MIRAN Gas Meter/Detector

Introduction Air monitoring data is useful for: *Assessing the health risks to the public and response workers. *Selecting personal protective equipment. *Delineating areas where protection is needed. *Determining actual or potential effects on the environment. *Selecting actions to mitigate the hazards safely and effectively.

MIRAN Gas Meter/Detector To be useful air monitoring instruments must be: *Portable and rugged. *Easy to operate. *Easy to operate. *Inherently safe. *Inherently safe. *Able to generate reliable and useful results. *Able to generate reliable and useful results.

MIRAN Gas Meter/Detector The response time, sensitivity, selectivity, accuracy and precision of an instrument are important in evaluating the reliability and usefulness of the data the instrument generates. The response time, sensitivity, selectivity, accuracy and precision of an instrument are important in evaluating the reliability and usefulness of the data the instrument generates.

MIRAN Gas Meter/Detector Limitations & Considerations Temperature Temperature Oxygen Levels Oxygen Levels Interfering Coumpounds Interfering Coumpounds  Organic Lead  Sulfur compounds  Silicone  Acid Gases

Toxic Atmosphere Monitors Toxic atmosphere monitoring is done to: *identify airborne concentrations that could pose a toxic risk to response workers and the public. *evaluate the need for and type of personal protective equipment. *set up work zones or areas where contaminants are or are not present.
