Wastewater treatment plant safety solutions
—Combustible gases, hazardous biosolids, volatile chemicals – these are some of the dangers workers encounter on a daily basis in wastewater treatment plants, sewer systems, tanks, and pipelines.
During the process of aerobic breakdown, especially when happening in enclosed buildings or structures, gas detection may be required for CO2 and O2 depletion. In the process of anaerobic breakdown wastewater treatment plants may require safety devices, such as gas detection for Methane (CH4 ) and Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S).
Gas measuring devices with fast responding sensors, personal protective equipment such as respiratory protection with adequate filters and protection glasses as well as appropriate escape devices may be needed. The right devices at the right time, at the right location can protect employees against upcoming hazards.
Fixed Gas Detection Solutions
—Whether you’re looking to protect individuals or the entire facility, you can trust Dräger for precise and reliable detection against CL, H2S, O3, CO and CO2 as well as a lack of oxygen.

Regard 7000 Gas & Fire Detection Control System
