EasyGas: the portable gas detector that protects you in confined environments

19 December 2024


Safety in confined environments is not an option; it is a vital necessity. The statistics speak for themselves: 56% of accidents at work occur in enclosed spaces such as mines, wells, tanks, pipelines, tunnels, cisterns or underground facilities. In these environments, where the atmosphere can change rapidly and unpredictably, a reliable portable gas detector becomes an indispensable tool to protect your life and that of your colleagues, considering that asphyxiation and explosions are among the main risk factors (52%, INAIL source).

EasyGas by Tecnocontrol, newborn in the family of portable gas detectors, represents the evolution of personal safety in the detection of toxic and asphyxiating gases. This state-of-the-art tool combines advanced technology and ease of use, offering comprehensive protection in compliance with the latest safety regulations.

Portable Gas Detector: Regulatory Compliance as a Safety Guarantee

Legislative Decree 81/2008 and Presidential Decree 177/2011 establish strict requirements for the protection of workers in confined environments. EasyGas not only fully meets these requirements but surpasses them thanks to its international certifications. ATEX (Ex II 1G Ex ia IIC T4 Ga), KCs, IECEX and NRTL certifications guarantee maximum safety in enclosed spaces, offering complete protection in any operating condition.

Finally, from 14 November 2024, the new UNI 11958:2024 standard is in force, which establishes the criteria and procedures to identify and classify confined places or suspected pollution.

Portable detectors: advanced technology at the service of safety

EasyGas stands out for its versatility, being available in as many as 16 models for the detection of as many different gases, ensuring complete coverage of potential risks, even in the event of leaks and hidden leaks. The IP68 degree of protection ensures maximum resistance in all environmental conditions, while the weight of only 105 grams (less than a smartphone) makes it a practical tool to always carry with you, without compromising comfort and mobility during operations.

The 1.6-inch display offers a clear and immediate view of the data, allowing for quick reading even in low-light conditions. The high-performance sensor's precision and advanced signal processing ensure reliable, real-time detections, providing accurate data when it really matters.

Small, but extremely efficient: EasyGas has numerous user options, ranging from resetting peak values to adjusting alarm thresholds and calibration.

Portable gas detectors: life-saving innovation

Safety in confined environments requires effective and immediate alarm systems. EasyGas responds to this need with a triple alert system: visual, sound and vibration. This feature is particularly valuable in noisy environments where operators wear hearing protectors.

Professional portable detector: active prevention against real risks

Accidents in confined spaces often result from the sudden accumulation of gases, both in low and high areas of the environment. The two-year battery life of the EasyGas portable gas detector ensures constant and reliable monitoring, eliminating the risk of sudden interruptions in the operation of the instrument.

Statistics show that most accidents are caused by inadequate risk assessment. The use of a professional portable detector such as EasyGas is therefore not only a regulatory obligation, but a conscious choice to protect your life and that of your colleagues.

Investing in security: a measurable economic advantage

Investing in a portable gas detector such as EasyGas represents a strategic choice not only for safety, but also from an economic point of view.

Have you considered how much an accident in a confined environment can cost your company, between operational shutdowns, administrative sanctions, legal disputes, increased insurance premiums and reputational damage to the company?

In comparison, the adoption of an individual protection device such as EasyGas represents a limited investment that, thanks to its guaranteed two-year duration and the absence of significant maintenance costs, translates into concrete savings. The prevention of a single incident is sufficient to repay the initial investment amply.]

Conclusion

EasyGas is not a simple working tool, but a real life-saving device. In a context where security cannot be left to chance, it is the professional choice for those who work in confined environments. The combination of advanced technology, ease of use and regulatory compliance makes it an indispensable ally for every professional who puts safety first.

It stands out for its state-of-the-art technical features:

  • detection of 16 different types of gases (depending on the model);
  • IP68 degree of protection for maximum environmental resistance;
  • ultra-light weight of only 105 grams for maximum operating comfort;
  • 1.6-inch display for clear and immediate reading;
