While fixed systems are the guardians of a facility, personnel moving through hazardous areas or entering confined spaces need a personal line of defense, a bubble of safety that accompanies them every step of the way. This is the mission of Crowcon’s range of portable gas detectors, a solution that we at Álava Ingenieros consider essential for any complete industrial safety program.
A portable detector is a life-saving device, and its design must reflect this critical function. Crowcon devices are designed to be the worker’s last line of defense. They are compact and lightweight so as not to interfere with tasks, yet extremely rugged to withstand drops, shocks and exposure to water and dust (high IP ratings).
When danger is detected, the detector reacts unmistakably with a trio of alarms: a powerful siren to overcome industrial noise, high-intensity LED lights visible from any angle and a strong vibration to alert even in the most adverse conditions. Operation, often with a single button, is simple and intuitive, eliminating any complexity in a stressful situation.
A Detector for Every Specific Need
Aware that not all risks are the same, Crowcon’s portable range offers:
- Mono-Gas Detectors: The ideal solution to protect against a known and specific risk. They are lightweight devices, often maintenance-free during their 2-year lifetime, perfect for gases such as carbon monoxide (CO), hydrogen sulfide (H2S) or oxygen deficiency (O2).
- Multigas Detectors: The ultimate tool for confined space entry and for operators facing multiple and unknown hazards. They typically monitor the four most common gases (LEL, O2, H2S, CO) and can include additional sensors for other hazards, offering comprehensive protection in a single device.
Managing a fleet of portable detectors can be a challenge. To ensure regulatory compliance and safety, each piece of equipment must be bump tested before each use. Crowcon radically simplifies this process with its automated calibration and test stations. These stations perform the checks, calibrate the sensors, load the devices and record all events automatically, ensuring that each detector is ready to protect and providing an effortless record of compliance.
With Crowcon’s technology and Alava’s advice, equipping your team with maximum personal safety is easier and more reliable than ever.
