Hazardous areas pose an inherent risk. With the potential for combustions to occur, it is important to consider how you can integrate technology to enhance not only health and safety, but also operational efficiency and security. Many industrial settings are hazardous due to the potential presence of combustible substances such as gas or dust. While … Continued
Balancing safety and security are essential in any sector, and it’s certainly the case in agriculture and food production. While surveillance brings many benefits, it’s critical that any security solution plays a role in reducing other safety risks. Here we explore how explosion-protected cameras can offer all the benefits of high-quality surveillance in this industry, … Continued
We’ll admit it, the technology industry can be terrible for creating jargon which almost seems designed to confuse rather than bring clarity. In our area of the sector, a question we’re often asked is: “What’s the difference between an explosion-protected camera, an explosion proof camera, and a flameproof camera?” In truth, the answer is, “Not … Continued
Across a wide range of industrial processes, temperature is an indicator of machine or system health. While rising temperatures can indicate the potential for overheating, lower temperatures can signal a pressure leak. As a result, the ability to effectively monitor system temperature is an important contributor to optimizing operational efficiency. Most seriously, rapidly rising temperature … Continued
Hazardous areas where flammable material such as gas or dust are liable to an increased risk of explosion are common in settings ranging from petrochemical plants through to food processing factories. Often, it’s essential or beneficial to use electrical equipment in these environments. This includes network cameras to ensure health and safety, security, and operational … Continued
