AeroGuard Welding Fume Air Monitor
by Welding Helmets Online
Are you looking to take proactive steps to protect your welders and other employees from the harm of welding fume?
Look no further than the AeroGuard Welding Fume Air Monitor. This groundbreaking new product allows you to monitor welding fume levels (and other pollutants) in the workplace in realtime.
The Welding Fume Workplace Exposure Standard was introduced in Australia in January 2024, when the statutory upper maximum limit of welding fume was reduced from 5mg/m³ down to 1mg/m³.
1mg/m³ isn't a 'safe' level of welding fume; it is the absolute maximum acceptable limit allowable in a workplace.
As an employer, "you must take all reasonably practicable steps to eliminate or minimise the risks from exposure to welding fumes, not just ensuring that exposure is below the WES." - (Safe Work Australia)
Unlike one-off fume monitoring options (which may only give you readings across a short, temporary testing period), this welding fume monitor gives you an ongoing way to monitor and understand how the quality of air changes on an hourly, daily, weekly, monthly or yearly basis, with realtime measurement and access to historical data.
Given the implications of breaching the statutory upper maximum limit, this welding fume air monitor is a must have for any company employing welders in any capacity.
