How to Save Chlorine Gas Money and Protect Your Operators

By Ray Sullivan on Mon, Jan 30, 2012 @ 11:38 AM

I wanted to share a good idea that can help save money on chlorine gas while protecting your personnel.

Brian Gunn, of Coastal Chlorinators in Savannah, GA has a customer who prefers dual channel chlorine gas detectors in his remote well sites instead of the typical single sensor gas detector.

The customer places one sensor inside the well house to protect personnel, and the other sensor outside at the vent, so it will alarm if the chlorinator malfunctions. With the detector's alarm relay connected to a phone dialer, officials can be notified immediately instead of being surprised during an onsite visit after a month of wasting gas.
