The BW Technology Air Monitor is used to perform initial site characterization of a spill to identify hazardous atmospheric conditions prior to initiating response actions. The Ultra 5 PID will allow for continual air monitoring to be performed during response actions to insure the safety of the responders.
Air monitors are calibrated on a regular business and prior to each field use. Calibration and bump testing is accomplished in Ketchikan before equipment is deployed.
