EXAMPLE SYSTEMS for Petroleum plants:

Explosion-proof CCTV systems. Rangemetrics brings 21st century technology to process unit video monitoring

Two new technologies are revolutionizing remote video surveillance:

Mega pixel cameras producing HDTV-quality video provide wide angle fixed views which can be electronically zoomed to see incredible detail. There less need for mechanical pan/tilt or zoom
Internet Protocol cameras put video directly onto your plant network so that the results can be viewed from any computer, not just a monitor in the control room

The HDTV- IP cameras allow you to view crisp detailed video from any computer. Unit or safety managers can view normal or abnormal operations from their offices or home.

Video is so detailed you can:

Recognize individual operators/contractors
Recognize vehicles in parking areas
Note work details and safety hazards
See origins of small leaks

all from a camera mounted at a distance to provide coverage.

RangeMetrics has been building custom explosion-proof camera systems for use in refineries for 15 years and is now joining this experience with newly- available HDTV-IP camera technology to offer integrated ready-to-install packages.
