Q: Gas Detectors & Confined Space Entry


A: Were you aware that OSHA requires the use of a (3) Three, gas monitor for confined space use?

Simply using an LEL/O2 monitor is no longer sufficient for OSHA Compliance.

OSHA requires testing for at least (1) One, toxic gas in a confined space. Click the link below for the OSHA rule on the proper use of gas detection for confined spaces, and go to: Paragraph(c)(5)(ii)(C) Permit-required confined spaces - 1910.146.
