You don’t have to be working in a coal mine to need respiratory protection. In fact, some of the most dangerous airborne hazards are invisible. This is where OSHA’s 1910.134 respiratory protection standard comes in, mandating everything from hazard assessments to fit testing and maintenance. Yet even the most rigorous safety protocols can’t prevent sudden emergencies, such as chemical leaks, underground gas pockets, or a fire breaking out on-site. That’s when emergency escape devices become vital.
Self-contained Self-rescuers
For energy transition workers, especially those in remote or enclosed environments, escape respirators can mean the difference between life and death. The right emergency solution needs to be compact, easy to don, and reliable under pressure. This is where Ocenco’s line of self-contained self-rescuers (SCSRs) stands out.
Designed for harsh environments and unpredictable conditions, Ocenco’s SCSRs, including the M-20 and EBA 6.5, offer instant oxygen supply and hands-free operation. These devices are sealed, maintenance-free, and boast impressive shelf lives, making them a smart choice for any operation focused on long-term safety and compliance.
A Safe Future Demands Smart Protection
The energy transition promises a more sustainable planet, but we owe it to the workers building that future to prioritize their safety. Respiratory hazards will evolve as new industries emerge, but with smart planning and the right tools, employers can stay ahead of the curve.
For mines, factories, and job sites navigating the demands of a cleaner energy landscape, Ocenco’s high-quality self-rescuers offer peace of mind and proven protection. Distributed by Carroll Technologies, these devices are ready when your team needs them most.
