Our GAO’s commercial hydrogen sulfide (H2S) gas detectors have the following functions:

• Gas Detection: The primary function of our commercial hydrogen sulfide (H2S) gas detectors is to detect the presence of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) gas in the surrounding environment. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a toxic gas with a distinctive odor of rotten eggs, but it is not always easily detectable by human senses, especially at low concentrations. The detector provides an early warning system to alert individuals to the presence of the gas.
• Measurement and Monitoring: Our commercial hydrogen sulfide (H2S) gas detectors are equipped with sensors that can measure the concentration of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) gas in the air. They provide real-time readings of the gas concentration, often displayed in parts per million (ppm) or other appropriate units. This allows individuals to assess the severity of the situation and take necessary precautions.
• Safety Precautions: GAO Tek’s commercial hydrogen sulfide (H2S) gas detectors are used in ensuring the safety of individuals working in industries or environments where hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is present, such as oil and gas, mining, wastewater treatment, and confined spaces. They help to prevent accidental exposure to prominent levels of hydrogen sulfide, which can cause respiratory issues, loss of consciousness, and even death.
• Data Logging and Analysis: GAO Tek’s commercial hydrogen sulfide (H2S) gas detectors have the capability to log and store data related to gas concentrations over time. This feature allows for the analysis of trends and helps in identifying potential sources or areas with high hydrogen sulfide (H2S) levels. It can also aid in compliance reporting and investigations after incidents.
• Calibration and Maintenance: Our commercial hydrogen sulfide (H2S) gas detectors often include features for calibration and maintenance. Regular calibration ensures the accuracy of the gas readings, while maintenance activities such as sensor replacement or cleaning help to maintain the device's functionality and reliability.

GAO Tek’s commercial hydrogen sulfide (H2S) gas detectors are rugged, versatile, and precision measurement instruments. They comply with applicable industry standards such as OSHA, IEC, ANSI, and CSA.

Our GAO’s commercial hydrogen sulfide (H2S) gas detectors help our customers comply with relevant U.S. government regulations such as:

• General Duty Clause - Section 5(a)(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) Act.
• Hazard Communication Standard (Haz Com) - 29 CFR 1910.1200.
• Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Standard - 29 CFR 1910.132.
• Confined Space Regulations - 29 CFR 1910.146.

Our GAO’s commercial hydrogen sulfide (H2S) gas detectors help our clients in complying with relevant Canadian government regulations such as:

• Canada Occupational Health and Safety Regulations (COHSR)
• Canadian Centre for Occupational Health and Safety (CCOHS) Guidelines
• Hazardous Products Regulations (HPR)
• Canadian Standards Association (CSA)

Our GAO’s commercial hydrogen sulfide (H2S) gas detectors have the following applications:

• Oil and Gas Industry: hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is frequently encountered in oil and gas exploration, production, refining, and transportation. GAO’s commercial hydrogen sulfide (H2S) gas detectors are used to monitor hydrogen sulfide (H2S) levels in drilling operations, wellheads, refineries, storage tanks, pipelines, and other areas where workers may be exposed to the gas.
• Mining and Mineral Processing: Mining operations, particularly in underground mines, can generate hydrogen sulfide (H2S) gas. GAO’s commercial hydrogen sulfide (H2S) gas detectors are utilized to monitor hydrogen sulfide (H2S) levels in mine shafts, tunnels, and other confined spaces, helping to ensure worker safety.
• Wastewater Treatment: GAO’s commercial hydrogen sulfide (H2S) gas detectors are a byproduct of decomposing organic matter in sewage and wastewater treatment facilities. Detectors are employed to monitor hydrogen sulfide (H2S) levels in various areas of these facilities, including collection systems, pump stations, digesters, and treatment tanks.
• Pulp and Paper Industry: Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) can be released during the pulping process in paper mills. GAO’s commercial hydrogen sulfide (H2S) gas detectors are utilized to monitor hydrogen sulfide (H2S) levels in various areas of the mill, including pulp storage, wastewater treatment, and recovery boilers.
• Agriculture and Livestock Facilities: In agricultural settings such as livestock farms, manure pits, and silos, the decomposition of organic matter can generate hydrogen sulfide (H2S). GAO’s commercial hydrogen sulfide (H2S) gas detectors are used to monitor hydrogen sulfide (H2S) levels in these environments to protect workers and animals.

Our GAO Tek’s commercial hydrogen sulfide (H2S) gas detectors can be shipped overnight within the continental U.S. and Canada, and can be shipped globally.
