CEO CORNER Smart Cities: Need for smart & fire safe infrastructure With most modern cities opting for vertical solution for housing and corporate space, the next challenge faced by firefighters is to match the growth. With a plan of 100 smart cities rolled out by the government, fire safety mechanism has to be embedded seamlessly in the planning. With the passage of time, we see more and more steel and glass buildings that many a times prove inefficient for venting smoke that is the primary reason for death (asphyxiation) due to fire. The swanky buildings might not have matching ventilation system or water management system that could be used by fire brigades at the time of fire emergency. smart cities would require smart buildings. The first requirement is strict adherence to prevailing laws and its monitoring. We have found non-maintenance of the fire safety systems and quality control to be the major issues at the moment. The initiative has to start with building design with proper vertical spacing and stairwells keeping an eye on emergency situation and use of material that is resistant to fire. Thanks to the Internet of Things fast becoming a reality – made possible by the wide array of smart devices populating our workplaces and homes – the future vision of a city completely interconnected, with every conceivable service available at the touch of a button, has never seemed so achievable. By incorporating cutting-edge information and communication technologies into their essential infrastructure, “smart cities” have the potential to streamline the provision of services, from transport and waste management, to education and leisure. In doing so, they offer the potential to do more than boost the efficiency of public services, reduce waste and energy consumption. They give urban planners the ability to make cities even more liveable for the people inhabiting them, enhancing their health and wellbeing. While this broad understanding of the smart city concept has been accepted universally, there is still considerable debate as to the extent to which an urban development can be considered “smart”. With more and more towns and cities around the world incorporating some elements of the smart city vision into their infrastructure, like active traffic management or streamlined emergency response, the concept is now raising more questions than answers, particularly when it comes to life safety.

Recently, the Clean Air team of Ador Powertron showcased the simple innovation and high performance of the Ador+Redkoh Vedika technology in five different plants including clinker cooler ESPs and CPP ESPs. These are some of the most important plants in India viz. Ambuja Cement Rabariyawas Unit, Maratha Unit, Dariaghat Unit, and Bhatapara Unit (Cooler ESP Line 1 & 2). Ador reduced their existing emission levels from the plants’ earlier values to the committed (and aspired) values of minimum 25% emission reduction and at the some sits achieved a maximum of 75% emission reduction. This incredible environmental protection victory shows that the performance of the Ador High Frequency Power Supply (HFPS) not only enhances the efficiency of Electro-Static Precipitators in the cement industry but also in the power generation field. Ador was able to prove that the Vedika Solution for high Standard Particulate Matter (SPM) can provide better opacity at lesser investment cost and even far lesser effort than adding extra ESP fields or other electrical

/ mechanical solutions. More importantly, all of this can be achieved without even asking for a process shutdown.

Vedika gives the end user a pristine air quality experience due to the edge it has, catalyzed by the following ways: • A suitable waveform to the TR set in order to minimize the ESP Ripple • Increased average voltage to the ESP • Increased current flow to the ESP • Fast Response Time to events occurring in both the ESP and the Power system • Possesses all the benefits of the tried and trusted Transformer Rectifier Design • Significantly high-power capacities

INDUSTRIAL SAFETY REVIEW | JANUARY 2018

• Improvement in the power factor • Reuse of the existing cabling, control rooms and Mechanical TR footprints • No duct work modifications • Provides a solution rather than a one-fits-all product • The electrical energization with High Frequency Power Sources and the same boiler conditions may lead to emission reduction to the tune of 30-50% without any ESP renovation for addition of fields or increase in the height in all of the coal fired power stations in India by utilizing high resistivity and high ash content coal from the Indian mines Industrial enterprises are today under constant pressure to reduce gaseous and particulate

emissions from their processes. The Ador Clean Air team has produced and supplied the largest number of TransformerRectifier sets and controls worldwide. Over 20,000 Ador High Voltage Transformer Rectifiers have been installed with the power, cement, steel and paper industries across 74 countries over the last 35 years. Ador Transformers use software designed by Ador and also are able to incorporate OEM management and control software.

