensor cells are not sensitive to poisons such as H2S and chlorinated solvents, as well as lasting longer than other models. Maintenance is reduced to one annual test. Energy consumption is half than that of catalytic detectors, and they are guaranteed for five years.

With more than a century of experience, Teledyne Gas & Flame Detection has been innovating and building expertise in gas detection in order to improve safety in the workplace. The industrial product line was designed to be used in the most extreme environments and is well-adapted for use in the water sector. Use is possible in areas with and without explosion hazard classifications, high protection index, stainless steel or polyester casing.

Our units have many functional features, including RS485 outputs, TCP/IP interfaces, programmable relays, backlit LCD displays and 24/7 data recording.

Biological treatment facilities are usually situated far from production facilities, and staff who work at and maintain these facilities often work alone. For complete safety, operators are equipped with portable gas detectors, which are maintained and tested regularly.

Teledyne Technologies Incorporated (Teledyne) has announced the successful completion of the previously announced acquisition by Teledyne of the gas and flame detection business of 3M for $230 million in cash.

With the acquisition of Detcon, Oldham, Simtronics, GMI and the Gas & Flame activity of Scott Safety, Teledyne has become one of the largest manufacturers of gas and flame detection products.
