Chlorine (Cl2) Detection

Portable & fixed-point Cl2 detectors for healthcare, pharmaceuticals, chemical manufacturing, agriculture, and environmental testing.

About Chlorine Detection

A greenish-yellow gas with a pungent, irritating odor, Chlorine is indispensable in water purification and as a disinfectant.

It’s a vital reactant in the manufacture of a wide array of products, including pharmaceuticals, textiles, and polyvinyl chloride (PVC) for the construction industry. Given its reactive nature and the risk of forming harmful byproducts, rigorous monitoring in industrial settings is crucial to prevent respiratory issues and other health hazards.

Common Challenges

  • Potential for respiratory issues and other health hazards due to exposure.
  • Risk of forming harmful byproducts in industrial settings.
  • Difficulty in maintaining proper ventilation and detection systems to ensure safety.

Current Guidelines

OSHA:

  • PEL-TWA: 1 ppm (3 mg/m³) [Construction and Maritime Industries only]
  • PEL-STEL: 1 ppm (3 mg/m³)
  • PEL-C: 1 ppm (3 mg/m³) [General Industry only]
