“It’s a testament to the manufacturers in this industry who are
constantly working to develop more comfortable, more protective,
more robust new products for their customers as they compete in
this fast-growing global market,” said OH&S Editor, Jerry Laws.
“Informing our readers and online audience about the best
new products available to solve their safety and health
challenges has always been at the heart of our magazine’s mission,
from 1932 up to today, and this contest is an essential extension
of our outreach to the industry. Readers will see all of the
winners featured in our December 2017 issue.”
“Of all emerging Internet of Things safety devices,
Blackline’s new G7c was chosen as the best
solution to connect employees with their business,” said
Sean Stinson, VP Sales and Product Management. “By sharing a
comprehensive view of everyone’s safety, all personnel can work
confidently, knowing they are connected to a live monitoring team.
Should an incident occur — an injury, health event or gas leak —
G7c instantly notifies monitoring personnel, allowing them to speak
directly with the worker using G7c’s built-in speakerphone. Nearby
co-workers can be immediately dispatched, responding to a downed
employee in the shortest possible timeframe.”
G7c is the world’s first wireless gas detector and lone
worker safety monitor with 3G communications and a two-way
speakerphone. It detects falls, calls for help during a man-down
(motionless) scenario and is supported by Blackline Live, a
world-leading cloud-hosted software portal designed specifically
for safety monitoring. Every G7c-triggered alert is managed in
real-time from receipt through to resolution by live monitoring
personnel. Businesses can, for the first time ever, account for
every second of their emergency response time, to make a
difference.
G7c is completely self-contained and works right out of
the box. There are no Wi-Fi networks to worry about, no
software or infrastructure to install and no support needed from IT
teams. To ensure that every G7c is correctly configured, Blackline
Live profiles automatically set each device up wirelessly,
maximizing equipment uptime. All alert settings are stored within
online alert profiles and a documented emergency response protocol
helps the live monitoring team ensure that every alert is managed
through to resolution according to company requirements.
G7c is supported by a family of plug-and-play cartridges that
expand its capability for lone worker monitoring and gas detection
scenarios (single-gas and multi-gas options). For wireless gas
detection applications, customers have the choice of gas sensors
including H2S (hydrogen sulfide), O2 (oxygen), CO (carbon
monoxide), LEL (lower explosive limit of combustible gases), Cl2
(chlorine), NH3 (ammonia) and SO2 (sulfur dioxide). Industry
requires that each sensor be periodically calibrated and regularly
tested to ensure correct operation before use. An optional G7 Dock
helps businesses streamline gas calibration and testing with an
affordable and compact testing station. G7c communicates every gas
calibration and bump test wirelessly to the Blackline Safety
Network for real-time compliance reporting.
G7c is globally certified intrinsically safe with wireless
coverage in over 100 countries. To learn more about Blackline's
