Is the air inside your facility as safe as you think it is?

 

When assessing workplace health and safety, airborne contaminants are often among the most difficult hazards to identify. Gases and vapours may be present at low concentrations, intermittent emissions can be easily missed, and spot measurements only provide a snapshot in time.

Beacon Passive Gas Samplers offer a practical and cost-effective way to evaluate indoor air quality across a wide range of facilities, helping organisations better understand employee exposure and environmental conditions.

Simple, Reliable Air Monitoring

 

Unlike traditional active sampling systems that require pumps, power supplies and ongoing maintenance, Beacon Passive Gas Samplers operate independently. Their

Beacon Passive Sampler

compact design allows them to be deployed quickly throughout a facility, making them ideal for:

  • Manufacturing plants
  • Warehouses and storage facilities
  • Laboratories
  • Offices and commercial buildings
  • Educational institutions
  • Healthcare facilities
  • Industrial processing sites

Because no power source is required, samplers can be positioned wherever monitoring is needed, including hard-to-access locations.

Capture Real-World Exposure Conditions

 

One of the key advantages of passive sampling is the ability to monitor over extended periods. Rather than relying on a single spot measurement, Beacon samplers collect data continuously over days or weeks, providing a more representative picture of actual workplace conditions.

This approach can help identify:

  • Intermittent emission events
  • Ventilation performance issues
  • Seasonal or operational variations
  • Potential employee exposure risks
  • Areas requiring further investigation
Monitor a Wide Range of Gases

 

Beacon Passive Gas Samplers are available for monitoring numerous target gases, including:

  • Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs)
  • Nitrogen Dioxide (NO₂)
  • Sulphur Dioxide (SO₂)
  • Ozone (O₃)
  • Other workplace and environmental contaminants

The collected samples are analysed by an accredited laboratory, providing reliable data to support workplace health and environmental management programs.

Support Compliance and Risk Management

 

Indoor air quality can directly impact employee wellbeing, productivity and regulatory compliance. Data collected using Beacon Passive Gas Samplers can assist organisations with:

  • Occupational health assessments
  • Air quality investigations
  • Ventilation effectiveness studies
  • Baseline environmental monitoring
  • Ongoing compliance programs

HydroTerra supplies the full range of Beacon Passive Gas Samplers and can assist with sampler selection, deployment strategies and interpretation of results.
