CLIENT<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tPMR Products client was tasked with providing communication and worker safety at a site covering more than 15 acres and incorporating a Victorian pump house, modern blocks housing processing areas, decommissioned sand beds and smaller ancillary buildings, replacing a legacy system of analogue radios, mobiles and pagers.\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t

SOLUTION<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

The streamlined solution provided makes use of Bluetooth beacons and GPS technology and Hytera two-way radios, which work with both technologies to provide coverage both indoors and outside<\/p>

Location Monitoring and Communication<\/strong><\/p>

In the control room SafetyNet software monitors three key elements:<\/p>

The location of two-way radios users inside covered by Bluetooth beacons is shown on schematics of the building, with an icon for each radio tracking movement
The location of two-way radio users covered by GPS are shown on a map of the site
The communications enables control room staff to communicate with radio users, either one-to-many or as private calls, and to manage Lone Worker and Man Down alerts from radios, which provide for worker safety.
A full telephone interconnect allows radio users to make and receive telephone calls effectively making the onsite radios system a very powerful extension to the mobile telephone network<\/p>

Alarm Handling<\/strong><\/p>

The water treatment works is a complex operation, and the control centre handles in the region of 1500 alerts a day from BMS and SCADA systems and the two-way radio users. Integrating the Hytera digital radios with SafetyNet software allows operatives to receive SCADA and BMS alerts direct to their two-way radio wherever they are on site so has freed them from the control room.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
