xiv UK Focus Health & Safety Casella Joins Forces with RAE Systems
Casella CEL has signed a new distributorship agreement for RAE Systems world-renowned gas detection monitors, so expanding its extensive portfolio of innovative workplace noise, dust and vapours monitoring equipment.
RAEs products perfectly complement Casella CELs wide-ranging expertise in the field of gas detection with a full range of portable gas detectors for personal monitoring of toxic and flammable gas hazards. The range includes the popular and robust ToxiRAE single gas personal detector, said to have the fastest instrument response time on the market, the EntryRAE personal gas monitor for hazardous confined space entry, a 4-gas detector that includes a photoionisation detector (PID) to monitor volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and a range of bespoke PIDs, including the MiniRAE, an advanced handheld real-time VOC detector.
Casellas Market Manager Tim Turney commented: We are proud to announce this new distributorship deal. RAE is renowned as a leading global provider of intelligent gas detection systems and the addition of its products fits perfectly with CELs philosophy of providing products for noise and dust detection that allow health and safety professionals to monitor an employees exposure to compounds that may affect their long term health. The addition of the RAE range means we can now offer equipment to protect workers from the immediate safety risk posed by flammable and toxic hazards in the workplace. Casella CEL is also now an approved service centre for RAEs products, adding to its already comprehensive service capability.
Reader Reply Card no 275 Improved Gas Detection System
Stonegate Instruments (UK) has developed a new improved Gas Detection System for the air conditioning and refrigeration industry, which is already proving to be a popular addition to its product range.
The system has been carefully designed to detect a wide variety of popular refrigerants including CFCs, HCFCs and HFCs. It can accommodate up to 24 remote
refrigerant sensors and uses a compact central monitor unit with flexible wiring for easy installation. In addition, both audible and visual alerts for alarm conditions and sensors can be included.
The sensors are arranged in three zones of eight channels with four relay outputs for signalling an alarm, one for each zone. These relay outputs de-energise when any sensor in the corresponding zone signals an alarm and a main alarm relay will also de- energise if any sensor in any zone signals an alarm.

Carbon Dioxide Detectors Keep Workers Safe in Italian Winery
The Selvapiana winery in Italy’s Tuscany region is using CellarSafe
and Xgard fixed CO2 gas detectors from Crowcon (UK) to protect workers in the winery’s cellars. The units were installed by Parsec S.r.l., a company which works closely with Crowcon in the Italian wine industry.
CO2 is a by-product of the
fermentation process and, because it is heavier than air, it can spill out of fermenting tanks and sink to the winery floor, where it forms deadly, invisible pockets. Workers cleaning
grape skins out of fermenting tanks are also in danger, as any remaining CO2 can deplete oxygen in the tanks to dangerously low levels. In fact, CO2 is a hazard throughout the winemaking (and brewing) process – right through to packaging and

distribution. Long term exposure to as little 0.5% volume CO2 represents a toxic health hazard, while concentrations greater than 10% volume can lead to death. Its effective
monitoring is therefore absolutely essential.

At Selvapiana two CellarSafe CO2 detectors and one Xgard CO2 detector are installed in the winery’s cellars. The CellarSafe units provide two
levels of protection: firstly, if CO2 concentrations exceed a certain threshold, extractor fans are
automatically triggered; secondly, an 82dB alarm is triggered to warn workers to vacate the cellar immediately. The Xgard detector is linked to a Parsec SAEn5000 control unit that constantly
displays ambient CO2 levels on a computer screen in the control room.
