Life Safety Emergency Call Video
To help keep personnel working in high threat environments safe, the Flash ™ emergency
alarm system instantly sends a call for help at the touch of a button. When a user causes an
alarm by activating his / her Personal Protection Device (PPD) the PPD emits an RF signal that
is picked up by Flash ™ sensors installed in wall or ceiling spaces.
The Flash ™ sensors in turn signal the alarm condition to the central control computer running
Flash ™ user interface software. The alarm and PPD is displayed to security personnel. Flash
™ is ideal for individuals who work in an environment where their safety could be threatened
by physical assault, sudden illness or an accident.
Flash ™ RF sensors are installed in wall or ceiling spaces of the area being provided with
Flash ™ coverage. Both indoor and outdoor areas can be covered. The PPD contains a radio
frequency transmitter and is worn on the user’s belt. When a user needs assistance, he / she
simply presses a button on the PPD which transmits the alarm signal.
Pull-pin and man-down (tilt activated) options can be added.
The Flash ™ system uses reliable radio frequency technology that alerts security personnel
when a staff member is in trouble. Although the PPD is compact, it is powerful enough to send
an instantaneous distress signal up to 1 Km (0.6 mi.) when the alarm button is pushed. Sensors
in the facility identify the signal and a control room computer displays the PPD’s unique ID
number and displays the name of the user or facility to which the device is assigned.
Flash ™ is designed to operate in a concrete and metal environment, so building material,
smoke, heavy clothing or people will not block the signal. It operates on a licensed frequency
within the Public Safety frequency band, and so is protected from interference from other radio
signals. PPDs and
sensors can be added as required.
