Forward Vision CCTV is celebrating the successful installation of the fist ever ATEX certified (explosion-proof)
The client was looking for a robust and reliable process management tool to help meet rigorous on-site health and safety regimes, and experts Eclipse Digital Solutions - an approved FVCCTV installer - was called in to evaluate the brief and make appropriate recommendations.
Eclipse Digital Solutions recommended 2 Forward Vision (FVCCTV) ‘Metal Mickeys’ – widely regarded as the most robust range of cameras on the market for hazardous and high-end specialist environments. Two new metal ‘Mickeys’ were installed (Mic1-440). These leading edge technology cameras are ATEX certified, meaning they are certified safe for use in explosive atmospheres, to EU Directive 94/9/EC IIC T6. This is the first installation anywhere in the UK of this ATEX certified Mic1-440 camera. Another member of the ‘Mickey’ range has already been used to great effect in several other high profile and hazardous situations.
The Metal Mickey, which comes in a range of different finishes and models for different specific environments, is precision engineered to the highest standards. At the UK client’s site, the pair of ‘Mickeys’ now provide virtual access to the processor plant, giving a 24/7 process management overview, displayed onto live screens and desktop PCs in multiple positions around the site. The FVCCTV Mickeys link into a Geutebruck DDR CCTV system utilising a BBV control protocol, which allows all on-site cameras to be controlled from one point if required – either in the UK or on the continent. The client said: “There is zero room for error in potentially explosive environments and we need to know that we are investing in the best health and safety technology that money can buy. The ATEX certified FVCCTV ‘Mickey’ not only fulfils that fundamental requirement, it also offers us enhanced functionality which delivers real business management benefits. The ‘Mickey’s’
Alan Drinkwater of Eclipse Digital Solutions, said: “We are naturally delighted to be the first ever installer of an ATEX certified FVCCTV ‘Mickey’ in the UK. FVCCTV has yet again delivered a world class product to market and we are looking forward to many more enquiries about the Mickey from a range of specialist organisations and sectors.”
