Feed mill confined-space FIX800 and LED boards — VPE Korea

Hello from VPE Korea—this project required two 950 km round trips: first for site survey, second for installation.
① Site survey and stakeholder meeting
② Detector and LED installation

We headed out for the site survey.

Scope: one detector, two LED boards, roughly 100 m of cable in rigid conduit.

Because conduit had to be anchored every ~3 m while pulling cable, we measured distances and bill-of-materials carefully during visit #1.

Installation day: the underground work area is confined with multiple toxics, so we mounted FIX800 beside the electrical gear and ran rigid conduit to each LED.

LED locations: confined-space entrance and control room. Detector covers the highest asphyxiation risk zone.

Channels: O₂ 0–30% vol, H₂S 0–100 ppm, CO 0–1000 ppm, combustibles 0–100% LEL.

Steel conduit linked the control room to the remote head—longer distance than expected, so schedule padding mattered.

Inside the control room we stacked the gas overview above the CCTV wall for ergonomic viewing.

Commissioning and training wrapped successfully—field work always throws curveballs, but seeing stable readings makes the effort worthwhile.
