Registration is now open for our no-cost webinar hosted by Process Heating, which will go over the importance and advantages of proper LFL/LEL monitoring in process heating applications. 

Every year excessive increases in LFL levels result in severe plant damage, extended downtime, injuries and even death to personnel. Using the correct analyzer to monitor the LFL level in the process can greatly reduce these risks. Compliance with standards and insurance requirements is also a concern that can be addressed with the right analyzer.

As fireworks soar sky high around the Fourth of July, so do injuries. As the holiday approaches, the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) demonstrated the power fireworks, legal and illegal.

According to the CPSC, last year five people were killed and more than 9,000 were injured in fireworks-related incidents, the majority in a 30-day period around July 4.

Those injuries ranging from cuts, scrapes to permanent disfigurement, including severe burns, amputation of fingers and serious eye trauma.
