Continuous measurement of produced gas.
Through continuous monitoring, even in sample form, we can measure
that the produced gas is kept within the limits that are set.
The need may be, for example, to control
hydrogen sulfide in natural gas or methane content in the production
of bio- or sewage gases.
Avoiding unnecessarily long production
cuts
Early leakage warning is a prerequisite for
good preventive maintenance.
Early leakage detection means that repairs
can be scheduled and not as an unpleasant surprise with production
losses and even loss of sales.

Estimated cost savings
The estimated cost savings are (unfortunately) based on a possible
location of an accident or disaster, which is subject to a cost
estimate.
Personal injuries
Personal injuries are examples of estimated cost savings that can be
difficult to calculate.
Explosion, oxygen deficiency and dangerous
concentrations of toxic gases can lead to personal injuries.
In addition to serious personal consequences
for all involved, the injuries cost companies a
great
deal of money (insurance claims,
recruitment costs, etc.)
Below you will find
several examples of the estimated cost savings that should be easy
to calculate:
Property Damage
Uncontrolled combustion - read explosion - of flammable gases may
lead to extensive property damage.
Major releases of ammonia can damage food in
refrigerated warehouses.
Production Stops
A gas monitoring system which activates an alarm will reduce or
eliminate production stops since the problems are detected at a very
early stage.
Without a gas monotoring system, leakages are
sometimes not discovered until the damage has occurred which may
lead to huge costs and income losses.
Staff
A poor and unsafe working environment leads to a
higher staff turnover which increases
recruitment costs
and staff training costs.
Insurance premiums
A high level of safety in hazardous activities can lead to better
insurance conditions.
Fines and imprisonment
Ensuring that you stay within the laws and regulations undoubtedly
reduces the risk of fines.
This thinking is now a reality in
environmentally hazardous activities with strict regulatory
requirements.
In addition to savings in the above
categories a well marketed security policy, which includes gas
monotoring, will create goodwill towards employees, authorities and
local residents as well as increased security of supply for the
company´s customers.
