Fire Service and Emergency Response customers are one of the largest segments of the gas detection market. Using gas detection equipment is a critical part of their duties. But the way they use their instruments is different from industrial customers. During an emergency they face many unknowns. They may not know the details of the potential hazards until they arrive on the scene. They need to be prepared to deal with fuel spills, leaks, confined space accidents, fireground hazards, and a wide variety of specific toxic or explosive gases. They need to be experts in the use of portable atmospheric monitors and determining which instrument to use during a specific incident.
This webinar will focus on the typical types of incidents that require the use of real-time atmospheric monitors, the type of sensors and capabilities that are required, and NFPA guidelines and requirements for fire service users of gas detection equipment.
A major goal of the webinar is how to identify customer needs and provide better solutions. Asking better questions leads to better solutions for the customer. Understanding, choosing, testing, and using the correct portable gas detector is vital to the safety of fire service and emergency response personnel, as well as the lives of the people they serve and protect . This webinar provides an overview of these essential issues.
