Confined Space Monitors

Confined spaces can be extremely dangerous—low oxygen levels, combustible gases, and toxic substances are just a few of the threats a worker may encounter. That's why it's so important to use a confined space monitor.

Confined spaces are found in a range of industries and their hazards vary from location to location. Before entering a confined space, you need to understand the regulations, obtain permits, gear up, and test the atmosphere in the space.

Choosing a Confined Space Monitor

Even after the space has been checked and certified as safe, it’s safest to continuously monitor for atmospheric hazards because conditions can change within moments and leave workers unaware of danger. Continuous monitoring is simple with an area monitor like the Radius® BZ1, allowing you to eliminate the need to re-test the confined space and catch changes in environmental conditions before evacuation is necessary.

The nature of confined spaces makes communication challenging. You should equip entrants with a connected confined space monitor like the Ventis® Pro5 that automatically shares alarms and gas readings from within the confined space with peers and an attendant. This connectivity lets the team continue their work without relying on manual check-ins that disrupt productivity at best and at worst, can cost someone their life if timed incorrectly.
