Gas detection data has become an integral part of everyday safety management for hundreds of teams across a wide range of applications.Understanding the environment in which you are sending your team and keeping track of their exposure is vital to comply with regulations, along with keeping your team safe in their day-to-day work. Therefore, making sure this data is secure and easily accessible is vital to ensure any hazards are caught quickly. The Dock Pro makes this process easier and faster with its upgraded data management capabilities.

Why its important to securely manage your gas detection data

Keeping up-to-date event and data log information from your fleet of gas detectors is important when managing calibration routines. Typically, devices will alert every 6 months to ensure calibration takes place, but if your team work in a particularly harsh or dirty environment, devices may need to be calibrated more often. Having the information of your last calibration date easily accessible makes implementing more frequent calibrations into your process simpler.

Additionally, if part of your routine is bump testing your devices every day, it is important to know that this process took place. When managing a large fleet this can become a difficult task. But being able to directly download these details to your cloud server means all necessary team members can have confidence that this took place.

Keeping this data secure and in a place accessible by all necessary team members is vital. Should overexposure occur, it is important to have this data to hand for further analysis, to understand exactly what happened and why, prevent further incidents and improve processes.

Not having any of this information available in a secure location or having it potentially be lost during transfer can put all of the above processes at risk. Leading to massive complications should bodies such as the HSE need to get involved.

How can the dock pro help?

The Dock Pro enables secure and direct data downloads to your computer's local server and your company's cloud server. This ensures that data is quickly and easily accessible by all necessary parties and takes the complication and risk away manually transferring data.

Downloads directly to the cloud server also allow teams to download data anywhere around the globe. Whether onsite or working in a different office branch anywhere in the world, you can keep up to date on your teams fleet operation effectively.

Additionally, the different download methods allow you to access your data with minimal equipment. Data and event logs can be downloaded both via ethernet or wireless. Data is also automatically saved on the Dock pros SD card. So, if you need access to your data immediately whilst you are on site or do not have the proper equipment, this can be done easily.
