ICT and Heavy Industry
The Challenge
In today's global environment, the requirement for robust security measures at heavy industry facilities - chemical plants, food manufacturers, and oil and mining operations - has never been greater. Those responsible for ensuring the smooth running of critical plant and equipment have to contend with a broad range of challenges from petty vandals, to professional criminals and even terrorist attacks.
There’s a requirement to know who's on site and where they are at any given time, the need to protect valuable equipment and machinery, and to restrict access to high risk areas to ensure health and safety standards are met.
Key features an ICT solution provides include:
Area Counting
Limits the number of people in an Area. Great for carparks and hazardous areas.
Man Down
Triggers an alarm when no active movement or response is detected within a set period of time so other people on site, a monitoring station, and /or emergency services are notified.
Dual Authentication
Requires two authorized users to supply credentials to gain access to a door.
Door Interlocking
Allows only a single door in a defined group to be open at one time. Ideal for preventing dangerous things getting in or out of a hazardous area.
Integrated Intruder Detection
Built in full featured intrusion detection provides user convenience and intelligent control.
Emergency Egress
Unlock a single door, an egress path, or the entire site to facilitate a smooth and trouble free emergency evacuation.
Automatic Re-arm
Automatically arm an area once it has been disarmed for a period. Limit the duration that a user can remain in an area.
Loiter Areas
Allows users to transit through an area but prevents them from remaining too long or loitering.
