Industrial Scientific Releases New White Paper on DualSense™ Technology

A new white paper, “DualSense™ Technology: Why two are safer than one,” has been released by Industrial Scientific.

 It is
a resource for those who want to learn more about DualSense Technology found in
the company’s newest single gas monitor – the TangoTX1.

The white paper reveals statistics on the low frequency of gas detector bump
tests being performed, and the risks workers take by using an instrument that
has not been proven fully functional and reliable via a bump test. This data,
derived from a study of more than 25,000 gas monitors used in the field and
more than 2 million bump tests, prompted the development of the redundant
sensor technology.

DualSense Technology includes two of the same type sensor for the detection
of a single gas. The two sensor readings are processed through a proprietary
algorithm and displayed as a single reading to the user. With Tango’s DualSense
Technology, workers are safer regardless of bump test frequency.

“On average, workers using an instrument with DualSense Technology are 85
times safer than those using a typical single gas monitor,” said Raghu
Arunachalam, Ph.D., global director at Industrial Scientific and author of the
white paper. “DualSense Technology is a cost-effective way to significantly
improve the safety of all workers protected by single gas monitors.”
