Slaughterhouses

Gas detectors for slaughterhouses

Precise and safe gas detection effectively increases personal safety in slaughterhouses. Continuous gas monitoring at slaughterhouses is often a necessity or mandated due to the risk of the release of life-threatening gases in connection with the slaughtering and packaging of food.

Gas leaks can occur in several places in the processes at the slaughterhouse; during the slaughter itself, packing or logistics with gas-powered trucks. These gases pose a health risk if an accident occurs and they leak into the working environment. In the event that the ventilation in the slaughterhouse or packing house does not work optimally, these gases can quickly reach a concentration that is dangerous to human life.

At slaughterhouses, different types of gas are monitored, typically N (Nitrogen), CO2 (Carbon dioxide) and natural gas, but the need must always be assessed individually. The monitoring can also be used to control the ventilation, so that an energy saving can be achieved in power consumption, as the ventilation does not necessarily need to run at the same speed all the time.

The gas detectors continuously monitor any gas leaks and give an alarm when limit values are reached. Associated central units ensure automatic control of ventilation as well as flashing lights and horns for quick evacuation. You comply with all safety requirements, achieve valuable energy savings and increase workplace safety for you and your colleagues with gas detection equipment from GasDetect A/S.
