Arc-Max takes full advantage of the field-proven MicroScan 2000 SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) engine, to reliably produce alarm logs, live and historic trending, and specialized reports-- Shift Reports--giving key occupational health information.
Up to four independent shifts per day can be assigned, to better analyze exposure data. The shifts can overlap. The shift reports can be programmed to print automatically at the end of each shift, or on-demand at any time. Historical shift reports are readily available, as well. The Shift Report tracks the following, for each sensor monitored by Arc-Max®.
- Shift minimum value and time of occurrence
- Shift maximum value and time of occurrence
- 8 hour time-weighted average
- The four highest 15-minute average exposures that occurred during the shift (STEL)
Why Do You Need Arc-Max?
Toxic gas detection and alarming have been an accepted part of any good occupational reporting, safety and health program for many years. Just as important, if not as well publicized though, is the need for appropriate data acquisition, archiving and reporting. That`s where Arc-Max comes in.
Suppose that you`ve been a good corporate citizen, and have installed sensors for toxic compounds all around your facility, to protect your employees. Ask yourself this: Can you document long-term employee exposure? Do you have any idea how close their exposure is to the allowable levels? High concentration alarms are fine, but they`re not enough. Of greater importance these days is long-term low level exposure.
That`s the kind of exposure that lawsuits are based on. Unless you have a documented record of exposure, if you`re sued, you`ll be scrambling for data, desperately trying to re-create the past.
The Arc-Max® Advantages
- Arc-Max is completely self-contained: Unlike most competitive systems, Arc-Max produces the reports you need directly from the program. There is no need to export files to a spreadsheet program, unless you want to do unusual or specialized analysis. What`s more, all reports are generated without interrupting the current data collection.
- Arc-Max is easy to use: The system is supplied totally configured for your application, and is ready to run--right out of the box. No programming is required. All you do is connect your inputs.
- Arc-Max has data integrity: Because of the advanced program design, there is little chance of anyone ``tweaking`` the data after the fact. All sensitive functions, including setting alarm levels, establishing shift times, and exiting the program itself, are under password access.
Simply put, there is no package on the market today—even at twice the price—that can compete with Arc-Max! Click on the following links and see for yourself screen shot images of features such as Current Data Report, Shift Reports, Trending and Alarm Log.
