Man Down Detector
Man Down Detector
Slips, Trips and Falls continue to be the main cause of workplace injuries - accounting for 53% of all non-fatal injuries. In these situations, knowing if an injury has occurred and sending help to the location quickly can mean the difference between life and death for your most vulnerable employees.
The most reliable and efficient way to keep lone workers safe is with a Man Down Detector solution. These systems can be found as an extra feature on many lone worker devices or can be added as an integrated solution to any device that already has the safety features your team need.
Man Down Detectors are based on sensor technology that continuously monitors the user’s movement and if they are motionless for a certain amount of time, a pre-alarm sound is emitted. The user can shake the device to cancel this alarm if it is not required, or they can simply push any button to disable it entirely.
They can also be set to send a notification to the user’s phone if they have no movement, and a loud audio beacon is also emitted from the radio to help locate them (GPS can support this too). The system automatically sends notifications to all communication devices when man down alarms are triggered.
They are designed with intelligent algorithms to detect when a worker needs help. They also have a low false-alarm rate, short response time and good ergonomics. man down alarm