“Security systems have been mandated for installations” security products. This has also given a sigh of relief to small traders who are into computer system integration by way of sudden avenues for revenue along with additional products range. I need to tell you this specifically when the margins from computer market now have controlling influences. There is a growing market size for the security system verticals. I would feel the present mandatory trend acts as the growth drivers for this market and this would lead to potential and advanced security solutions in our country. I happen to read a record of 26% growth in between 2010 and 2015 and it may be doubled by 2020. By and large, this is a fast growing market currently. T. S. Raghuram (a) Sunil Director, S4 Technology

Q. In your opinion, what is the state of security industry in India and what is the trend you see in the space? Security System Integration is poised for a fantastic growth especially in the new-age security market. Like in your computers and networking markets earlier, you could find the big names in the systems manufacturing and OEMs on cameras, fire detection, access control, alarm systems and other special devices and at the other end, you could find the fragmented dealers, traders, and computer sellers adding these as new lines of products into their assembly of business. More than the essential products, today security systems have been mandated for installations in Government Departments, Corporate Companies, residential complex, individual bungalows, hospitals, transportation, educational institutions, and in public stations. In the last decade, there has been a considerable growth and especially in the last couple of years, there is a booming demand creating a new business model and market share for the

INDUSTRIAL SAFETY REVIEW | JANUARY 2018

Q. Which market are you targeting? I am in the category of IT-SME. My approach would always be towards the growing sector along with my primary IT Infrastructure Solutions. Electronic Security market has imbibed the effect of IT infrastructure installations and therefore, it would be an additional business line with a new baton in hand.

Q. What are the various security related products that you offer? We handle various security products like IP based Video Surveillance cameras, Fire alarms, Door access controls, Network management switches, Video Door phones, Digital Door locks, Etc….)

Q. What is the advantage of Matrix products vis-à-vis the competition? Matrix is a SUBSTANCE brand. Substance is in the DNA of Matrix solutions. Substance in the form of technology, depth, genuineness and going beyond the mere outer façade and offer more values in all the areas. This is what differentiates Matrix from the lot. Matrix solutions are packed with ‘More’. More productivity,

more applications, more flexibility, more functions, more features, more cost saving, more reliability and more support. Matrix positioning is based on offering more of these true inherent values, which customers expect from infrastructure solutions.

Our existing customers are my primary aim, as most of them have created the new request on our services for these new product lines. As I mentioned, the awareness of security products have given an alarming rise in the last few years. So, it’s my turn to provide solutions from their home security to their workplace security. Links through customers are the major advantages and that has created the new avenues of business. From the beginning, our strategy is to ‘prove it on quality service’ and that is begetting new businesses for us. At the same time, we need to formulate a strategy with a new approach by next year after meeting our demands in the forthcoming months.

Q. What are the challenges that you are currently facing in India? As a SME system integrator, we can handle all types of technical challenges. However, the installations of security cameras in remote areas, especially in forests and in some of the high-raised buildings or towers could always alert us on our safety. Those are occupational perils, but they can be managed with the perfect process. Like we all SMEs say, the ‘credit facility’ and ‘the delay in payments’ will always pose challenges and at times, turn out to be threats. Otherwise, the challenges are only technical strategies and budget planning.

Effective safety is moving

‘BEYOND ZERO’

ne can take the horse to the water but making it drink is another story; it certainly is so with safety in the workplace in the Indian scheme of things, especially in the ECA space. “The most important problem is the absence of top management engagement with safety practices, which tend to begin and end with personal protection issues,” points out A. K. Kulkarni, Trainer with the National Safety Council India. Considering that safety is first a matter of human lives and then a matter of profits, it is important that safety management and practices be absolutely integrated with all general management and operational aspects of running a small business, in particular. This is not a message that has permeated down the Indian workspace. India ranks second when it comes to workplace accidents and illnesses. In fact, the International Labour Organisation (ILO) reports that globally, every 15 seconds, 153 workers meet with an accident at the workplace. The ECA space is particularly vulnerable; more so in India; and doubly so because the ECAs are gearing up to become the backbone of the Make in India mission. In a report on safety, “The future of health and safety; Moving beyond Zero”, Ernst & Young emphasized that safety should be viewed as an outcome of business culture and strategy rather than a process. This means that the language around health and safety should change to drive powerful

