Public Warning and COMAH Alarms
The most effective way of alerting vast amounts of people to potential accident hazards is with the use of mass notification systems, which have been purposefully designed to provide operators the capability to inform thousands of people, at the push of a single button.
These systems have been effectively utilised on sites such as Petrochemical plants and water treatment centres. With 2CL’s knowledge of two-way radio, we can provide COMAH mass notification and public warning systems, which can be linked to your existing radio system to ensure your compliance with Control of Major Accident Hazards (COMAH) guidelines.
Whelen Mass Notification Systems
Working with Whelen’s UK distributor, 2CL is one of the leading installers of Whelen Mass Notification systems in the UK. These systems feature large loudspeakers designed for COMAH alarms, which are used to alert a large area of a hazardous situation.
2CL has installed and maintains numerous emergency notification systems across the UK. In addition to our expertise in mass notification systems, customers benefit from our extensive experience as one of Motorola’s leading two-way radio distributors. Two-way radios are a crucial component of these systems, often used to activate emergency alarms when traditional line connections are impractical or cost-prohibitive. Our integration of two-way radios with Whelen Mass Notification systems enhances communication efficiency and ensures prompt activation of emergency protocols.
