MONITOR. CONNECT. EMPOWER

Wagner asserts that you've probably heard confined space horror stories a million times. The person inside a confined space becomes unresponsive. The "hole watch" responsible for monitoring the work goes into the confined space to check on their partner and is overcome by the same deadly gas. According to OSHA, these would-be rescuers make up 60 percent of confined space fatalities. It's a tragic story of trying to help a co-worker based on gut reaction rather than proper safety protocols. While it's common for workers to perform atmospheric testing in confined spaces with handheld portable instruments, area monitors with peer-to-peer wireless connectivity can improve efficiency and safety of confined space operations, particularly those calling for extended, continuous monitoring. More and more companies are turning to gas detectors linked by peer-to-peer mesh networks because they can connect workers and share gas readings without costly infrastructure or the hassles of IT setup.