conversations in an ambience in which the employee is considered to be the solution, not the cause of an indifferent safety culture. The report exhorts managements to “give employees the power and opportunity to be part of the process; be open to making mistakes and learning from those mistakes; think creatively and be open to new ideas; make the connections between health and safety, and productivity and efficiency”. Essentially the need is to embed health and safety in strategic leadership thinking in an atmosphere that establishes trust. Global studies have by and large, zeroed in on some characteristics of safety management systems in ECAs that are far removed from what is advised : • The use of oral rather than written communications • Dependence on personal contacts, such as on suppliers, for information • Limited knowledge of OHS Acts, Regulations and Codes of Practice • A tendency to treat OHS and injury responsibility with a belief that the agents (such as chemicals) being worked with are not dangerous • Workers’ poor knowledge of health effects – in particular long term health effects • Hazard controls decided by custom and practice and not by risk assessment It is conceded that ECA owners who do not

have the benefit of large establishments often have work overload making it dificult even to deal with core issues and safety tends to get relegated to the non-core space. “Key factors affecting safety management in ECAs have been identified as: low level of management and training skills, lack of resources, burden of compliance with regulations and codes, etc., poor relationship with regulatory agencies, cost of using OHS consultants, dependency on large businesses and, dificulties in implementing and understanding good safety practices”, point out L. Stephen, K. B. Olsen, S. L. Ian and P. Hasle. What applies to the global scene applies to India as well. Two important drivers of safety in Indian companies “would be involvement of the top management and focused site-specific safety measures”, says A.K. Kulkarni. First there is the paramount need to “make safety audits mandatory but it is even more important for the top management to receive the audit report and peruse it seriously. “

1. Creating an organizational leadership structure that fosters a culture passionate about health, safety and wellness Ultimately an organization’s culture should ensure that its workers go home safe and healthy, while also satisfied from a good day’s work and proud of what they have

INDUSTRIAL SAFETY REVIEW | JANUARY 2018

INDUSTRY FOCUS

There is also the need for training programmes but everything falls through for want of implementation. “This happens because safety is relegated to the middle management and even when safety audits are conducted by the National Safety Council, there is little follow up. Training programmes and safety audits are not magic wands,” says Kulkarni. They are just the first steps in driving a safety culture. Such a culture is violated when, even when one is handling material mechanically with a crane but there is a group of workers standing just below the lifted load.

The World Economic Forum provides six elementary but key areas for health, safety and wellness have been proven to create the kind of culture and environment that saves lives and increases overall worker welfare. These are by no means exhaustive though they do encompass wide and important sets of policies. These are detailed alongside.

INDUSTRIAL SAFETY REVIEW | JANUARY 2018

achieved. To assure physical well-being, there can only be a zero-tolerance approach with respect to occupational health and safety issues. The key is to set the right example: an organization’s leadership has to demonstrate that no single job is worth a loss of life, injury or disease. They have to place key values – such as empathy, respect and ethical communication – at the centre of the organization, while creating an environment of trust and integrity, perhaps via a clear, effective and enforced code of conduct.

2. Establishing governance, engagement and dialogue for health, safety and wellness awareness It is important to establish a governance and engagement protocol, with open collaboration between employer and workers to discuss and address problems, and proactively channel grievances. By asking workers to engage in steering committees, action teams and observation teams, they will not only identify and prevent hazards, but will generate a feeling of a protective organization.

3. Well-being through advanced technology While there are many possible implications of new technology for labour, with respect to safety and health it is possible to anticipate a number of opportunities. Advanced technologies could indeed increase worker wellness by removing work hazards and easing physical exertion.

