Gas Detector Calibration & Bump Test Gas

Protecting Australian workers from Toxic Gases and Oxygen-Deficiency

Gas detectors are a vital first line of defense in hazardous environments, protecting workers from toxic gases, oxygen-deficient atmospheres, and explosive vapours. But like any sensitive instrument, gas monitors must be calibrated regularly to ensure they’re providing accurate, life-saving readings. Even a minor drift in sensor accuracy can have serious — or fatal — consequences.

Zokal Safety Services offers professional calibration of portable and fixed gas detection equipment, ensuring your devices meet the manufacturer’s specifications and Australian Standard AS/NZS 60079.29.2. With over 35 years of experience servicing safety-critical instruments, we help you ensure that every reading is trustworthy — and every worksite is safe.

Core Calibration Services:

  • Certified Calibration of Portable & Fixed Gas Detectors for all major gas types and detection brands.
  • Bump Test Gas Supply & Functional Testing to verify daily device response.
  • Compliance with AS/NZS 60079.29.2 and manufacturer-recommended calibration intervals.
  • In-House or On-Site Calibration Services to minimise downtime.
  • Documentation & Calibration Certificates Provided for audit, insurance, and WHS compliance.

Why Gas Detector Calibration Matters 

Gas detectors rely on delicate sensors that degrade over time — especially when exposed to humidity, temperature swings, dust, and chemical vapours. Calibration ensures that sensor output remains accurate, and that alarm set points are triggered at the correct concentrations.

AS/NZS 60079.29.2 and all major gas detector manufacturers recommend:

  • Calibration at least every 6 months (more frequently in high-risk conditions)

  • Daily bump testing before use to ensure the unit is functioning properly

Failure to perform these checks can result in false readings, delayed alarms, or total failure to detect a life-threatening atmosphere. Zokal ensures that your detectors are not just working — they’re calibrated, verified, and compliant.
