Disasters Warning

NATURAL AND MAN MADE DISASTERS WARNING

Nuclear, Biological and Chemical Threat Early Warning System

This system, which uses the ELPAM EL3000 high-powered electronic siren, provides acoustic early warning in states of emergency, such as threat of nuclear, biological or chemical outbreak. The solution includes monitoring, detection, warning and audio broadcasts. In the event of an emergency, these systems deliver a warning message to all residents in the threatened areas.

Volcanic Eruption Warning System

Volcanic eruptions can be predicted by this system, which monitors seismic activity and recognizes increased levels of Sulphur dioxide and decreased pressure of magma as it nears the surface. When there is an imminent threat of a volcanic eruption, the system sounds a siren and broadcasts an advisory to residents to take immediate safety precautions. The solution includes both the sensors and the siren systems. Monitoring and detection can be performed through a national or local network of sensors that are connected to the siren system.

Flood Early-Warning Systems

This system monitors the water level of the relevant river at different points, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. The system can identify an increase or decrease in water level and flow rate of the river. That information is sent in real time to a central command controller, typically the entity charged with prevention and management of local disasters, which will activate sirens to alert communities living near the river bank. The sirens and audio broadcasts can reach communities at distances of up to a five-mile radius. Broadcast warnings should be provided in English as well as the local language.

Landslides & Snow Avalanches Early Warning and Monitoring System

This comprehensive system can be installed in hazardous areas to detect avalanches, warn approaching motorists, and alert maintenance personnel working in the area. Comprised of a sensor assembly, a radio communication system and a controller, the system is installed on automatic weather stations and in danger zones. Alarms are transmitted via radio, Internet, outdoor siren system, SMS or modem by phone call. Monitoring and detection can be performed through a national or local network of sensors that are connected to a siren system.
