Importance of Gas Detection in Industrial Workspaces
Gas detection is crucial for protecting personnel and company assets in industrial operations.
Identifying Invisible Threats
Many gases are colorless and odorless, making it virtually impossible to pick up on them using our senses of sight and smell alone. In the event of a gas leak, a workspace could quickly become dangerous without anyone knowing, exposing workers to toxic gas or even resulting in destructive fires or explosions. Being proactive about gas testing enables you to detect and address a leakage early on before it has the chance to become a serious risk to staff, equipment, and overall productivity.
Legal Liability
You must also mitigate the risk of the legal issues associated with workplace accidents, documenting your adherence to industry rules and safety regulations. With routine gas testing, you can maintain a safer and more compliant workplace and reduce the risk of workers’ compensation claims resulting from injuries. This will help you avoid the hefty fines your business could otherwise incur, as well.

How Our Inspection and Analysis Services Work
The following is a breakdown of what our industrial gas inspection and analysis services entail.
Initial Assessment
Our assessments begin with a thorough inspection of your facility. During this process, we’ll evaluate your existing detection equipment and look for any possible gas hazards within your space. This initial step informs the rest of our process moving forward.
Regular Maintenance Program
As part of our maintenance program, we’ll schedule inspections to ensure that your workspace aligns with industry standards. Routine maintenance will involve making any necessary adjustments or updates to your system, confirming proper calibration, and replacing sensors. We’ll document all service actions for your records.
Emergency Response
When emergencies arise, Jorgensen Company is here to assist you. We offer technical support, with rapid on-site service in the event of system failures.
