Confined Spaces: Categorising the Hazards

Confined Spaces: Categorising the Hazards



In the construction and other industrial industries, employees might be asked to work in confined spaces from time to time. A confined space is defined as "any space that hinders the normal activities of a person who is entering, working in or leaving through it." Before you start working in a confined space, it is important that you categorise the potential hazards so that you can choose the right confined space equipment to keep you safe.

At SafetyLiftinGear we offer a range of high-quality confined space equipment to keep you safe, no matter what confined space hazard you may face. If the confined space hazard you’re facing falls into one of the following categories, we can help keep you safe!

Hazardous Atmosphere:

If you’ll be working in an atmosphere that’s potentially hazardous, we offer a range of Gas Detectors and Breathing Apparatus to protect you and your colleagues:

                           Gas Detector                             Breathing Apparatus                                   

Our Gas Detectors can detect up to four different gases (H2S, CO, O2, LEL) through the push of a single button, alerting you if the atmosphere you are working in becomes potentially hazardous.

In emergencies, our Confined Space Breathing Apparatus can be worn to provide the user with a continuous supply of clean, breathable air. Buy or hire this equipment depending on how often you think it will be required.
