Regardless of how safe you think your workplace is, it never hurts to implement as many safety measures as possible – especially for busy factories and industrial spaces. In these environments, navigating risks appropriately is paramount to avoid injuries and disruption.
Our Forklift Pedestrian Alert System is highly essential in these workplaces where there are forklifts and other driver-operated vehicles.
What Is A Forklift Pedestrian Alert System (PAS)?
The Forklift Pedestrian Alert System functions uniquely with advanced proximity warning technology, notifying both pedestrians and drivers of the potential danger and risk of injury.
By using electronic tags and a control unit, this system works seamlessly to ensure optimal awareness in the workplace. Pedestrians wear these tags, which are then detected by the control unit that is installed on a forklift or driver-operated vehicle. Once both are within range of each other, the system alerts both the pedestrian and driver with a series of flashing lights, alarms, and/or buzzers.
The distance between the control unit and electronic tags can be adjusted according to various needs, such as the size of the workplace, tight spaces, and more.
Furthermore, the PAS technology can be utilized at intersections when pedestrians or vehicles enter the area, improving awareness and hazard identification.
Who Would The PAS Benefit?
The Forklift Pedestrian Alert System can benefit the entire workforce on-site to prevent collisions and increase productivity. Workers can spend less time worrying about the hazards and focus more on their tasks, all while minimizing risks with this technology.
This solution is particularly useful for situations where there might be visitors, inexperienced staff, or potentially impaired workers who require clearer indicators of danger. The PAS would greatly benefit high-traffic work sites, especially where there are numerous blind corners and intersections.
Fully automated safety measures within the workspace greatly impact the success of a business, not just for safety but also for workflow. We have a variety of safety measures you can implement in addition to the PAS, such as virtual sign projectors and laser lights for walkways.
