BreatheSafe’s OnGuard Improves Underground Air Safety

BreatheSafe has introduced the OnGuard air quality management system to improve safety and comfort in underground environments such as tunnels and mines, where ventilation is limited and airborne contaminants pose ongoing health risks. The system continuously monitors and regulates dust, carbon dioxide and air pressure, automatically maintaining clean air in control rooms, break areas and medical spaces. OnGuard operates without manual adjustment and records data to support compliance and performance tracking.

In addition to OnGuard, BreatheSafe provides a range of filtration and pressurisation solutions for operator cabins and electrical enclosures. These systems are designed to prevent dust ingress, sustain positive pressure and manage airflow and temperature, helping protect both personnel and sensitive equipment. By integrating these solutions across underground operations, sites can improve reliability, reduce maintenance needs and limit worker exposure to harmful particulates and gases.

BreatheSafe’s stated mission is to achieve “zero exposure” for operators by eliminating contact with airborne contaminants and delivering consistently clean air in even the most challenging underground conditions.
