In a widely distributed, restricted and noisy areas like a shipyard, it is difficult for a normal person to shout loud in order to alert or warn shipyard personnel from any hazard or unusual occurrences for e.g. Fire, Flood and Accidents.

These occurrences may seriously threaten the life of the personnel working in such working environment if they are not made known quickly to all the personnel at sites as well as to the key safety committee members for planning and implement immediate rescue measures. Under such case, there is a need for an effective panic button alarm system that gives both the visual impact especially during the night and audio impact especially during the day.

While traditional dialup monitoring alarm system may be also feasible in areas like workshops, it is impossible to be implemented on the ships under repair due to lack of fixed telephone lines. Different ships may be under repair at different times and it is not easy to implement a fixed wired type of monitoring system.

TMAS GSM Panic / Emergency Alarm Box is customized built with the use of TMN-50 for such panic / emergency alarm monitoring purpose and to address the above issues. To last longer under semi outdoor condition, it consists of various water proofing parts like the rugged enclosure, 107db siren, strobe light, panic buttons for Fire, Flood and Accident Indicators as well as the IP67 rated industrial power socket. Since it just need the AC point to operate, it can be easily deployed at any shipyard location with power point.

Upon any press of the three panic buttons, TMN-50 will quickly sent out predefined SMS alerts to the safety officers. If a particular safety officer did not SMS acknowledge back to the TMN-50, the alert can be resent again based on resend times and intervals. If there is no acknowledgement by the safety officers after the resend period, the alert can be escalated to the next higher safety committee members and so forth. With the triggering of TMN-50 input, it can also set to uses the output of TMN-50 to trigger both the siren and the strobe light so as to attract attention and nearby help.

A better alarm means and faster response time may save precious lives and also improves the work safety standard of an organization.
