Employees need to be protected from explosive atmospheres and toxic or carcinogenic concentrations. For example, inert gases such as nitrogen can displace oxygen in some process steps. Or flammable gases from electrolyte solutions like DMC or EC can build explosive concentrations. In addition, dedicated personal air monitoring devices warn your staff of dangers to health and safety to achieve our shared goal of "Vision Zero".

VOC concentration needs to be monitored carefully to avoid adverse health effects. Regular spot measurements with innovative analysis solutions give you precise results right on site. Such as the selective PID (Photo ionisation detector) gas measurement device that shows laboratory quality results of VOC concentrations (ppm/ppb) and provides selective detection of electrolytes (DEC, DMC, EC). Another quick and easy solution is Dräger Tubes which measure solvents like NMP specifically and precisely.

Sometimes it is unavoidable for workers to be exposed to potentially hazardous substances, for example, toxic VOCs from solvents, such as DMC, NMP or nanoparticles. This is the time for Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). Depending on the concentration and necessary protection level, Powered Air Purifying Respirators, masks with dedicated filters, or FFPs protect your workers even in hazardous areas.

In a fire, highly toxic substances like HF and HCN can be released, and employees might need to escape fire and smoke. Therefore, first responders must be prepared for such an emergency and have access to dedicated gas detection devices, thermal imaging cameras to localise fire sources and adequate protective equipment.
