Hydrogen Operations - De-Risk and Future-Proof Your Worksites

Small Gas, Big Risks

Stay a step ahead of hydrogen leaks and exposure with devices that harness state-of-the-art sensor technology, scalable capabilities and unparalleled connectivity for rapid incident response.

Explosions: Highly combustible, the minimal amount of energy required to ignite a hydrogen-air mixture is much lower than that for other fuels. Need sensors that detect for low- and high-level exposure.
Confined Space Entries: Lighter than air, hydrogen is prone to accumulate at the top of high, closed-off spaces. Need pump cartridges for pre-entry checks and continuous monitoring.
Lone Workers: Odorless and colorless, hydrogen is undetectable without specialized equipment. Need connectivity, location technology and real-time alerts for fast incident response.

How Blackline Helps

Tools for Hydrogen Risk Mitigation

Best Sensor Portfolio

Broad selection of 20 gas sensors, including the leading-edge:

H2* sensor for monitoring of hydrogen in parts per million (PPM) to detect leaks.
MPS – LEL sensor for monitoring percentage lower explosive limit to mitigate explosions.
Configurable gas cartridges to customize your sensors for additional risks beyond H2.

*Only available in some regions.

Traditional infrared (IR) sensors used by many industries can’t detect hydrogen and catalytic bead sensors are not poison-immune. Blackline has a dedicated H2 sensor and our MPS-LEL sensor is poison-immune.

Customizable Gas Detection

Scalable devices and capabilities to address the unique demands of your operating environment.

Connected wearables

Area monitors

EXO 8

Powerful Internal Pump: G7 multi-gas’s powerful internal pump means you can switch between pre-entry and continuous monitoring modes at any time, so you can quickly adapt to the environment or evolving circumstances. Especially good for understanding the atmospheric conditions inside a confined space—from anywhere.

Boosted Lone Worker Protection

Monitoring personnel receive a cry for help, even when a lone worker can’t send it
Automated person-down safety alerts
• Falls
• No-motion
• Missed check-ins
Alerts time and geo-stamped
Received by monitoring personnel in under a minute

Emergency SOS - Manual patented emergency SOS latch on every device generates instant visible and audible alarm and alerts monitoring personnel.

Flexible Communication Options

Add-on communication features to tailor your solution to the situation and meet all your safety needs.

Two-way voice so first responders can connect directly with workers during an emergency
Text messaging means you can quickly and efficiently communicate with specific groups or entire sites
Push-To-Talk (using the device like a walkie-talkie) for easy communication between teams

All our devices are intrinsically safe for communications in any environment.

HOW CONNECTED SAFETY TECHNOLOGY STREAMLINES EVACUATION MANAGEMENT

While this document focuses on the oil and gas industry, evacuation management is a necessary element of safety planning for any industrial operation, including water and wastewater. It is critical to be prepared to quickly and safely evacuate personnel in the event of an emergency, as every second counts when lives are on the line.
