Why VOC Monitoring is Essential in Multi-Material-Mix Repair Environments
The Cameleon Mobile VOC Detector can detect more than 700 VOCs and other toxic compounds. That’s important because in the Multi-Material-Mix (MMM) repair environment, there are a lot of potential sources and the concentrations can soon build up to levels that are unacceptable.
Many of the VOCs found inside bodyshop and garage workshops are produced during the vehicle body and parts manufacturing processes. They are released during the MMM repair and mechanical processes. Others are components of various paints, refrigerants, or petroleum products such as fuels, engine oils, or other engine fluids. VOCs are also emitted as part of the EV battery degeneration process. In bodyshops, glues and other bonding agents and fillers are additional sources of VOCs, which are emitted as gases from both solids and liquids. Inside the enclosed bodyshop or garage workshop environment, concentrations soon build up.
The Cameleon Mobile VOC Detector is a hand-held future-proof, easy to use portable device, designed to be used to make checks before the vehicle enters the repair environment. Regular use helps to reduce the build-up of VOCs inside.
