Protection Kit

The SafePaq™ blood and virus protection kit provides

healthcare workers with

personal protection that

meets OSHA Standards

and CDC Guidelines for

blood and viral penetration

resistance. The SafePaq

presents a barrier against a

wide range of fluid and

viral threats and has appli-

cations in many settings,

such as hospitals, outpa-

tient surgery centers, clin-

ics, private physician practices, and immediate care cen-

ters. It includes a protective coverall, two pairs of nitrile

exam gloves, an N95 respirator and safety glasses.

Gas Analyzers

Titan industrial FTIR systems provide real-time, multi-com-

ponent extractive gas

phase analysis for appli-

cations including industri-

al hygiene, CEM,

process

optimization/control,

specialty gas QC, and

research. The spectrom-

eter is packaged with externally mounted, corrosion-

resistant gas cells and cell pathlengths range from 1 cm

to 60 meters. it operates from ambient to 240°C, allowing

moist sample streams to be analyzed without condensa-

tion. — MIDAC Corporation, 714/546-4322

Flock-Lined Gloves

DuraFlock™ gloves feature a fine layer of cotton on the

inside of the gloves. By absorbing moisture, the flock-lin-

ing keeps hands dry inside

the glove, improving the

grip, which is essential to

automotive technicians,

maintenance profession-

als, and lab workers.

Disposable, one-time use

DuraFlock™ gloves are

made from nitrile, a latex-

free alternative, have a thickness of 8 mil and are special-

ly formulated for comfort. — Microflex

Firewall Carts

Designed to meet OSHA compliance requirements for

safe storage of an oxygen cylinder

located next to a fuel gas cylinder,

these carts are equipped with firewalls

designed to prevent the spread of fire

and multi-cylinder explosion in the

event of a cylinder leak and ignition.

The firewall also restricts flame contact

with the oxygen cylinder, preventing it

from overheating which can cause

excess cylinder pressure and activation

of the safety. Firewalls are constructed

with Marinite I™, a one -hour rated fire

barrier material encased in steel panels and framing.

Environmental Monitor

The EVM- 3 provides real-time direct reading of partic-

late concentrations, along

with temperature and rel-

ative humidity measure

ments. The unit offers

quick selection of particu-

late settings PM2.5, PM4,

PM10, or TSP (within the

instrument’s measurement

range) without disassem-

bly. A built-in airsampling

pump assists in the collec-

tion of particulates while

the laserphotometer provides real-time measurement.

Airborne Particle Monitor

The AA-3500 is an advanced real-time light scattering aerosol monitor that utilizes infrared optical sensing technology to provide accurate and immediate display of

Airborne Particle concentrations in accordance with

NIOSH and is NIST traceable.

Applications include: HVAC integrity, office contaminants, manufacturing process dust, pollen dust, lead dust, construction dust, and evaluating levels of respiratory control. It

comes with Windows®-based

PC Software for storing data and generating management ready reports. — Environmental Devices Corp., 800/234-2589 , www.hazdust.com

IR Gas Sensor

The smartMODUL uses an infrared detection and measurement system, which is based on the property of gases to absorb infrared radiation at a specific wave-

length. This ensures that the sensor is virtually free of any cross-interference. SmartGAS offers all conventional types of interfaces and an external watchdog monitors the sensory system. — IMR Environmental Equipment Inc., 727/328-2818

Indoor Air Quality

The WolfPack Area Monitor is a fully modular system: plug in up to three Gray Wolf DirectSense® probes with up to six sensors installe _airspeed _probe, d per probe. Add a particle counter, _{P or}other sensors: up to 21 parameters may be monitored simultaneously. The same probes may be used for hand-held, walkthrough surveys, spot checking and spot logging. Available parameters include: TVOCs,

Carbon Dioxide, %RH, °C/°F,

Particulates, auto-zeroing

Differential Pressure and Air

Velocity. Up to 18 specific electrochemical gas sensors are also available.

Portable Gas Leak Detector

ATI’s C16 portable gas leak detector was designed to enable the user to pinpoint the location of a gas leak around gas storage areas, process equipment, piping runs, or in confined spaces prior to entry. This hand held unit contains an internal sample pump and an extension wand that draws the sample into any one of up to 33 different type smart gas sensors. Gas sensors are easily changed without the need of tools and can be stored in the included sensor keeper. Standard features include a large LCD
