Features Benefits
• Heavy Vehicle RF Unit eliminates the
need for noisy reversing sirens when
other ‘AT RISK’ objects are protected
with RF tags.
• Reduced noise emissions in particular
when operating near residential areas
(i.e. improves license to operate and
compliance with environmental noise
emission regulations).
• Reversing alarms can be activated when
either objects are detected within the
programmed detection zone (optional) or
when a system malfunction is detected.
• Localised System compared with
Distributed Wide Area Network
• Not reliant on existing mine
infrastructure for reliable operation (i.e.
good risk management practice).
• High level of redundancy.
• Fast detection response time (typically
under 300 msec for 10 units operating
within the detection range).
