Objective
The aim is to provide a reliable and very rapid means of warning the personnel and checking that they have received the warning. The speed with which the alarm is given is a crucial factor in minimizing the effects of any incident or accident.
Designed with manufacturers and users in close collaboration, the device has been made in accordance with Conditions and Specifications drawn up by a working group which has examined in detail the features and operation to be envisaged for this installation.
It is essential that the whole workforce of an underground mine should be warned rapidly in an emergency.
Since any situation which makes such an alarm necessary is an exceptional situation the alarm must, in order to ensure maximum effectiveness, be given with as little human intervention as possible by means of reliable devices.
In order to enable an alarm to be transmitted rapidly with as little human intervention as possible and by reliable means one must
- find a device for transmitting information to the workforce;
- find a device for acknowledgement of the warning;
- manage the whole system by computerized means;
- identify the most suitable systems for transmission of the alarm and acknowledgement signals, preference being given to existing systems used for other purposes so that they are sure to be in good working order when needed.
