substation visual alarm monitoring

Our Solar Powered Mobile Video Surveillance Trailers—when utilized in a substation environment—are one of the most efficient and effective ways to ensure that your premises are secure, equipment is functioning correctly and your staff is safe. It involves the use of cameras and motion detectors to monitor areas within the substation in real time. Having the added bonus of being mobile, makes it deployable in a wide range of situations and terrains. Easily being adjusted or portioned based on need, and coverage area.

According to the latest statistics from the National Insurance Crime Bureau which tracks incidents of metal theft, 25,083 claims were filed from 2009 to 2012, compared with 13,861 from 2006 to 2008. Nearly 96 percent of the claims in the more recent period were for copper theft. Due to the high value of the various components found in a substation, especially, copper cables, transformers, busbars, and batteries, to name a few. And, with the above-stated increase in criminal incidents around substations in recent times, targeting those components, a top-of-the-line Visual alarm monitoring system becomes a vital part of any substation operations.

Our Solar Powered Mobile Video Surveillance Trailers—when utilized in a substation environment—are one of the most efficient and effective ways to ensure that your premises are secure, equipment is functioning correctly and your staff is safe. It involves the use of cameras and motion detectors to monitor areas within the substation in real time. Having the added bonus of being mobile, makes it deployable in a wide range of situations and terrains. Easily being adjusted or portioned based on need, and coverage area. It allows operators to quickly identify and respond to potential problems, threats, and theft. VAM systems use cameras and other visual sensors to monitor equipment and the surrounding environment. They can provide real-time information about conditions inside and outside the substation.

We believe in a Zero-Compromise solution. And to achieve this we understand that our visual alarm monitoring system has to not just be functional but exceptional. We have built a robust system that takes several factors into account. First, our system is designed to monitor key areas within the substation, which can further be optimized with assistance from our team and higher unit deployments. Next, it transmits real-time alarm information that can be accessed remotely. Our system also provides audio and/or visual alarms that can trigger notifications to local police and law enforcement dispatching them to the scene. Last but not least, our Solar Powered Mobile Video Surveillance Trailers have the ability to log and reset after each incident and continue protecting the substation, thereby providing long-term security coverage.

 

Another key feature of our Solar Powered Mobile Video Surveillance Trailer is the “Mobile” function found within its name. This allows for the strategic placement of our monitoring system at the exact location needed within the substation plus this can be moved or adjusted with minimal effort to allow for micro adjustment to the surveillance field. This makes our system perfect for remote substations that are in hard-to-reach places or have complicated terrains. With the wheels and trailer hook, our trailers can be migrated from one site to another as needed plus once deployed, the stability pins and legs ensure that it stays exactly where its placed.

 

The inbuilt solar array and battery power system also ensure that the unit is always up and running and does not have to rely on an external power supply to function. As a self-sustained system with a hard metallic body structure, it is resistant to external forces such as human tampering and natural occurrences such as weather. This means that it can be deployed at the required substation for a prolonged period of time.
