Honeywell (NYSE: HON) today announced AreaRAE Pro, the next-generation wireless, transportable, GPS-enabled, multi-threat monitor from Honeywell RAE Systems. AreaRAE Pro collects information on meteoreological conditions and simultaneously detects a broad range of threats including toxic and combustible gases, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and radiation. While monitoring for hazardous conditions, AreaRAE Pro uses state of the art wireless技术实时传达威胁到最高两英里的主机接收器，在那里通过遥控器传达关键信息software因此，整个企业的互联响应者和决策者都提高了情境意识，以做出更快，更明智的决策。
“The legacy AreaRAE notably served the危险品紧急响应界将近15年来担任多威胁探测器，但现在该平台通过Honeywell Technology及其大量工程资源进行了重新设计和升级。“结果是单个设备收集的更多信息，并使本地和远程决策者可以轻松访问该信息。对于第一响应者，了解威胁是什么，它们在哪里以及如何移动对于确定适当的响应计划至关重要。Arearae Pro的检测功能给出incident commandersmore critical information, so that they can keep their teams and the community safe.”
With its versatile configuration options, AreaRAE Pro accommodates up to seven sensors that can be easily switched out as needs change. Users can select from over 20 sensors for toxic and combustible gases, a photoionization detector (PID) for volatile organic compounds (VOCs) at parts per billion levels, a gamma ray sensor for radiation, and a meteorological sensor to monitor factors affecting the dispersion and direction of gas plumes, such as wind speed and direction. Meteorological data can be used to develop a visual plume model on a computer loaded with Honeywell’s real-time monitoring software, which aids in predicting the spread of a gas leak and planning of additional safety measures.
In addition, AreaRAE Pro includes an embedded GPS location identification, which provides critical information on where a unit is deployed, enabling responders to react to an incident with increased situational awareness.
Honeywell has re-engineered the wireless technology to provide untethered flexibility with choice of wireless protocols includingGPS, mesh wireless, Wi-Fi or Bluetooth® (BTLA). AreaRAE Pro also has a built-in mesh modem that facilitates the short-range transmission (up to 100 meters) of readings to a central monitor, while serving as a host for up to eight other portable Honeywell detectors.
An optional Rapid Deployment Kit enables incident responders to configure and activate a wireless area monitoring system in minutes. Flexible power options are available for both short and long-term deployments, including switchable battery packs and AC power.
AreaRAE Pro builds on the AreaRAE’s legacy of excellence in the incident response community by providing responders with more information than ever to help them identify hot zones, set perimeters, and make other informed emergency decisions both onsite or remotely using AreaRAE Pro’s wireless technology.
“With today’s heightened emphasis on critical infrastructure protection and public venue security, we feel it’s critical that first responders and HAZmat teams be aided by the most advanced multi-threat monitoring tool available, one that gives them the information they need so they can appropriately respond to a threat and protect the public safety,” said Negre.
