Weatherall posses many years of experience in the design, installation, and commissioning of fixed gas detection systems for small and large companies in a variety of industries. Weatherall have provided services to NEC Semiconductors (over 1000’s sample points), GE Oil & Gas semiconductor fabrication plants, University of Manchester Anatomy Lab, University of Bath Semiconductor Research Lab, and many others including full ATEX installations.
In 2021 Weatherall installed a state-of-the-art ATEX Hydrogen detection system in one of the UK's first purpose-built Hydrogen Bus Maintenance depot.

Riken Keiki are highly regarded world leaders in the manufacture of sequential sampling fixed gas detection systems, these systems are required on Crude Oil Tankers (COTS), Liquified Natural Gas (LNG carriers), Liquified Petroleum Gas (LPG carriers), and Chemical Carriers. Riken's expertise in this area is extensive, competence has been accumulated over decades of design, manufacture, and commissioning. Some of those systems have been running continuously for over 25 years.
Major investments are on the horizon in clean, green technologies such as Hydrogen and Batteries. Weatherall and Riken are focusing on these technologies, and applications in specialist Fixed Gas Detection Sensors, Battery Giga-factories to Hydrogen Powered Vehicles and Green Hydrogen production.
Our experience in the supply, installation, and commissioning of systems for Hydrogen Fuel Cell and High Boiling Point Solvents used in Li-ion battery production to name a few, is invaluable.
If you are interested in Gas Detection for any of these applications, please contact us to discuss your requirements.
We aim to provide a 2–3-day turnaround for our service, calibration, and repairs.
If you have an urgent requirement, please Contact Us in advance to arrange priority service at no extra cost.
Weatherall offer a fixed price for a standard service and calibration, which excludes any parts that may or may not be required.
If there are any additional costs, we would advise after examining the unit, additional works would only be conducted if written authorisation were provided.
For service, calibration, or repair of your Riken or RKI gas detectors, please contact us for a quotation.
Whether you have a Riken fixed installation on-board a vessel, in a semiconductor fabrication, or in an industrial unit, our engineers will be happy to visit you on premises or site. Please contact us for a quotation.
Best practice recommends bump testing as frequently as is practical, and if required, re-calibrate the equipment. This should be done by the user preferably just before use, or to the regime of your company policy. This will give the user the confidence the instrument is functioning correctly.
Weatherall can supply a range of calibration equipment including calibration adaptors, gas cylinders, and regulators. See our product range or get in Contact to discuss further.
All our newer instruments have auto-bump and calibration functionality. This feature makes calibration quick and painless. Using single or multi-gas cylinders, a gas portable monitor can bump test or calibrate all channels together in just a minute or two. With this simplification of the calibration task, we encourage users to bump or calibrate their instruments more frequently than they may have done in the past.
It is generally recommended that a bump test or calibration be performed if it is suspected that the instrument has been subjected to any condition that could have an adverse effect on the unit (sensor poisons, high gas concentrations, extreme temperature, mechanical shock, or stress, etc).

We can provide you with a quotation for works and are also happy to provide advice on how you can maintain your own Riken Equipment.
