INCREASED LEVELS OF ON-SITE SAFETY PROVIDED BY NEW SYSTEM FROM SPILLARD
Spillard Safety Systems of Gailey in Staffordshire has launched its Optronics ESP System which provides an added dimension of safety to the company’s existing Preview radar and Optronics rear view camera systems.
ESP integrates the two systems and, once installed on a typical piece of construction machinery such as a wheeled loader, alerts the operator of any objects within the range of the Preview sensor by displaying an increasing number of white chevrons covering all four diagonals on the Optronics cab mounted monitor.
The closer the object is to the machine, the more chevrons are displayed until all four diagonals meet at the centre of the screen. At the same time, an audible warning becomes increasingly louder as the level of danger becomes greater to ensure the driver is made fully aware of the situation and can take the necessary steps to prevent a collision.
Spillard is confident that this new integration between its Preview and Optronics systems will be of great benefit to both quarries and construction sites by providing an additional level of hazard warning and hence additional levels of site safety.
