GUARDIAN : SOLO
The ECR version is intended to supplement
existing "dead-man" alarm systems - required
for UMS operations.
It is often the case that the duty engineer will
find themselves alone in the engine room for
protracted periods i.e. during standby when the
ship is under pilotage transiting confined
waters or undertaking general nightly duties.
Whilst the "dead-man" alarm is available,
experience shows that it is rarely used due to
the perceived inconvenience of having to press a
reset at pre-determined intervals.
GUARDIAN : SOLO protects the engineers whilst in
the ECR by detecting their movement using PIR
motion sensors. Should an engineer remain
motionless, through incapacity or otherwise,
beyond the set time period a pre-alarm is
activated. Failure to respond to this warning
result in the main alarm being activated, plus
the engineer's call system alerts off duty
engineers to a possible problem in the ECR.
When outside the ECR the engineers have access
to manual illuminated reset buttons situated around the
engine room and/or optional wireless reset /
panic button key fob transmitters
The manual reset buttons and the wireless panic
buttons are also programmed to
be used as "Call for Assistance". One long press
activates the main alarm and the engineer's call
system.
