Industrial Saddle Vent® Confined Space Entry Ventilation
Technique
 The
Saddle Vent Ventilation Technique For Confined Space Ventilation
The Saddle Vent® was invented by a professional tank
cleaner to make it easy for his workers to enter and exit a confined space. The
Saddle Vent® takes up only 3 inches in a manhole and functions as an
air conduit. Eight inch air hose is attached to both ends of The Saddle Vent®
and placed in the entry access hole, thus eliminating the need to remove the
hose each time entry or egress is required. The Saddle Vent®
revolutionizes confined space operations by offering a level of safety and
productivity that has never been available. One model is available for
industrial manhole work, and a specific model is designed for doing tank entry
work. The Saddle Vent's® unique air flow design does not reduce
air flow to the worker.

The Saddle Vent®
ventilator provides continuous access to the manhole for either entry or
egress. Traveling in and out of the confined space can now be done quickly
and safely. The Saddle Vent® increases worker productivity as
well as the ability to perform confined entry rescue. The entire Saddle Vent®
system can be completely set up in less than five minutes. Eight inch air
duct is installed on the bottom of The Saddle Vent® and run to
the bottom of the manhole. This allows fresh air to be supplied to the
workers and displace any harmful gases that may be deadly for the occupants.
The use of the 90° elbow removes the severe kink in the air duct and allows
for rotation of the intake duct to any desired position at the street level. |
