Wise Safety & Environmental offers mobile & in-house service centers and training programs

January 4, 2013
Wise Safety & Environmental consists of Wise El Santo Co. and its wholly owned subsidiary, Reis Environmental, with operating divisions of Oha Instruments, Zink Safety and Reis Emergency Products & Services. We are a national distributor of safety, health, abatement, environmental, instruments, fire, police, and domestic emergency preparedness products and services.

Rudolph L. Wise, Sr. started Wise El Santo in 1892. Sensing an opportunity, Rudolph L. Wise, Jr. began selling gloves to the large plants in the St. Louis area. In the 1970s, the company focused on selling a growing array of gloves and safety equipment to companies around the world. In the 1980s, he began bringing complimentary quality safety companies into Wise El Santo, which continues to today.

Reis Environmental offers a wide range of safety, health, abatement and environmental products. Value added services keep customers’ operations at peak efficiency and their employees safe. Our trained, experienced sales and support staffs aim to be customers’ total health, safety, and environmental solution.

Oha Instruments understands the complexities of instrumentation, confined space entry equipment, and breathing air products. Our employees are specialists in their fields and can offer recommendations as well as a variety of equipment choices. Oha Instruments provides a single source for sales, repair, rental and technical information on all instrumentation, breathing air and related products.

Zink Safety In operation since the 1950s, Zink Safety has supplied safety equipment for all the major safety brands. Prescription eyewear is one of their specialties.

Reis Emergency Products & Services (REPS) provides a full line of products and services designed for fire departments, police departments, hazmat and emergency medical organizations. REPS offers a complete inventory of domestic emergency preparedness supplies and equipment.

Services

In-House and Field/Mobile Service Centers*

Our service centers underscore our commitment to customer satisfaction. Instruments and other items require regular maintenance for reliable operation. To offer improved service, we established field service, mobile service and in-house repair facilities complete with all the necessary diagnostic equipment. Our experienced service staff will keep instruments and breathing air equipment functioning correctly longer. We are capable of handling a customer’s needs from specialized calibration kits to board level repair and SCBA rebuilds.

With our stock of vital parts, and experienced factory trained technicians, downtime is kept to a minimum. We maintain a repair history of every item that comes through our repair system. Each customer receives a detailed printout of repairs and parts used with their returned product.

Companies with SCBA’s and instruments are often reluctant to send equipment away for service. Their fear is to have an emergency without enough equipment to respond. We have solved this concern by developing mobile repair trailers. Our trailer can be brought to any location for on-site product repairs. The SCBA’s and instruments are immediately available in the event an emergency arises.

Instrument Service

Air Samplers

Available maintenance procedures for air sampling instruments include cleaning internal parts, verifying battery condition, and replacing maintenance parts such as filters, valves and diaphragms.

Sensor Replacement

We can replace worn out sensors to bring your instrument back to original specifications.

Circuit Board Repairs

Our technicians work with the electronics that control gas detection instruments. By repairing or replacing boards, the instrument can be returned to full operating capabilities.

Noise Instruments

We will check the calibration of customers’ noise instrument to ensure it is measuring correctly.

Testing Services

Respiratory Testing & Cleaning

On-site or in-house, our ultrasonic cleaner uses hospital-grade disinfecting chemicals to thoroughly clean protective face masks according to OSHA, ANSI and CSA regulations. Periodic cleanings reduce the transfer of germs and extend a respirator’s life span.

Respiratory Fit Testing – PortaCount

• Quantitative respiratory fit testing

• Can test a wide variety of tight-fitting respiratory equipment, including N95 disposables

• Required annually Level A Suit Pressure Testing

• On site or in-house

• Required annually or after each use

SCBA Function Test and Repair

With Sperian’s POSICHECK3, we can test all the major functions of your SCBA including positive pressure levels, exhalation resistance, static pressure, alarm levels, pressure gauge function, and system leaks.

Air Quality Tests

Technicians go on site to check for excessive levels of moisture, oxygen, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, oil, and hydrocarbons. The results of the test verify the proper operation of your compressor and filters.

*Available services vary by branch. Call for details.
