Gas Safety Innovation – Pipeline ME
With the ever increasing foot print of the Oil and Gas industry, special H2S protection measures need to be taken to ensure the safety of the workers and nearby populations. Our VP Middle East, Mike Gilbert, talks about innovations in gas detection, well ignition and vehicle gas protection systems that help ensure operations are run safely.
Safe and Sound – Airdrie Life
The article features Shayne McCallum, Vice President North America for United Safety. McCallum discusses our focus on Safety, our hiring drive on the lookout for new team members and our involvement with the local community.
Single Gas Clip (SGC)
Gas Clip Technologies’ Single Gas Clip is ideal for gas detection in extreme weather conditions.
Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA)
The Air-Pak 75i SCBA is a NIOSH-approved SCBA designed with durability, dependability and user-focus in mind.
Supplied Air Breathing Apparatus (SABA)
The Ska-Pak Plus Supplied Air Respirator features a Combination Type C positive pressure respirator with escape cylinder for entry into or escape from hazardous, confined space, or Immediately Dangerous to Life or Health (IDLH) situations.
Rig Rat III
Self-contained and intrinsically safe wireless, stand-alone, multi-point gas detector. It features unequaled versatility, with an extensive range of field configurations.
Multi Gas Clip (MGC)
Tests for the presence of combustible gases, H2S, CO, and O2, and has the longest battery life of any portable gas detector by a long shot.
Integrated Wireless Alarm Bar
United Safety uses the wireless alarm bar with an Integrated WirelessLink module to alert workers of critical alarm conditions in remote areas of a work site.
Emergency Escape Breathing Apparatus (EEBA)
ELSA Escape Respirator.
United Safety provides Scott Safety’s ELSA emergency escape-breathing device. Providing 5, 10 or 15 minutes of escape from toxic environments, even in atmospheres Immediate Dangerous to Life or Health (IDLH).
Breathing Air Delivery Systems for Cold Weather Applications
United Safety supported 10 projects within 4 industrial plants at peak cold weather temperatures in Canada. The challenge was to ensure a consistent source of breathing air supply for the end user and decrease work interruptions caused by breathing air refilling and hoarding/heating during cold weather. We proposed different configurations of “fill on the fly” breathing air supply that does not require hoarding/heating in cold weather, and positively impacted productivity and user confidence on equipment during winter projects.
Auto Well Ignition System – VulQan™ Brochure
When operating high pressure, sour wells, there is always a risk of uncontrolled sour gas (H2S) releases. The release has to be ignited before dispersing. That is why United Safety’s Innovations Team developed the VulQan™ auto well ignition system.
UltraRAE
This portable Handheld Benzene and Compound-Specific VOC Monitor is the most advanced Compound-Specific monitor on the market.
MGC Pump
This Multi Gas Clip (MGC) Pump is a hardworking, hand held portable gas detection meter.
MeshGuard
The battery-operated wireless MeshGuard gas detection monitor is a key building block of the MeshGuard intelligent network of connected sensors for gas detection in industrial safety applications.
Colorimetric Gas Detection Pump and Tubes
RAE Systems colorimetric gas detection tubes enable quick, on-the-spot measurement of a wide range of toxic and combustible gases and vapors.
Key Benefits
- More accurate than other comparable multigas tube-style detectors (+ /- 12.5% error instead of +/- 25% error potential in most other pumps).
- Extended ranges allow the safety hand to match the tube range to the current concentration more effectively.
- Wide variety of tubes for different gases, with extended ranges available within each tube.
- Simple and robust – no rubber baffles to leak.
