Without emission controls, levels are well above IDLH
June 27, 2014
A study by researchers at the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), found that houseboats that use gasoline-powered generators without emission controls routinely emit carbon monoxide concentrations well above NIOSH’s immediately dangerous to life or health (IDLH) value of 1200 parts per million.
RAE Systems Inc. has introduced a wireless, portable, 4-gas pumped and diffusion gas monitor that will significantly enhance worker safety in industrial environments and better protect first responders.
The maintenance-free PS1 single-gas monitor is lightweight and easy to use with sensor options for monitoring hydrogen sulphide, oxygen, carbon monoxide or sulphur dioxide.
