A high-tech videoscope hired from Ashtead Technology Rentals helped an environmental services company to significantly reduce down-time during routine health and safety checks
Ashtead General Manager James Carlyle said: "We are extremely pleased to have reached this agreement with Crowcon because it fits with our policy of offering the latest leading-edge technology".
The LMm also enables users to operate and monitor from a safe distance, eliminating the need to come into contact with any gases.
It only responds to methane, even when other gases are present.
Louise Early, Product Manager at Crowcon, explained: "Due to the very nature of the product, it is expected that survey times will be greatly reduced.
Having Ashtead as a partner offers the opportunity for users to rent this revolutionary equipment.
Utilising the Ashtead experience with high technology equipment, we can ensure that customers will receive the best possible service, training and prompt delivery as part of their rental.
Crowcon look forward to working with Ashtead in the UK, with a view to expanding into other territories in the near future".
