iNet NOW Instrument Management System

Overview

As a safety leader, it can be difficult to track where your workers are located at any given moment throughout the day. You have no real-time data about workers, their equipment, or the hazards they encounter. You don’t even have the ability to respond to safety incidents in real time, so it could take hours or days to understand what happened and who was involved.

Industrial Scientific's iNet® Now live monitoring software provides real-time text and email alerts for gas hazards, panic, and man-down situations allowing you to see and respond to incidents as they happen. A map helps you to pinpoint the exact location of workers and instruments. With Industrial Scientific's iNet Now, you can have confidence that workers are visible, even when you’re kilometers away.

How Does Live Monitoring Work?

A worker carries an Industrial Scientific Ventis Pro Series Multi Gas Monitor and a smart device, both with bluetooth enabled.
The smart device runs the iNet Now Sync app in the background to send information from the gas detector to the cloud.
Data from the gas detector is sent to the smart device then to the cloud. When an alarm or important notification is generated by the gas detector, the designated contact receives a real-time text and/or email alert with the sensor readings, location, and status of the worker who is affected. The
alerted person then follows established response protocols.

Verify Worker Status & Location In Real Time

View a live map to pinpoint where workers are located and whether they have encountered hazardous gas, pressed the panic button, or activated man-down alerts
Receive notifications and respond immediatly when a worker encounters a high alarm, low alarm, TWA, STEL, panic, or man-down situation; alerts are fully customisable by gas level
Track worker and instrument status even when you’re away from the office with real-time text messages, email alerts, and a live map accessible for any web-connected device

Eliminate the human error and time it takes for lone workers to complete manual check-ins

View the status and location of workers automatically when their instruments connect to iNet Now
Verify lone worker status on iNet Now without burdening or distracting workers with manual check in processes or incurring costs of deploying additional workers
Access workers’ phone numbers in their profile for easy contact in emergency situations

Improve your gas detection program visibility

Create equipment groups for instruments that you want to monitor in real time and edit or change settings by group
Improve the reporting of your safety incidents by following up in real time versus days or weeks later
View a log of real-time alerts to see what hazards were encountered in the field and export data to spreadsheets or other applications for easy reporting and follow up
Analyse worker or instrument records to understand duration of alarms, time of alarms, monitoring status, and alarm readings
