Hi all,

 

I am researching best practice for fixed gas detection in laboratories in the university setting.  There are certainly a number of variables to consider. Does anyone have guidelines/ standards/ decision-trees to establish whether detectors for flammable, oxygen-depleting and toxic gases are required in the laboratory?

 

Thanks in advance

Steve
