Site Specific Areas
SAP
SAP - Methods & Tactics
**211p Daily Sign IN SHEET - MATCH TO WORKDAY
- Monitoring Focus
- Downwind of Site or Full Coverage (Both)
- FRT - Fixed Real Time
- RL - Roaming Location
- Both - FRT OR RL
- Low Lying Areas
- Always Enter Readings with no Bias (detect or non-detect)
- Note Wind Direction in Comments
- 20.9% Always for Oxygen
- Quad gas - 50% methane (LEL), 18% O2
- Photos Only for Gastec (be can on other if changes)
- ENTER INFO IN SUCH A WAY THAT SOMEONE WHO IS NOT ON SITE CAN UNDERSTAND
- DRIFT - Readings appear off - Get 2nd Reading
- Contact Team Lead or PM with Questions
- PTD - Project Technical Director
- Data entry questions, ask Data Manager, a full-time CTEH employee nearby, then the PM
SAP
SAP - Methods & Tactics - Cont
- Monitor Around worker/ work areas primarily (if no one around, who are you monitoring for?)
- Watch for Pinch Points
- Watch for Moving Vehicles/Equipment - Eye Contact
- Know (Delineation & Action Levels) Difference between:
- —– Community Location
- ——Work Area
- —— Site Characterization
- Contact Team Lead - Safety Concerns or Constructive Ideas
SAP
SAP - Methods & Tactics - Supplies
- Asking for Supplies
- Be Specific Number Requested
- Check Stock
- Case vs Box
- Nothing sold by the case
- DO NOT - Ship Electronics w/o pelican or cushion box
- DO NOT - Ship Calibration Gas (unless certified)
- LEAVE - Calibration Gas with Client/Fire Dept/Contractor
- IF CAN NOT LEAVE - Bleed Out and Turn to Porta Gas
- LEAVE - Contaminate on Site
- DO NOT - Ship Dirty Equipment (bad impression, replace stained tubing)
- DO NOT - Use Duct, Painters, Masking or Gaft Tape
- SHAKE OVER TRASH - Broken Glass of Gastec Tubes
- REPORT BREAKS - Delilah - Serial # and Details
SAP
SAP - Methods & Tactics - Readings/Project Log
* * Project Log - new activity that may affect a larger group that doesn’t need gps or photo - Document anything that effects Readings (Raining, Lighthing Strike, Dust Storm, Demobilization, etc.) Can add on any if something is drastically changing or work site.
- Monitoring Focus
- Downwind of Site or Full Coverage (Both)
- FRT F- ixed Real Time
- RL - Roaming Location
- Both - FRT OR RL
- Low Lying Areas
- Record Readings at mininal every 15 minutes
- Enter Readings with no Bias (detect or non-detect)
- Note Wind Direction in Comments
- 20.9% Always for Oxygen
- Photos Only for Gastec (be can on other if changes)
- DRIFT - Readings appear off - Get 2nd Reading
- Secondary Instrumentation to Confirm (Positive/Inconsistant)
-
Enter info in such a way that some one who is not on site can understand - BUT KEEP IN MIND I
Think about how to it will look in litigation will handle what you send in! What can a lawyer do to it!
SAP
SIERA
- Primary Identifier – Serial #
- Incidence photo in relation w/machine
- SIERA - used when a GPS & photo are necessary (fixed equipment set-up, deploying ARs)
MultiRae - Multiple Gas Monitor
O2 - Oxygen = 20.9%
LEL - Lower Explosive Limits (%)
PID - PID measures VOC - Volatile Organic Compounds
Multiple Gas Monitor
Most commonly used “5-gas meter” - 5 sensors at one time
Sensors: Oxygen, LEL(%), PID (Photoionization Detector) (PID measures VOC - Volatile Organic Compounds) space for two more
Take sets of reading for RealTime EVERY time, unless told otherwise (LEL, O2, PID)
O2 always at 20.9% - never “non-detect” unless something is very wrong.
Quad gas to measure O2 and LEL
Iso gas to measure VOC
AreaRae Plus - Multiple gas meter
LEL - Lower Explosive Limits
02 - Oxygen (most common use)
PID - Photoionization Detector - PID measures VOC
VOC - Volatile Organic Compounds
Multiple gas meter
Can use Up to 7 sensors at a time
Commonly used sensors: Oxygen, LEL, PID (VOC)
Can be set to collect data at intervals and sent directly to Host/computer
Uses telemetry to transmit data back to ProRAE Gardian on a PC
——Telemeting issues can be due to distance, weather, batteries, physical barriers, etc.
Use SIERA when deploying to include pictures and GPS of location/positioning
UltraRae 3000 - Compound-specific monitor (Benzene & Butadiene)
Compound-specific monitor
Mostly used for Benzene, also Butadiene
Requires SEP (separation tubes) to scrub out unwanted VOCs
**SEP tubes are used to filter out all other VOCs except for the substance you want to test for, primarily benzene. **
Use benzene 5 PPM cal gas
Use a new benzene SEP tube to calibrate, then change to a fresh after calibration for testing. If you get a positive reading, get a fresh tube and test again to confirm.
Gastec gv-100 - Gas sampling pump
Gas sampling pump
—– Identify presence of specific chemicals where other instrument may not be appropriate
Uses chemical specific colorimetric tubes
Thousands of compatible chemicals of interest
Include QC # (GC#?) and expiration date from tube box in additional comments
Include wide direction in additional comments
In instrument details include pump volume (volume of pulls x number of pulls)
**Only device that correction factor is applied and noted. **All other instruments are documented as-read
If you get a color change, document, replace tubes, and test again to confirm
Gastcs vs PID: Sometimes used instead of other equipment to narrow down which VOCs you’re detecting when other instruments may not be able to be specific. Also have a wide range of chemicals they can test for.
Measures for specific chemicals, and confirm readings from other machines
Gastec tubes – shake over trash to remove broken glass.
AM510 / AM520 - Particulate Matter Monitor
Particulate Matter Monitor **- smoke, dust, ash…
Rain, fog, humidity effect readings
**Utilizes a laser to measure particles **
——Can overheat if plugged-in wrong
——-sensitive to drops
—- Do NOT DROP
Grease/oil impinger every 24-hours when calibrating
Measures in micrograms per cubic meter
Drager X-PID 8500 - Multiple gas monitor
Multiple Gas Monitor
—– Integrated gas chromatography
—– Detect growing list of target compounds (VOC’s)
——Can create analysis programs
** Handheld control unit**
Temperture sensitive (external and internal)
** Rechargeable battery**
** Delicate sampling wand**
DRIFT - Confirming
Readings appear off - Get 2nd Reading
* Secondary Instrumentation to Confirm
* Document Both Serial#’s/or unit #’s(drifting & confirming instrument)
* Location
* Action Taken to Remedy (recalibration)
* Note Outcome
* Do RealTime log of MR used to confirm reading
