Minneapolis, MN ‚— Detector Electronics Corporation (Det-Tronics) has announced enhancements to its xWatch‚® camera and surveillance system (http://xwatch.det-tronics.com). Options include viewing hazards over an internet connection and recording activities before, during, and after hazardous events.

The new options fortify surveillance systems by enabling users to:

* Immediately view industrial hazards remotely via a configurable IP address

* Accurately detect hazards by integrating the explosion-proof camera with a flame detector

* Record and review incidents for event analysis

* Integrate surveillance seamlessly into a safety system

Following are three of the many options available as part of a surveillance plan:

* a stand-alone, industrial-grade xWatch camera
* a camera partnered with a flame detector that provides accurate fire detection

* a surveillance solution integrated into a fire and/or gas safety system

With Class I, Div. 1 and NEMA 4X approvals from third-party approval agencies such as FM, CSA, CE, and ATEX, the xWatch camera, combined with a Det-Tronics flame detector, is ideally suited for remote and hard-to-access areas. The camera and detector view the same expanse. Continuous, real-time video provides the operator with surveillance capabilities during normal operation. If a fire is detected, the operator can quickly view a control-room monitor to assess the risk and initiate the appropriate response. Moreover, the DVR option allows users to evaluate the conditions leading up to and following the event.