In the context of elderly workers, these technologies could include a so-called “super-strength operator”, where a human being wears a powered, fiexible and mobile exoskeleton. Other examples of humanmachine interfaces are: augmented and virtual operators; healthy operators, such as wearable health sensors and trackers; smart operators connected to intelligent personal assistants (IPA); collaborative operators, who train and work with collaborative robots; social operators, who tap into a business’s online networking services; as well as analytical operators, who use big data analytics. As these advances in technology continue, there are already innovations that can be applied today, allowing workers to not only remove or protect themselves from hazardous circumstances, but also to potentially become more efficient. All construction industries have the opportunity to advance the use of technology and, as a result, make workforce engagement safer.

4. Well-being through stability and security The right to social security is recognized as a human right refiected in the societal commitment to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights: “Everyone, as a member of society, has the right to social security and is entitled to realization, through national effort and international co-operation and in accordance withe organization and resources of each state, of the economic, social and cultural rights indispensable for

Innovative approaches that promote inclusive growth, reduce income inequality, introduce alternative security models (basic income, for example) will ensure that future employment will contribute substantially to the well-being of humanity.

5. Well-being through professional development There is a mutual reinforcement between

professional development, on the one side; and safety and health, on the other. It is important that safety and health is included as an integral part of training schemes throughout professional careers. At the same time, improved safety and health will help companies attract talent. To be successful in attracting the right talent, offering fiexibility and a sufficient work-life balance are essential.

6. Specific actions for ensuring mental and emotional well-being We often underestimate the importance of psychological and emotional health in the workplace. Mental and emotional wellbeing is essential to overall health: positive mental health allows people to realize their full potential, cope with the stresses of life,

work productively and make meaningful contributions to their communities.

5G Implications for Security Video Surveillance & Safe Cities

G networks will bring a whole new array of opportunities to the security industry. The faster and more robust network would mean more connected and autonomous devices and systems, as well as better quality images and faster streaming. Video surveillance and ‘Internet of Things’ are tied together, as products such as cameras and recorders have predominantly moved to IP and are connected together on the Internet. Gathering information through analytics will become more main stream, as the data produced will provide more information and more knowledge. This will also help organizations evolve better business strategy plans.

5G Wireless Networks – City Surveillance Deployment of fibre optic cable is sometimes not an option, either due to budget constraints or due to the difficulty in excavation especially in downtown areas. In such cases a wireless network is the only option.

INDUSTRIAL SAFETY REVIEW | JANUARY 2018

Besides, this can be installed quickly and with minimal disturbance. However, wireless security networks that are presently being used to protect our cities are over burdened and congested. More often than not, consumers and security devices are often relying on the same wireless frequencies despite having very different needs and consequences. A security network requires the highest level of connectivity, speed and reliability. This network cannot afford to be slowed down because consumers are downloading the latest movies! Further the deployment of high definition cameras and network-based management platforms with safe/smart city security applications are adding to the congestion. This adds more traffic to an already over taxed network. 5G networks will bring a whole new array of opportunities to the security industry. The faster and more robust network would mean more connected and autonomous devices and systems, as well as better quality images and

faster streaming. Gathering information through analytics will become more main stream, as the data produced will provide more information, more knowledge. Recently, a City required multi-gigabit connectivity to support over 45 high definition, multi-sensor and PTZ cameras that were being deployed throughout the downtown area. It was possible to deploy, over 50 mm Wave radios in less than a month to provide huge amounts of uninterrupted bandwidth for its wireless surveillance network.

5G Smart City The full potential of Smart Cities will be unlocked by 5G networks and small cells. The Smart City applications currently leveraging today’s wireless networks are already showing significant benefits to communities. Building on the foundation of 4G LTE, 5G will accelerate these Smart City benefits. The next generation of wireless network infrastructure will be built using small-cell networks employing 5G

wireless technology. The connectivity and computing capacity unleashed by these high-speed wireless networks will bring the power of Smart City solutions to municipalities across the country. This can transform local economies. Research has suggested that Smart City solutions applied to the management of vehicle traffic and electrical grids could produce $160 billion in benefits and savings through reductions in energy usage, traffic congestion and fuel costs. These 5G attributes will enable cities to reduce commute times, improve public safety and generate significant smart grid efficiencies. The concept of a Smart City is gaining momentum. It is growing extensively in the Asia Pacific region, and it will spearhead the next cycle of e-Government evolution. Singapore is a lead example of this phenomenon, wherein IoT deployments are being implemented through its Smart Nation program, and we will see this happen throughout Asia as massive urbanization makes the continent a hotspot for smart city deployments. In India, which is on the brink of an urban revolution, one in every two Indians is expected to live in urban areas by 2050. This migration is creating an increasing need for basic services such as sanitation, waste management, street

