Gas Detection 101 — Bump Testing & Best Practices

When to Bump Test

A bump test briefly exposes sensors to test gas to verify response and alarms.

  • Daily before use or beginning of shift
  • After maintenance or sensor replacement
  • After impact (drops/shocks) or known exposure
  • After long storage or if readings seem abnormal

How to Bump Test

Use a docking station or regulator/tubing with certified test gas.

  • Attach test gas and flow briefly per manufacturer instructions
  • Confirm each sensor responds and alarms activate
  • Clear gas, verify device returns to normal readings
  • Log the test (dock, software, or paper record)

Calibration vs. Bump

Calibration adjusts a sensor to a known standard to restore accuracy; a bump test verifies response only.

  • Establish a written schedule for both
  • Keep certificates & logs with the instrument
  • Re-zero in fresh air when appropriate
Clean vs. dirty gas monitor comparison highlighting maintenance and inspection needs
Keep monitors clean and within spec—regular bump tests and scheduled calibrations help prevent unsafe readings.
