With the large amount of coal excavation taking place in China, the MA Mining approval is an essential certification for gas detection devices like the Impulse X4. This tough and robust portable unit is ideally suited to use in enclosed spaces such as coal excavation, and protects against flammable, Oxygen, Carbon Monoxide and Hydrogen Sulphide gas hazards.

 

Andy Haines, Sales Director (Industrial) for Asia Pacific, comments that the new approval means good news for companies operating coal mines in China. “As one of the World’s leading gas detection suppliers, our products are already used in a wide array of mines globally. The new approval means that we can now offer the same support to Chinese mining applications. Impulse X4 is particularly well-suited for use in mines as it combines functionality, affordability and ease-of-use with all the enhanced safety needed by a personal gas detection unit. The device uses SureCell^TM sensors which are ideally suited to performance in high-temperature, high-humidity environments and a system of audible, visual and vibration alarms ensures no potential hazard goes undetected. The Impulse X4 is ideal for use by those companies wanting advanced performance, reliability and ease-of-use without the high costs of long term maintenance.” 

 

The Impulse X4 has the capability to log data using a simple-to-fit memory card (the type you get in a digital camera). Events, gas data and the calibration history are all stored and the free software downloaded from our website enables you to graph or print reports at the press of a button. Convenience and the way users want to work is an important consideration. When clipped to the belt or harness, users may want the re-assurance of being able to view the display from different positions. But with many other units the display is upside down forcing the user to remove the unit to look at the display, perhaps creating a hazard. The Impulse X4 users can ‘flip’ the display at the press of a button for that added convenience and safety.
