Monitoring Works
SENDER
RECEIVER
TARGETS
Deflection Monitoring pinpoints areas where
deflection exceeds predetermined tolerances,
resulting in an alarm condition whereby personnel
are notified that action must be taken to avoid a
more serious potential outcome. Lasers and
targets monitor deflection. Alarm panels capture
events and communicate when action is recommended.

A Word from Another Industry Leader...
I am working tirelessly to get theSRS system
installed in public schools its not worth

Example Manufacturing Company (Nye
Lubricants)
As an ISO 9002 Company, planning for the
continuity of operations is not only reasonable,
but a requirement. It is comforting to have one
less nasty surprise to be concerned
about. James B. McGowan, Facilities Manager

Example SHOWCASE CINEMAS
There is absolutely no question in my mind
that the DMD-1000 provided our manager with the
needed information in two instances to go and
rectify the problem before it became
catastrophic. There would have been over 1
million in damage not including the fact that
the cinema would have been closed for 8 to 10
weeks. Elliot Finn, Senior Project Manager
