NEWBURY PARK, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)—October 26, 2006–Electronic Sensor Technology (EST), a leading provider of innovative environmental and security solutions, announces the receipt of follow-on order from GEI Consultants for their third zNose to be used for testing air samples while monitoring reclamation sites. zNose has demonstrated the ability to detect and quantify the chemicals in air samples to a very low level. If the concentration level of selected chemicals, such as known carcinogens, is above allowable limits, zNose alerts the GEI Consultant’s Engineer to the condition and the reclamation work stops until the problem is corrected. This capability provides workers with real-time safeguards in their workplace.
“We are very pleased with this order from GEI Consultants for their third zNose instrument. I am personally gratified to know that EST can play such an important part in helping to ensure a healthier and safer work place for these workers dedicated to improving our environment” said Dr. Teong Lim, President and CEO of EST.