lighting, surveillance, and even Wi-Fi access, presenting a huge opportunity for the government to urbanise India. It is believed that better, smarter urban growth could be an economic opportunity for India worth up to 6% of GDP by the middle of this century. Most Governments face budget constraints. The solution therefore lies in enabling multiple solutions on a single platform that provides optimal urban coverage. The Greater Noida Industrial Development Authority (GNIDA) is planning to install ‘smart poles’ across the city. This integrated lamp post will be equipped with CCTV cameras, LED lights, and Wi-Fi routers, and occupy marginal physical space. Installing the country’s public transportation system with sensors can also enable the government to improve connectivity in urban areas. Madhya Pradesh, the state with the highest amount of funds allocated for Smart Cities among other states, is looking at an intelligent public transportation system that not only ensures optimised bus routes, but also provides a better sense of resource management to the administration.

Challenges – for the Security Industry • Storage issues to manage data. • Hardware compatibility for 5G.

Future The launch of 5G may be a big motivator for more advanced equipment to appear in security. It is believed, that if the correct infrastructure is put in place, unlike when 1G, 2G and 3G were devised, it will be based on a flexible platform that can be upgraded. It will not require replacement. In years past, mobile data technologies were built around hardware, while 5G will be software driven. Software can be updated easily, hardware less so.

Safety in Welding By S.K. Palit, Head-CCC & Strategic Support - Equipment, SGP & WAPS, Ador Welding Ltd.

afety is a critical consideration for any welding project. Arc welding is a safe occupation when proper precautions are taken. But, if safety measures are ignored, welders face an array of hazards which can be potentially dangerous, including electric shock, fumes and gases, fire and explosions and more. Welders are members of an occupational group which is exposed to a number of different environmental problems: • Electricity • Electromagnetic fields • UV, IR and visible light radiation • Air pollution • Fire and Spatter • Noise • Ergonomics To help keep welders safe, organizations such as the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) offer safety guidelines to help control, minimize or to help employers and workers avoid welding hazards. Employers should ensure all workers have an opportunity to comply with the following important guidelines in the workplace: • Read and understand manufacturer instructions for equipment • Carefully review material safety data sheets

INDUSTRIAL SAFETY REVIEW | JANUARY 2018

It’s important to remember to never touch the electrode or metal parts of the electrode holder with skin or welding clothing and insulate yourself from the work and ground.

• Follow the company’s internal safety practices • Awareness of the most common welding hazards and knowing how to avoid them ensures a safe, productive work environment for all.

Electric shock Electric shock is one of the most serious and immediate risks facing a welder. Electric shock can lead to severe injury or death, either from the shock itself or from a fall caused by the reaction to a shock. Electric shock occurs when welders touch two metal objects that have a voltage between them, thereby inserting themselves into the electrical circuit. For instance, if a worker holds a bare wire in one hand and a second bare wire with another, electric current will pass through that wire and through the welding operator, causing an electric shock. The higher the voltage, the higher the current and, thus the higher the risk for the electric shock to result in injury or death. The most common type of electric shock is secondary voltage shock from an arc welding circuit, which ranges from 20 to 100 volts. Bear in mind that even a shock of 50 volts or less can be enough to injure or kill an operator, depending on the conditions. Due to its constant change in

