Why Workers Need to Master the Art of Portable Gas Detector Operation

1. Why Workers Need to Master the Art of Portable Gas Detector Operation All confined space workers need to take more safety steps than the average worker. These workers enter spaces without adequate ventilation and can injure themselves within seconds if they’re not careful. The risk of injury is even higher in confined spaces containing gases or very little breathable air. Workers who cannot properly operate their gas detectors should not enter these spaces. Regularly testing confined space gas detectors is a key responsibility for every worker. Unfortunately, most confined space workers don’t receive special training on how to use their gas detectors. The Manufacturers Can’t Always Help There is no industry consensus on Portable Gas Detector Training requirements. Most manufacturers only have the resources to train their largest customers. So, most workers are on their own in learning these devices. “Bump Testing” is the process of checking the instrument's performance before each day’s use. However, this five-second process isn’t enough to keep workers safe. Workers must know how to troubleshoot on the spot in challenging environments. What if a worker realizes the device's readings are inaccurate but is miles from the manager of the monitors? These are the types of risks no worker should have to take. Instruments Gradually Lose Accuracy Investing in Confined Space EntrySafety should be every company’s priority. Especially because confined space gas detectors gradually lose their accuracy. These devices feature

2. several types of sensors. Over time, the accuracy starts to drift. Plus, sensors can stop working on exposure to certain substances. For these reasons and more, investing in gas detector training is vital for workers and their employers.
