New Live Monitoring Tools for Gas Detection

When

9/20/17 12:00 pm to 1:00 pm CDT

Event Description

Safety leaders are demanding more visibility into where workers are located and what hazards they are encountering in the field. Real-time situational awareness of gas hazards is especially important for protecting lone workers who work in isolation without direct supervision or fellow coworkers nearby. Join us for a discussion on how live monitoring technology can enhance your gas detection program. We will discuss how to overcome the challenges of getting data from the field in real time and how to capture actionable information about gas, panic and man-down alerts. We will discuss the technology, features, benefits and applications of live monitoring software as well as provide a demonstration of how live monitoring software works.