polarity, alternating current (AC) voltage is more likely to stop the heart than direct current (DC) welders. It is also more likely to make the person holding the wire unable to let go. To avoid secondary voltage shock, welding operators should wear dry gloves in good condition, never touch the electrode or metal parts of the electrode holder with skin or wet clothing and be sure to insulate themselves from the work and ground, keeping dry insulation between their body and the metal being welded or ground (such as a metal floor or wet surface). ADOR Welding Limited (AWL) offers a wide range of PPE (Personal Protective Equipment), like Welding Gloves, Safety Shoes and other safety products to ensure the welders’ safety. In addition, AWL offers VRD (Voltage Reducing Device) as a built-in feature as an option, and also VRD Units which can be fitted externally to any AC or DC SMAW Welding machine, which keeps the secondary voltage down to a safe level of 18-20 V when no welding is being done (machine switched on, but in idle condition). Full welding power is automatically enabled whenever the welder strikes the welding arc. An even more serious shock, primary voltage shock, may occur when a welder touches electrically “hot” or “live” parts inside the welder case or the electric distribution system to which the welder is connected. This action can lead to a shock of 230 or 415 volts. AWL offers ELCB as an option in their welding machines to completely eliminate this hazard.

Fumes and gases Overexposure to welding fumes and gases can be hazardous to the health of the welder as well as any other person who is working in the vicinity of the welding area. Welding fume contains potentially harmful

complex metal oxide compounds from consumables, base metal and the basemetal coatings, so it is important to keep the head out of the fumes and use enough ventilation and/or exhaust to control the exposure to substances in the fume, depending on the type of rod and base metal being used. The specific potential health effects which relate to the welding consumable product being used can be found in the Health Hazard Data section of the Safety Data Sheet available from the consumable manufacturer. Welding areas require adequate ventilation and local exhaust to keep fumes and gases from the breathing zone and the general area. In most situations, a ventilation system- such as a fan, and an exhaust system or fixed or removable exhaust hoods- to remove fumes and gases from the work area are provided. AWL has introduced in their range different models of Welding Fume extraction systems, both stand-alone as well as centralized systems (KING EXTRACTORS), with advanced technology, special filters and with or without built-in compressors

Fire and explosions Welding arc creates extreme temperatures, and may pose a significant fire and

explosions hazard if safe practices are not followed. While the welding arc may reach temperatures of 10,000 degrees Fahrenheit, the real danger is not from the arc itself, but rather the intense near the arc and the heat, sparks and spatter created by the arc. This spatter can reach up to 35 feet away from the welding space. To prevent fires, before beginning to weld, inspect the work area for any flammable materials and remove them from the area. Flammable materials are comprised of three categories: liquid, such as gasoline, oil and paint; solid, such as wood, cardboard and paper; gas, including acetylene, propane and hydrogen.

Ergonomics When welding heavy material manually

Special attachments and extensions to interconnection cables reduce welder fatigue for welding at long distances from the Power Source

Rotators are used to rotate a job with circular or cylindrical profile to help the welder consistently without changing his position and welding torch angle continuously

and during assembly welding the loads are very static. Positioning welding also gives high loads. Ergonomic control of Welderâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s position, arrangement of rotating tables (rotators and turn tables) is important to reduce welder fatigue and chances of poor weld quality.

Other safety considerations Welders should also be aware of other safety considerations within the work environment. For example, those working in a confined space or in an elevated area make need to take extra precautions. In any welding situation, welding operators should pay close attention safety information on the products being used and the material safety data sheets provided by the manufacturer and work with their employer and co-workers to follow appropriate safe practices for their workplace. Good common sense is also key. If opening cans of electrode, keep hands away from sharp edges. Remove clutter and debris from the welding area to prevent tripping or falling. And never use broken or damaged equipment or PPE. To keep up with the most recent safety practices, welding operators should utilize resources from the American Welding Society (AWS), OSHA and welding manufacturers. By following these safe practices and using common sense, operators can stay safe and keep production moving with no lost-time accidents. Safety & Health Fact Sheets are provided in the ANSI Z49.1 Standards.

