Every factory that operates in an explosive environment with flammable air and combustible dust particles needs critical monitoring. A good range of CCTV solutions helps in digital monitoring of all nooks and corners of a factory. In addition, it helps ensure a secured work environment for workers in the factory, warehouse, and material management sectors. The well-structured Explosion-proof cameras are designed as per the ATEX certification standards with a protective steel case encasement. This helps in keeping the device safe from sparks and radiation and gives longevity to the device. The devices primarily used for ex-proof industries are Analog Ex Cameras, Robust Cameras, Network Ex Cameras, Connection systems, enclosures, ex cables, etc.

* Analog Ex Cameras:

Analog Ex Cameras are especially known for their compact size and robust build.

‍* Robust Cameras:

Robust Cameras are ideal for workplaces with extreme industrial conditions.

‍* Network Ex Cameras:

Network Ex Cameras are used for high-resolution streaming of the monitored areas.

‍* Enclosures:

These encasements are a necessity for protecting devices in highly explosive surroundings.

‍* Connection Systems:

Using the connection system makes the installation process extremely easy and hassle-free.

‍* Ex Cables:

Ex Cable wires are designed to be used in highly explosive environments and hazardous areas.

Industries where ex-proof cameras are an essential investment

1. Gas & Oil Industries: These sectors need vigilant monitoring of onshore and offshore rigs, stations, and pipelines. The areas around the pumping stations must be monitored to maintain the required amount of pressure across the pipeline.

Choose the safety system where the entire device body is resistant to the temperature and pressure and can work optimally even below -60 degrees celsius. The IP structure network monitoring will provide necessary signals, both audio and visuals, and help in data processing that can be transmitted over a great distance.

‍2. Depots of Fuel and Refineries: Safety requirements must be seamless in such industries because of their highly explosive nature. The control and coordination from a central location is necessary for adhering to the safety regulations, reducing the requirement for the operator to manually maintain the safety standards, and increasing industrial productivity.

The safety solutions needed for these industries include CCTV monitoring cameras, loudspeakers, and intercom systems. The SharpEagle safety solutions have a robust build, and one cable that provides the operator with a complete monitoring control through images, signals and power supply.

3. Pharmaceutical & Chemical Industries: The chemical industry has transformed completely over the years after the introduction of automation in its tech sector. Cameras work the best in certain parts of this industry where human monitoring is impossible because of extremity in pressure-temperature and highly acidic, corrosive, and sulphurous surroundings.

The chemical industries especially have certain zones where workers cannot reach or can work only to a limited extent. Conventional monitoring often leads to a lack of situational awareness in these zones, resulting in several gaps in response time during crises. Hence, several remote zones in pharmaceutical and chemical businesses require the latest tech solutions to achieve peak efficiency in their operations.

4. Mechanical Engineering: Sensors and CCTV monitoring have been an essential part of the mechanical engineering industry for years. Primarily, two monitoring systems are used in these industries — industrial photo processing and video surveillance. Advanced surveillance cameras are essential in monitoring these sectors.

5. Construction Industry: Construction industries use heavily taxed machines and a colossal volume of materials. Flameproof monitoring devices give these sectors a viable safety solution with consistent surveillance. SharpEagle’s ex-proof solutions ensure safety with real-time data availability even from remote areas.

Importance of investing in ex-proof cameras for your industry

Explosion-proof surveillance solutions are necessary to keep your business safe and substantially reduce your insurance expenses. Unfortunately, many industries still continue to experience serious accidents and fatalities due to explosions, owing to the lack of such safety solutions. Global experts recommend that there is no time like the present to take the necessary steps to mitigate the risks for such fatal incidents in your workplace.

Self-awareness and precautions go a long way in having a safe and successful business.
