we provide maintenance and on site calibration services in Kuwait,Egypt and in specific locations abroad. We also propose faster and cheaper « return to workshop » periodical checkings. In order to simplify the process. A gas monitor calibration consists of setting air zero grade and sensitivity (span). It is required to perform it regularly for both portable gas detectors and fixed gas detection systems. Air zero grade setting The « air zero grade setting » of a sensor sets ambient air as reference value. It is therefore essential that this « reference air » is pure in order to avoid false measurements. In case of any doubt, it is recommended to use an « air zero grade » cylinder (synthetic air) rather than ambient air. This is all the more important for CO2 detectors (carbon dioxide) as it is naturally present in ambient air (about 400 ppm) and will distort CO2 measured values. For this gas, the « zero » shall be set with an « air zero grade » cylinder. Sensitivity setup (calibration) The sensitivity setting (gas detector calibration) shall ideally be done with a calibration gas cylinder of the targeted gas. The concentration has to be set between 20 and 80% of the measuring range while making sure of being able to activate every gas detectors alarm thresholds. In some cases there is no calibration gas cylinders (some gases are not available for sale). Thus using an interfering gas with precaution is therefore recommended. Gas detector calibration certificate A calibration certificate must be edited after any calibration of a gas detector. This certificate clearly indicates references and features of the device, each sensor measuring range, batch numbers and validity date of used cylinders. This calibration certificate must also contain the calibration date and its validity period (next calibration date). GazDetect provides calibration certificates for all monitoring devices: portable multi gas detectors, portable single gas detectors, and fixed gas monitors. BUMP TEST Performing a bump test is highly recommended in order to control the proper operation of any device between two calibrations or before entering confined spaces. This gas detector check is made by injecting a known concentration of gas to confirm the proper operation of the sensor (response time to the gas) and the alarms activation on the device. CALIBRATION GAS For maintenance, periodical checkings and calibration of gas detectors we offer a wide range of classic or customizable gaseous mixtures in lightweight disposable single use cylinders. Our available offer gathers a full range of gases from classic LEL binary mixtures up to complex and multiple mixtures used in laboratories with very low level concentrations. Gaseous mixtures are gravimetrically mixed under the requirements of the ISO6142 standard. They ensure accuracy, optimal stability and maximal shelf life.

Planning and Design Site Assessment: A qualified professional will assess the worksite to determine the most appropriate lifeline system type and layout. Factors like roof pitch, available anchor points, and number of workers will be considered. System Selection: Choosing the right type of lifeline system (horizontal, vertical, or leading edge) depends on the specific work area and application. Engineering Calculations: An engineer may be involved for complex installations to ensure the chosen system can support the anticipated weight and forces. Installation Preparation: The work area needs to be prepped to ensure a safe installation process. This may involve clearing the area and ensuring proper fall protection for the installers themselves. Anchor Point Installation: Strong and secure anchor points are essential for the lifeline system. These may involve drilling into the structure, using freestanding bases, or utilizing existing structural components. Installation methods will vary depending on the chosen anchor type. Lifeline Attachment: The lifeline cable or track is attached to the designated anchor points according to the manufacturer's specifications. Specific connectors and tensioning techniques are used to ensure a secure and functional system. Inspection and Documentation Post-installation Inspection: A qualified professional will thoroughly inspect the entire system to verify proper installation, component integrity, and functionality. Certification and Documentation: Upon successful inspection, certificates and user manuals for the lifeline system are provided. These documents are essential for maintenance and future inspections. Testing: Horizontal Lifeline Load Test Image of Horizontal lifeline load testOpens in a new window fallprotectionxs.com Horizontal lifeline load test A horizontal lifeline load test simulates the static weight a lifeline would experience in a fall arrest scenario. A predetermined weight, typically exceeding the expected working load by a safety factor (often 1.5 to 2 times), is applied to the lifeline for a set period. The lifeline and its anchorages are monitored for any signs of damage or deformation. Drop Test Image of Horizontal lifeline drop testOpens in a new window simplifiedsafety.com Horizontal lifeline drop test A drop test replicates the dynamic forces exerted on a lifeline during a fall. A weighted dummy is free-dropped a specific distance while connected to the lifeline with a lanyard. The test measures the arresting force of the system and ensures it remains within safe limits to prevent injuries to the worker. Tension Test Image of Horizontal lifeline tension testOpens in a new window horizontal-lifeline.com Horizontal lifeline tension test A tension test evaluates the lifeline's capacity to withstand a pulling force in the horizontal direction. A controlled force is gradually applied to the lifeline, and its strength and elongation are monitored. This test ensures the lifeline can resist forces exerted during angled falls or worker movement along the lifeline.
