Real Time Location System (RTLS)
Worker Location Tracking and Assets Management
For companies operating in hazardous areas, being able to accurately locate personnel and assets in real time improves worker safety, increases productivity and reduces lost time. Extronics Real Time Location System (RTLS) solution is individually tailored to suit your application, using these basic building blocks:
- Active RFID tags
- Tag Exciters
- Software
- Wireless access points
The exact components may vary, depending on the type of site, size of project, and required system capabilities – for example, man down alerting or tightly defined location accuracy. Extronics tags and tag exciters are available in ATEX, IECEx and North American hazardous area certified models as well as industrial models, so you can use the same system across the whole of your site safely.
WORKER SAFETY
Inefficiency and risk often stem from a lack of knowledge. Extronics RTLS solutions provide real-time information about the location of workers, as well as data on their well-being, to give you the knowledge you need to make the right decisions in a timely manner.
MAN DOWN
Aeroscout iTAG X-Range has a built-in accelerometer to detect if a person has fallen from height. If the person is unconscious and unable to press the emergency call button an automatic emergency response event is sent to Mobile-view to inform first responders of their location.
AUTOMATIC MUSTERING
In an evacuation scenario, personnel are mustered to specific gathering points where the Evacuation Monitoring application automatically monitors which workers have reached safety as they arrive – and can also detect if a worker should leave the muster point. Quickly identify non-mustered workers and send help directly to their current location to speed up response times.
SOCIAL DISTANCING & CONTACT TRACING
Proximity alerts ensure all personnel maintain a safe working distance. Aeroscout Location Selector (ELS) software allows you to act quickly and minimise downtime. Users can run reports from the ELS to see who an infected individual has been in contact with and for how long.
SECURITY
Contractors and visitors are often unaware of security procedures or hazards requiring extra attention. Aeroscout worker location solutions track contractors across your site, giving you added visibility, accountability and increased security.
ACCOUNTABILITY
Ensuring personnel are where they need to be when they need to be there, can save time and money. Aeroscout RTLS solutions is supported by custom reporting via the MobileView platform to improve processes and workflows.