FLIR Thermal Imaging Cameras help Mühldorf county fire departments deliver first-class firefighting services

Thermal imaging cameras (TIC) for firefighters used to be bulky, expensive and generally unreachable for small voluntary fire departments, of which the German state of Bavaria has so many. Fortunately, with the latest developments in thermal imaging technology, TICs like FLIR’s K50 camera, have become extremely attractive and affordable, even for small fire brigades. The fire department of the German city of Mühldorf has recently discovered the many benefits of FLIR’s firefighting camera.

he Mühldorf county fire department is a modern and professional team that takes the protection and security of its citizens very seriously. With an average of 3500 interventions per year, the several Mühldorf fire teams are responsible for a primary sector of 107,800 inhabitants, including Mühldorf county, as well as several adjacent communities.

Affordable Thermal Imaging Cameras “Until recently, small firefighting teams like ours could not afford a thermal imaging

INDUSTRIAL SAFETY REVIEW | JANUARY 2018

camera,” comments District Fire Inspector Harald Lechertshuber. “However, today’s thermal imaging cameras like the FLIR K50 have become more affordable. Also, encouraged by funding efforts of the German state of Bavaria, we decided to invest in new thermal camera technology. We learned about thermal imaging via our distributor Leopold Siegrist GmbH. We tested several models and the FLIR K50 came out as the best. With a price level like this, a thermal imaging camera has become affordable for practically any community fire brigade.”

The FLIR K50 gives clear temperature readings and the operation is very simple, just like firefighting camera should be.

“A thermal imaging camera can help us save lives,” says Harald Lechertshuber. “Only last week, we had to move out for an intervention and look at a car wreck as a result of a traffic incident. We were not sure whether there were one or two people inside, so we used the thermal camera and quickly discovered a second person.”

TECH UPDATE

The camera has several different imaging modes that help speed up tactical decisions and the search for survivors.

“A TIC should not be too complex, certainly not in the stressful situations we sometimes work in. In fact, the operation of the FLIR camera is much easier and simpler than I have seen from any other camera out there in the market.” Harald Lechertshuber

Looking for Wounded and Missing Persons Using a thermal imaging camera can be a very efficient way for firefighters to look for wounded or missing persons in places where the view is obstructed, for example in small or closed spaces or when you need to see through smoke. “A thermal imaging camera like the FLIR K50 can help us save lives,” says Harald Lechertshuber. “Only last week, we had to move out for an intervention and look at a car wreck as a result of a traffic incident. Looking at the car wreck, we were not sure whether there were one or two people inside. After being able to free one person from the wreck, we used the thermal camera and quickly discovered a second person.”

Thermal Imagers to Look for Fires The Mühldorf county fire department also uses the FLIR K50 to look for fires that are not immediately visible for the human eye. Sometimes when a fire team is arriving at

INDUSTRIAL SAFETY REVIEW | JANUARY 2018

the scene, it can be difficult to see how and where the fire has developed. “For example in row houses, you cannot always see from the outside in which building the fire is present,” says Harald Lechertshuber. “With the FLIR K50, we can already see from the outside which places are hot and cold and have a perfect overview of the situation.” But also after a fire has been extinguished, a thermal imager can help assess the situation and allow firefighters to look for looming fire remains or for inadequately extinguished fires.

better,” says Harald Lechertshuber. “Next to the camera’s price level, what we also value a lot is the user-friendliness of the K50. The camera gives clear temperature readings and the operation is very simple, as it should be with a firefighting camera. A TIC should not be too complex, certainly not in the stressful situations we sometimes work in. In fact, the operation of the FLIR camera is much easier and simpler than I have seen from any other camera out there in the market.” “The total package of the camera is just right for a fire department like ours. I would not change a thing about it. Even in highly elevated temperatures of more than 250°C, the camera keeps on working perfectly. We currently make use of twelve thermal imaging cameras from FLIR in our county. Whenever, we need to do an intervention, we give priority to the closest available team that has a FLIR camera. This way, we are sure that our people get the best firefighting services possible.”

