 The Ventis Slide-on Pump is an in-field attachable and in-field removable pump. This enables the use of a single compatible instrument for both personal monitoring (diffusion) and confined space applications. present unique dangers that workers must be prepared to handle. Despite tight regulations and technological advancements, permit-required confined space entry accidents and fatalities remain a problem. According to OSHA, confined spaces are responsible for around 200 deaths every year and 60% of those deaths are workers who were attempting a rescue. What is the key to mitigating the risk of working in confined spaces Confined spaces can be extremely dangerous—low oxygen levels, combustible gases, and toxic substances are just a few of the threats your workers may encounter within a confined space. Despite awareness, regulation, and technological advancements, confined space injuries and fatalities continue to occur. 

Gas stratification in confined spaces is the way different gases settle in a space based on their weight in relation to air. The toxic gases that you may commonly encounter in confined spaces have a typical stratification pattern. For example, hydrogen sulfide (H2S) settles at the bottom—it’s a heavier-than-air gas. Carbone monoxide (CO), which is slightly lighter than air, tends to settle in the middle, while methane sits on top.
