Gas Detectors for the Fire Service Emergency response crews face two basic challenges when entering dangerous environments: • Is the air acceptable for normal, unprotected breathing? • Is the air safe from potential explosions? Portable gas detection equipment can help emergency response crews to meet these challenges. Gas detection needs are expanding. Increasingly, fire departments respond to situations where hazardous substances may be present and proper detection equipment is necessary. MSA provides equipment to meet almost any gas detection need. Home Calls Fire departments often respond...

Gas Detectors for the Fire Service The Importance of Calibration & Bump Testing It is vital to firefighter safety that portable gas detectors are maintained and calibrated properly. All sensors can eventually expire due to loss of sensitivity, slowed response time or both. Because of this, performance of a daily bump test is best practice because it is the only method by which the entire system: instrument, sensors, flow path, power source, alarms, and all electronics can be checked to ensure that it is functioning properly. That’s why most manufacturer instructions recommend a daily bump test...
