Detect up to five gases simultaneously

Responding to unknown hazardous situations requires the flexibility to change sensor configurations on the fly. Whether you need to test for hydrogen sulfide, methane and carbon dioxide for a confined space rescue, or levels of ammonia at a fertilizer plant, we’ve got you covered.

Select single-gas diffusion, multi-gas diffusion or multi-gas pump cartridges for any device, and from a range of sensor configurations to address the unique hazards of each or your potential incidents. Each device can be configured while travelling to the scene by swapping out the sensor cartridge – not the entire device. 

Choose from our broad portfolio of up to 20 gas sensors.

Unmatched durability

Most fire, hazmat and emergency responses are in unknown environments —which means you need technology as durable and hard-working as your team is. All our devices are built for extremes and put to work in the toughest conditions. Be prepared for any condition that may be encountered. 

Our EXO portable area gas monitor was recognized for its durability and drop-and-go deployment winning gold at INT Design’s Grand Prix Du Design Awards.

Your essential safety gear

All G7 wearables and EXO area gas monitors have layers of protection that are the critical lifeline to your team for the help they need during an emergency response.

  • Real-time visibility of each responders situation for the command center through GPS enable location tracking
  • Never lose insights into the response from devices being out of range (no repeaters, gateways or other tech required)
  • Combined perimeter and hot zone area monitoring
  • Ask about gamma radiation integration

Emergency responders are on the scene so now it’s time for the command center to take control.

G7s put you in command wherever you are needed. Visibility of real-time gas readings and responder positions can occur from anywhere and everywhere, even in remote locations. With complete connectivity, the command center is never out of touch.

Other products can communicate up to only two miles and need to use a MESH network. This means if there are tall obstruction factors, connectivity is compromised. No matter how remote the location, G7 personal gas detectors and EXO area monitors keep the entire team connected including on scene technical personnel. With live data streaming to the incident command post, informed decisions can be made for faster and safer response activities.

Data-driven insights for peak performance

Harness the industry’s most comprehensive reporting platform with Blackline Analytics to get deep insights into your response —from gas exposures to the reported compliance of bump tests and calibrations for every device.

You get 13 built-in essential reports to help you understand usage, manage compliance and investigate incidents. This leads to post-incident reporting capabilities allowing you to review actions taken and discover improvement opportunities for future responses.

The cloud-hosted portal gives multiple authorities, onsite and offsite, real-time, up-to-the-minute information. Commanders can then be free to do what they do best - take control of the situation to ensure the safety of response teams and the people and communities affected by the incident.

The flexible and future-proof solution you need

Blackline’s all-in one connected safety technology—with versatile and scalable solutions for the most at-risk situations your responders face—can offer the capabilities and customization you need to transform safety and efficiency for your Hazmat operation.

And, with add-on value through data analytics – all through a single partner – your Fire and Hazmat program can be more comprehensive, insightful, and easier-to-use and manage.

Blackline Safety’s all-in-one devices have the versatility to meet your needs for any response. Swappable sensor cartridges mean you can change your device's gas sensors on-the-fly to fit the chemical hazard at an incident.
