Honeywell's popular Searchline Excel open-path Infrared gas detector, a staple on offshore
oil platforms around the globe, now has Bluetooth connectivity to speed up maintenance
and reduce downtime, thanks to an updated app for a smart junction box (model: OELD)
with local display that attaches to the detector.
"The search for a connector that can be tied off in multiple directions is over," said
Judd Perner, product development specialist at 3M Personal Safety Division. "Many
of the hooks on the market can be a nuisance to open where the operator's hand is
placed right in the opening creating a pain point. The Comfort Grip Connector opens
and closes easily and comes with a hand guard so knuckles are protected while making
a connection."
CleanSpace Technology, a global manufacturer of powered air purifying respiratory
protection, released its CleanSpace2 Power Unit Respirator Trial Kit designed to provide organizations in the construction industry with high efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter
protection to help meet the OSHA 29 CFR 1926.1153 Respirable Crystalline Silica in
Construction and OSHA 29 CFR 1910 General Industry regulations.
"As an industry, it is important we acknowledge and respect those who dedicated their life
to service," said Jeff Emery, director, marketing and product management with Scott Safety.
"With deep roots in the rescue industry and products that are made in the USA, we're
committed to supporting philanthropic organizations that share our passion for protecting
our country's firefighters and remembering our fallen heroes."
