Environmental monitoring can be described as the set of processes and activities that are required to characterize and inspect the quality of the environment. Generally, environmental monitors system is used in the preparation of environmental impact assessments, as well as in many conditions which involve high risk of harmful effect on the natural environment due to human interference. Almost all monitoring policies and programmes contain reasons and justifications which are often designed to establish the current status of an environment or to place new trends in environmental parameters. Without the proper definition of objectives to be achieved, there is no point in establishing an environmental monitoring system. There should be a proper action plan before installing a monitoring system. First there is a need to mention the types of gases, vapors, particulates, and noise etc that you need to examine and over what ranges you need to detect them. Explain the prime reason behind this examination. Is it to prevent an explosion? To prevent asphyxiation? To prevent employee exposure to toxic gases or vapors? To monitor noise levels? To control a process? At what levels do you wish to take action, what are the actions that need to be taken? The area to be examined must be read carefully and the questions on the application survey must be carefully examined and considered. This action will help the application engineers to decide the most accurate area to be examined and install the environmental monitoring system specific to the defined area. What is the total size and shape of space? What is the classification of the area? Are the sensors needed to be explosion proof? The site where the controller will be installed must be carefully examined and the questions regarding the area must be answered on the applications survey. A thorough inspection of the site will help you choose the most fitted controller for your needs. Operational for over 45 years, Gage Technique International Ltd has been at the cutting edge of monitoring instrumentation and environmental monitoring system for both structural and civil engineering disciplines.
