BW PERSONAL 4-GAS MONITOR TRAINING
The best equipment, correctly maintained, and people properly trained to use it, are an essential for safe operations here at Brieser Construction. Clear, well written procedures related to the task are also a necessary safety tool.
When you think about it, though, having the best tools and great procedures are useless unless we use them properly - and that comes down to behaviors.
At Brieser Construction, personal gas monitors are used to monitor personnel exposure to a number of different gases we come in contact at several of our job sites. They are also used as a warning device to inform the wearer when their exposure reaches prescribed limits. Regular calibration and challenge testing is essential to ensure that the monitors are functioning as designed
Detector Maintenance
If these devices are to protect the health and safety of the individuals carrying them as
well as building occupants depending on timely evacuation alarms, they MUST be
properly maintained.
- All personal Multigas detectors are to be tested and calibrated on the following
schedule:
- Bump tested daily or as indicated by the manufacturer (whichever is
less).
- Calibrated tested every 30 days. Testing is essential to ensure that the monitors are functioning as designed

- Base Station will display Calibrate LED
- Press BUMP/CAL to calibrate monitor
- Once finished, you will see the prompt saying calibration complete and a PASS – Let the machine turn off monitor thenyou are free to use the instrument. (Green Light will Turn On) se
- If the calibration FAILS – DO NOT U
- Restart the monitor & you are ready to use.
NOTE: It is very important to Bump monitor daily & Calibrate every 30 days. Not doing this function will cause instrument not to work properly. The sensors need the gas for exposure. This may prove costly & incur delays on the project.