SECURITY

An innovative approach of multispectral sensor in Biometric Authentication

ime-Attendance and Access Control have grown into a mainstream product and it is gaining significant growth in the market. Security issues pertaining to control access is a prime concern and a strenuous challenge in various sectors like Manufacturing Units, Airports, Defense, R & D Center, Nuclear Stations, Manufacturing Units, Mining Industries, Construction Sites, Chemical Industries, Transportation, Education, Healthcare, Club, etc. Access Control is a matter of who, when, and where. It is the access control system that determines who is to be allowed to enter or exit, when they can exit or enter, and where they can exit or enter. Historically, the problem that has been most prevalent when it came to protecting access control points whether they are digital access points or physical access points has been the ability of the configured door lock. Moreover, issues such as counterfeit and even swipe information were faced in the traditional security systems. Biometrics has put up a road block to unauthorized users that have used some of the “tricks of the trade” to gain access. Nowadays, information can be authenticated in different ways. It can be in the form of credentials that user knows such as, a PIN, password, etc. Second can be in the form of something that a user has it and needs to carry for authentication process such as, RFID Cards or a key fob with built-in authentication feature, etc. Third, the most powerful identification method is something that is unique to each user, their biometric credentials. These biometric credentials can be in the form of iris recognition, palm vein reader, multispectral biometric fingerprint, finger scanning, palm vein ID, facial recognition, voice recognition and more. The advanced technologies such as facial recognition and voice recognition are

INDUSTRIAL SAFETY REVIEW | JANUARY 2018

not much preferred. The face recognition technology sometime doesn’t work due to poor lighting effects, sunglasses, long/short hair, partially covered face, big smile on the face and more. Moreover, due to throat infection there are various issues identified in the voice recognition system. Biometric fingerprint credential offers high level identification security. The good thing about using biometric devices for identification is that modern systems are built and designed to be convenient and safe to use. These devices have proven to be quite efficient in enhancing security. But at some places such as mines, chemical industries, education, nuclear stations and companies with manufacturing units or remote locations having extreme weather condition, the issues of fingerprint identification are experienced. A new concept of advanced Multispectral Biometric Attendance System needs to be adopted to overcome such issues. With its high-performance technology, it reads two layers of a user’s finger - the surface and subsurface. It scans the multiple wavelength which gives clearer image quality of fingerprint than that in conventional system. By scanning multiple wavelengths, multispectral fingerprint controller reads surface and subsurface of a fingerprint. With an aim of overcoming hindrances posed by existing fingerprint identification systems scanning a single layer of the skin, multispectral fingerprint device is designed to deliver superior performance. It gives accurate image (s) even when the finger surface features are difficult to read due to dirt, usage, age or tough environmental conditions.

The identification by multispectral fingerprint door controller is extremely quick, which is another advantage it has over other tradition security methods and advanced features of iris recognition and face recognition. By using lumidigm biometric fingerprint scanner, user can be identified or rejected in a matter of seconds. Multispectral imaging is a reliable biometric identification breakthrough that is able to provide strong protection against fingerprint spoofing techniques. It offers significantly lower False Acceptance Ratio (FAR) and False Rejection Ratio (FRR), making it ideal for both – high security and harsh industrial applications. This unique identification process outperforms all other fingerprint scanners and offers robust and reliable biometric information of the user. Hence, installing an advanced multispectral fingerprint door controller provides secure, convenient, and reliable solutions.

Challenges: As the hospital works round the clock, one of the major concerns was to manage complex shifts of employees. Elevator control, where only users with access rights can call the elevator, was another challenge the hospital wanted to meet. Furthermore, the customer also wanted a solution, with the help of which the admin could assign entry and exit points for patients, visitors and employees. Lastly, the management

Matrix pitched its Access Control, TimeAttendance and Visitor Management Solution along with the different variants of biometric devices, which fulfills every requirement of this renowned Hospital. Around 206 devices were installed in the hospital, which are used in controlling access at rooms and elevators. Devices were installed at the Main Entrance, Ward Rooms, Server Rooms, Outside Elevators, and at Ramps on every floor to restrict access. So, there is no individual in the building who is not enrolled in the system. As the Hospital works 24 hours, there are multiple shifts in which the employees work. Through this, the Hospital could manage multiple shifts of employees. Approximately, 700 visitor profiles were created with constrained time to visit, limited rooms to enter and a pre-defined route of access. Also, crowd at the elevator was controlled by restricting the use to only users with elevator access rights.
