Workplace oxygen level monitoring is
important in Pharmaceutical Industry
onitoring oxygen levels within the workplace is
important because oxygen can be dangerous
Mif too much or too little is present. Oxygen has
approximately the same density as air, 1,354 kg/m3.
Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA)
defines the minimum safe concentration of oxygen as 19.5%,
and the maximum safe level as 23.5%.
Pharmaceutical industries use nitrogen gas in their
manufacturing process. Nitrogen is considered harmless
because it is non-toxic and largely inert. However, it can
displace oxygen in the air, reducing the percentage of oxygen
to below safe levels.
In simple terms, Nitrogen leakage is equal to Oxygen depletion,
and that can be dangerous as per the above table.
The key to deal with this problem is to install Gas Detectors
and Gas Monitor which can be configured with exhaust fans,
valves, or Hooter cum Flasher; so that whenever the gas
concentration goes beyond the safe limit, the critical area
not only gets ventilated but the control valves are also shut
ensuring there is no more leakage and it can also alert the
security guard by remote hooters.
