Carbon Monoxide Expert - Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Expert

Bison engineers can design and conduct testing programs and scientific demonstrations for a variety of applications including carbon monoxide poisonings and carbon monoxide investigations, gas and explosion-related topics, soil gas migration, gas vapor in air dilutions, detonation potential of nitromethane, confined space explosive limits, electrical and electronic component testing, and vehicular crash testing.

Carbon Monoxide Poisoning and Carbon Monoxide Investigation

Carbon Monoxide Data Acquisition (CO-DAQ) Monitoring System

A prime example of a proprietary Bison-designed testing system is CO-DAQ (Carbon Monoxide Expert Data Acquisition, used in carbon monoxide investigations and carbon monoxide poisonings). While independent data logging systems fail to provide a reliable time-based comparison between locations, CO-DAQ provides real-time, multiple location sampling simultaneously, with a comparative history between locations. CO production dynamic response is identified through use of sensors that record variables such as temperature (flue, ambient inside and outside), wind velocity, LEL, oxygen, and others to predict trends associated with combustion gas production. Each sensor recording is sampled at a predetermined frequency and initiated at a true start time to allow accurate computations of outside wind speed over the flue stack and temperatures (Thermocouple – B, J, K, R, S, T, and E), and RTD (Thermistor, PRT) to evaluate production rates and dispersion anomalies.

Based on a notebook computer with proprietary state-of-the-art Data Acquisition hardware and software programmed specifically for the carbon monoxide monitoring application, the CO-DAQ’s complete portability allows on-location testing under many of the original variables.

Accelerometer & Impact Monitoring System

Bison performs staged vehicle impact testing using state-of-the-art DAQ (Data Acquisition) and Accelerometer Systems. In an accident reconstruction, accelerometers are placed on the occupant(s) and on the vehicle to recreate and record staged vehicle impacts, damage/crush documentation, vehicle acceleration/velocity profiles, occupant impact testing, occupant response documentation, occupant acceleration profiles, range of motion, and injury potential. The purpose of such recreation is to visually demonstrate to jurors precisely what happened during an accident they did not witness.

Metallurgical and Laboratory Testing

Bison combines metallurgical testing with chemical testing performed by professionals both inside and outside the company. These tests are conducted under stringent laboratory conditions in order to arrive at unassailable and appropriate conclusions.

Bison engineers are experts in carbon monoxide poisonings and carbon monoxide investigations.
