SAN JOSE, CA, Apr 11, 2012 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) --
RAE Systems, the leader in connected gas and radiation detection
solutions, today announced its ProRAE Guardian Real-time Wireless
Safety System for emergency responder, military and national security
customers. The Wireless Safety System provides wireless delivery of
real-time data on toxic gases and radiation combined with the
physiological status of emergency responders.
The ProRAE Guardian System helps reduce incident response times and
enhance safety in a broad range of applications including: HazMat and
emergency response, CBRNe agent detection (chemical, biological,
radiological, nuclear and explosive), homeland security, police, bomb
disposal, public venue protection and fire service.
The new ProRAE Guardian Real-time Wireless Safety System provides
unsurpassed responder safety and helps emergency responders better
protect communities and ensure hazardous materials regulation
compliance.
Real-time Information is Critical for Emergency Responders
When
disaster strikes, incident commanders are tasked with making
critical, split-second decisions. RAE Systems' ProRAE Guardian
Real-time Wireless Safety System allows first responders to set up a
rapidly deployable, secure wireless threat detection system that
encompasses a broad range of RAE Systems' and approved third-party
personal, survey and area monitors to detect and track:
-- Toxic Industrial Chemicals (TICs/TIMs)
-- Flammable gases
-- Chemical Warfare Agents (CWA)
-- Radiation
-- Meteorological conditions
-- GPS-based location information
-- Physiological condition of responders
ProRAE Guardian Wireless Safety System Delivers a Real-time Mobile
Command Center
The ProRAE Guardian Real-time Wireless Safety System
facilitates faster, data-driven decision-making that helps responders
save lives and assets. Situational data obtained by multiple
responder teams can be instantaneously shared securely through the
Internet to aid mission control, simplify the coordination of joint
operations and allow remote experts to be added to the operation in
real time.
The RAE Systems ProRAE Guardian Real-time Wireless Safety System now
supports the company's portable ToxiRAE Pro single-gas monitors,
MultiRAE multi-threat detectors, GammaRAE II R radiation detectors,
AreaRAE transportable multi-gas and radiation instruments, BioHarness
biometric device and approved third-party instruments. This further
enhances the scope of connected threat detection tools available to
emergency responders and CBRNe community.
RAE Systems' wireless monitors automatically transmit real-time
sensor data and alarms to ProRAE Guardian. This allows emergency
responders to focus on their jobs and eliminate the need to report
readings over the radio. The System also provides incident commanders
an objective picture of a responder's physiological condition. The
System is also compatible with optional PlumeRAE plume modeling and
HazRAE hazardous material decision-support software to increase
public and emergency responder safety. Every instrument that is part
of the ProRAE Guardian Real-time Wireless Safety System has been
certified as suitable for use in CSA Class I, Division 1 or
ATEX/IECEx Zone 1 hazardous locations.
"Real-time remote access and use of incident information should be a
necessary safety component of HazMat response and CBRNe detection
operations," stated Thomas Negre, Vice President of Products and
Marketing for RAE Systems. "RAE Systems has been leading the way in
wireless gas and radiation detection for more than a decade. The
company has delivered proven solutions to the emergency responder and
CBRNe communities for remote monitoring of threat data in real time
for faster decision-making."
