Gas Detection Q&A - For Your Safety Environments
Built-in advanced gas detector sensor and sound & light alarm to ensure precise and safe gas detection in hazardous applications.
Q: What is a dangerously low Oxygen level?
A: A dangerously low oxygen level, also known as hypoxia, occurs when the concentration of Oxygen in the air falls below a safe threshold for human health. Typically, normal atmospheric O2 levels are around 20.9%, and levels below 19.5% are considered unsafe. Prolonged exposure to Oxygen concentrations below this threshold can lead to symptoms like confusion, shortness of breath, rapid heart rate, and, in severe cases, loss of consciousness or even death.
To ensure safety in environments where oxygen levels need monitoring, GasDog offers two reliable options: a portable O2 gas detector and a fixed O2 gas detector. GasDog portable O2 gas detector is a handheld device designed for on-the-go use. It provides real-time Oxygen concentration readings, sound & light alarm to alert you if Oxygen levels drop dangerously low. It's ideal for individuals working in confined spaces, first responders, or anyone needing to monitor Oxygen levels in various locations. A fixed O2 gas detector is designed for continuous monitoring in fixed locations, such as industrial facilities or laboratories. It offers constant surveillance of Oxygen levels, remote monitoring capabilities, and can trigger alarms when O2 concentrations reach critical levels, ensuring immediate action can be taken to prevent accidents.
