Blackline Releases New AlertLink Feature to Improve Safety
Blackline Safety Corp. has released the new AlertLink feature for its award-winning EXO area monitor and G7 wearable devices.
AlertLink proximity-based warning alerts increase employee safety via warning of potentially dangerous conditions, expediting evacuations, and incident response. The company developed the new feature after receiving feedback from their customer advisory panel that proximity-based warnings will enhance industrial safety.
Blackline Safety Channel partners are already seeing the benefits of the new feature.
“We were excited to implement the AlertLink upgrade into our gas detection suite from Blackline, and it has impressed us,” said Shawn Todd, American Safety Services general manager. “AlertLink has significantly improved the notification process for on-site personnel during high gas events, resulting in faster response times.”
AlertLink enables a Blackline device to share real-time alerts with nearby workers. When a device detects an event, such as high gas, gas sensor over the limit, a fall, no motion, or emergency SOS, it immediately sends a message to all devices within the defined radius, up to 5,000 meters (16,000 ft) from the source device. Monitoring personnel also receive the alert, allowing companies to remotely trigger evacuations and provide exact location and situation details to emergency responders.
AlertLink is available on monitored and self-monitored plans for any Blackline G7 and EXO devices. Blackline’s cloud-based system means G7 and EXO devices will automatically receive the AlertLink firmware update with no action required from the device user.
