From raw material to the finished product: storage technology based on highest safety standards

Day and night shifts: Refineries are operated 24/7. In a continuous flow, required raw material is stored, processed, stored again and then transported. Pressure, cooling and atmospheric tanks are used for storage of different gases and liquids. Any critical changes in pressure or temperature, or even leaks during filling, may result in the escape of toxic or explosive substances. Because of this reliable and precise gas monitoring, detection and warning is required when it comes to the storage of most substances in order to protect personnel, the environment and equipment. Dräger stationary gas monitoring systems, equipped with electrochemical sensors, are usually positioned close to potential leakage points such as filling nozzles, bellows and diaphragms, flanges or compressor connections, and can be used to detect the escape of ammonia, amines, sulfur dioxide or chlorine at such an early stage that appropriate steps and countermeasures can be taken immediately.

Dräger´s product range of gas detection and measuring equipment offers the right solution and tool for almost every chemical in every application. The product portfolio also includes personal gas detectors carried by individuals as well as instruments and equipment for clearance measurements, workplace monitoring and for measurements of benzene and volatile organic compounds (VOCs).

Open path gas monitoring and warning systems can be used to continuously and reliably monitor fencelines to detect the drifting of gas leaks into unprotected areas. Dräger escape equipment enables personnel and staff to safely leave danger areas and get to secure zones in the event of sudden emissions.
