Alarmierungs- und Warnsysteme Industrieanlagen

Industrial plants and power stations

Holistic solutions for maximum safety in industry

Many factories and chemical plants store and use substances that are hazardous to life and health (e.g. radioactive substances, oil products, natural gas, chemicals or explosives). This creates a risk of disasters, such as the release of hazardous substances, endangering people and the environment. To protect their employees and the neighbourhood, companies must therefore take safety precautions, such as an emergency plan and an alarm system, in accordance with Articles 7-10 of the SEVESO Directive 2012/18/EU and Articles 3 and 11 of the Swiss Major Accidents Ordinance (MAO).

Kockum Sonics, in partnership with sureVIVE, offers a comprehensive and robust emergency notification and response solution for industry. Reliable, intelligent sirens enable loud alerting of personnel and the surrounding area, even in the event of a power failure. The Momentum PRO software also enables efficient coordination and communication between all parties involved and the emergency services. We provide you with the infrastructure for a fast and effective response to an emergency event, helping you to comply with safety regulations.

 

"In addition to the fast implementation and processing of the order, I see the main advantage as being the power of the sirens, which can penetrate even the strongest concrete walls. I also appreciate the fact that the solution is VKF or at least GVZ-approved and thus fulfils all fire protection requirements, as well as the professional expertise of your employees."

The emergency response coordination software Momentum PRO, from our partner sureVIVE, displays the current location of emergency vehicles, emergency services personnel and defibrillators. In addition, incident commanders and doctors can use the live video function to get an overview of the situation at any time, enabling them to coordinate first responders on site and provide instructions for an effective emergency response. This is made possible, among other things, by the system’s extensive integration with critical infrastructure such as hospitals and emergency response organisations.
