🔧 : IGD Turnkey Solutions for 1 Canada Square! 🚨

Boiler rooms are essential to building operations, but they also pose serious gas hazards. Common risks like methane (CH₄) and carbon monoxide (CO) leaks require reliable gas detection to protect workers and equipment. This is where our gas detection solutions come in! 👷🏢

✅ Recent Upgrade: We recently completed a major gas detection system upgrade for the boiler room at CBRE at 1 Canada Square.

This was an upgrade from their trusty old IGD 700 system, installed in the early 2000s, to our revolutionary 2-Wire gas detection technology. The fact that the previous system lasted so long is a testament to the build quality of our equipment, and their choice to upgrade with IGD again shows the loyalty of our clients to our products. 🙌

Here’s what we did:

🔹 Upgraded the system with a TOC-635+ control panel, integrated with state-of-the-art TOC-750 Safe Area detectors.
🔹 Saved the client time and money by repurposing their old wiring into the new system.
🔹 Installed methane detectors equipped with our long-life MK8 pellistor sensors, the most poison-resistant sensors in the world! 🌍🔧
🔹 Added detectors with long-life CO sensors to ensure full coverage of the boiler room.
🔹 Reduced the need for costly high work permits by placing detectors and collector cones above potential leak points.
🔹 CBRE benefited from our full turnkey service and industry-leading 10-year warranty on electronics. 📅

🔋 IGD Lead the Charge on Battery Room Gas Detection! 🔋

Our latest brochure on Battery Room Gas Detection has landed and we're giving you a sneak peak! 📘 Whether you’re storing energy for critical applications like hospitals, data centres, or renewable energy, ensuring your battery room is safe and compliant is essential. Here's why you should care:

🔍 The Risks
Battery backup rooms are critical but come with gas hazards that can't be ignored. From hydrogen (H₂) build-up in lead-acid batteries to toxic carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen fluoride (HF) in lithium-ion batteries, these gases can create explosive or toxic environments.

✅ Our Solutions
At IGD, we've got you covered with cutting-edge gas detection technology that meets all regulatory standards, including COSHH and DSEAR:

TOC-635 Plus: Advanced, 2-Wire Addressable Control Panel with real-time monitoring, SMS/email alerts, and cloud-based data access.
TOC-750X ATEX Detector: ATEX-certified for hazardous zones with easy maintenance and long-life sensors.
TOC-903-X5 Dual Gas ATEX Detector: Monitor two gases simultaneously, saving you time, space, and money. Additional standalone transmitter functionality.

⚠️ Why It’s Crucial
Battery storage rooms are required by law to have a fully compliant gas detection system to mitigate risks. Proper ventilation alone won’t cut it! Detecting gases like H₂, CO, and HF can save lives and protect your business.

📞 Ready to Secure Your Battery Room?
Contact our team of experts today to learn more about how we can help you protect your facility and help you stay compliant.
