Using one compact monitor including a series of analog and digital inputs and a 360° alarm, the smart sense fixed monitor from Becker is one of the finest in the industry as well as one of the most compact systems for handling gas monitoring. The smart sense fixed monitor is an all-in-one monitoring system complete with four main integrated gas sensors. 

From the very beginning, Becker set out to create an extremely compact package that would be reliable and truly flexible for environmental monitoring. The device is configurable with four-channel high-accuracy gas monitor support and temperature compensation. The alarm function onboard monitors any combination of gases as well as allows for the expansion of monitoring support through external inputs. Customers can continually expand protection from a series of gases in their business and the integrated controller gathers data across a wide range of scenarios. 

This configurable multi-gas monitor and the range of input on this device ensure that customers can use it for any type of mining environment. The pick monitor support system includes integrated controller functions with calibration records, black box recordings, critical information like alarm history and data logging as well as postaccident intervention and investigation tools. 

The programmable alarms set points for output controls and alarm limits display on the large LCD making it possible to read the device up to 5 m away. Having these functions in place makes this an overall safer device and something that is easy to access for any operator in a dusty or hazardous environment.

The auto-adjustable backlight makes make it usable for surface and underground applications giving this Monitoring device a wide range of connectivity and mounting support. The parameters of this device include a power supply of 9 to 24 VDC and humidity of 90% with noncondensing IQ ratings of IP 67. The device can operate up to -20° and +40°C. Gases that can be detected include sulfur dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, and nitrogen dioxide as well as the annotated temperature humidity, and air velocity. All of these tools can be particularly useful in recovering from a disaster or pre-detecting the event of a serious fault. The device is simple and compact enough that it can be worn by an operator or attached easily to any form of equipment. 

Interfaces along the inputs include a cut activity with RS 485 and mod bus internal input and digital inputs through multiple locations in the device. The goal here was compatibility and quick connectors or glands for other types of monitoring support systems and recording devices.

Smart Mine Communications

The leaky feeder system for underground communications is one that has become quite common in mining environments across the world. It is a system that uses a network of cables and nodes to send communications signals through the ground. The system is designed to be used in areas where there is no line of sight between the surface and the underground environment. Keep reading to learn more about smart mine communications. 

The original system was designed for use in coal mines. The system was later adapted for other types of mines and has been used in various mining operations around the world. Many mining operations rely on this solution in order to maintain solid communications in underground environments with their team.

The system consists of a series of nodes that are placed underground. These nodes are connected together with cables. The cables act as an antenna and send the communication signals through the ground. The system is designed to be very resilient and can withstand a variety of environmental conditions.

One of the advantages of this system is it can overcome any feedback from materials on the ground that prevent wireless communications. The system is also very scalable and can be easily expanded as needed. It is a very reliable solution for solid communications in difficult environments.

The smart com VHF leaky feeder system is a communications tool that comes with one of the best levels of support from a wide brand system. These communications tool comes with the broadest bandwidth amplifier that has ever been created for the mining industry; this means that the VHF leaky feeder system can be used for a number of applications. The leaky feeder system is also very easy to install and has a wide range of accessories to ensure the installation process is as easy as possible.
