Alarm Action Messages
Alarm action messages provide instructional text to let users know how to react properly when an instrument goes into alarm. These messages can be programmed for each alert/alarm setpoint to tell the user whether they should don a respirator, evacuate, or take whatever action is dictated by the company emergency response plan. Alarm action messages mean that an instrument user doesn't need to be trained to interpret and understand the meaning of all gas readings.
iASSIGN™ Technology
iAssign Technology uses near field communication (NFC) to assign users and locations to Ventis Pro Series instruments, which helps workers know who used an instrument where and when, making gas hazard analysis more effective.
Panic and Man-Down Alarms
If a worker needs assistance or medical attention, pressing the panic button activates the audible and visual alarms, letting others in the area know that the worker needs help. If a worker fails to move and acknowledge an alert within a preset period, the man-down alarm is activated, letting anyone in the area know that the user is in distress.
