Elpas of Westford, Mass., part of the Security Products business unit of Tyco releases the Lone Worker emergency call transmitter.
The device ensures that personnel who may be subject to attack or injury when operating on their own can send alerts about their situation and responders can be dispatched to the exact location of the evolving security incident, the company says.
The transmitter is equipped with two emergency call buttons that are located on either side of the unit for manual, wireless duress alerting. Additionally, there is an onboard tilt switch and a pull cord for automatic alarm sending if a lone worker is knocked down, or even becomes unconscious, or if the unit is taken from the victim by force.
The fully weatherproof call transmitter is designed to eliminate false alarms through the use of a dedicated front button that is used to clear alerts.
