GfG TeamLink G999L Connected Safety Monitor
1991-002 GfG Instrumentation G999L Team Link- Connected Safety Monitor
TeamLink G999L – your Connected Safety solution
Lone work is defined as work carried out by one person alone, outside the call and sight of other people, even if only for a short time. If this cannot be avoided, employers must take appropriate monitoring measures.
The Connected Safety Monitor TeamLink G999L wirelessly links the gas detection devices of up to 10 team members into a safety network that provides important real time information in case of an alarm.
Functions:
Query the measured values of up to 10 connected gas detection devices in real time · Continuously monitoring radio connections
- Providing team leaders with visual and audible alarms, including information on affected persons and gas concentrations
- Man-down Alarm and Panic Alarm
- LED panel for a quick overview
- On-going information of hazard situations on site to enable rescue services to protect themselves
- Open field range up to 700 m (Europe) / 300 m (USA)
- Ex-approval for I M2 / II 2G
The TeamLink is suitable for use with both the Microtector G888 and Polytector G999. These portable gas monitors must be equipped with an appropriate radio module.
The next logical step in terms of occupational safety in the field of gases: Connected Safety
The primary purpose of portable gas detection devices is to alert their wearer and people in the immediate vicinity of dangerous gas concentrations. However, this alone is not enough. Information about an alarm and its cause must be available to the supervising person, i.e. the team leader, supervisor or the second man of a buddy system.
This is the only way to alert other team members in case of an emergency and to initiate measures without rescuers putting themselves at risk or losing too much time with self-protection against unknown dangers.
Know what is happening on site
When every second counts, the situation on site must be clear at first glance. In the event of an alarm, the TeamLink shows unambiguously whether there is a dangerous situation caused by gas (Alarm Thresholds 1 to 3), whether the person on site is actively requesting help (Panic Alarm) or whether there is a medical emergency (Man-down Alarm).
Be aware when additional measures have to be taken
The TeamLink not only alerts the user to acute dangers, but also indicates as soon as a gas detector can no longer be reached. A yellow display in the LED panel is the signal for the supervisor to take action. It may be enough for a worker to change their position to restore the connection, however, additional measures, such as a buddy system, may become necessary if local conditions do not allow for remote monitoring.
Exploring without endangering peoples life
The combination of the portable gas monitor and TeamLink is also perfect for checking gas concentrations from a safe distance and detecting hazards in time. For example, this allows the use of remote-controlled reconnaissance vehicles to minimise potential risks for employees or rescue teams.
Connected Safety utilizing TeamLink und G888/G999 Visual
