Mass Notification for Chemical Manufacturing Facilities
Chemical manufacturing facilities are high-risk environments that face accidents and unpredictable emergencies. From loud machinery to widespread environments, facility managers and staff need peace of mind knowing they can easily send and receive life-saving alerts during an emergency.
With a comprehensive mass notification solution like the Alertus System, chemical manufacturing facilities can keep their community safe, minimize production disruptions, and rapidly disseminate emergency information to their entire facility for any circumstance—from severe weather to hazardous chemical exposure.
Innovative Crisis Communication Tools
Mitigate harm and reduce injury risk by implementing a mass notification system (MNS) to share critical information. Alertus offers innovative notification devices for critical and non-critical communication with all or select groups throughout chemical manufacturing facilities.
Activation Buttons
Activate life-saving alerts directly from the floor in case of a catastrophic accident at a single point.
Alert Beacon®
Capture in-building attention from a distance with bright strobes and clear emergency tone sounders. This ADA-compliant device displays a message about the emergency and how to respond appropriately.
High Power Speaker Array (HPSA)
Deploy emergency communications and announcements about exposures via outdoor warning systems and how to proceed.
Omni-directional Speakers
Deliver zoneable distinct tones and enhance communication with intelligible spoken-voice announcements to inform building occupants of the emergency and how to respond.
Common Chemical Manufacturing Use-Cases
If not addressed immediately, chemical spills, burns, and inhalation can be extremely harmful and dangerous. The Alertus System allows you to alert everyone about the exposure and provide clear instructions on how to proceed.
In cases of severe weather, don’t rely on severe weather warnings from a weather radio or mobile device. Mitigate harm and significantly reduce emergency response times by activating all emergency endpoints with a button click.
Implement a Comprehensive Solution
The Alertus System easily integrates with your existing communication system to create a multilayered, seamless emergency response.
Visual Signaling
Communicate an emergency without saying a word. As an Alert Beacon® peripheral device or when connected to an Alertus IP Relay Module, these zoneable units expand your organization’s visual alerting capabilities over a broader area.
LED Marquee
Driven by the Alert Beacon, this device instantly notifies indoor employees about emergencies or regular announcements by displaying easy-to-read, actionable messages at a distance in loud environments.
Digital Signage Override
Override existing displays with customized, full-screen alert messages to spread awareness of incidents in widespread areas. This software-based application is part of the Alertus System and integrates seamlessly with wall-mounted Alert Beasons to ensure a unified emergency response.
