Secondary Disaster Prevention

Control human panic and prevent possible dangers after an earthquake with the Real-Time Earthquake Emergency Intervention System.

Events such as human panic, fires caused by electrical or hazardous substances leakage and sensitive machinery-equipment failure
that may occur during or immediately after an earthquake are defined as secondary disasters. Such disasters can lead to loss of life and prevent the post-earthquake sustainability of the building or facility.

How to Prevent Post-Earthquake Secondary Disasters

During an earthquake, when critical trigger (acceleration) levels are exceeded based on previously decided earthquake level scenarios, our system can intervene by taking the following actions to prevent the post-earthquake secondary disasters;

  • Control human panic with previously recorded announcements
  • Shut down transmission lines containing hazardous materials
  • Automatically stop critical machinery-equipment

Earthquake Test Simulation

This is the system to generate earthquake motion by combination of ultra small electro-dynamic horizontal vibration table (PET-03H) and power amplifier with built-in oscillator (PET-0A).

Control of Emergency Shutdown

The panic caused by earthquakes in highly populated environments can reach damaging levels. In tall buildings, human panic should be taken under control and initiate evacuation by automatic activation of the existing announcement equipment.

Electrical energy can easily cause fires for various reasons due to earthquakes. Main power lines can be
automatically shut down when the predetermined threshold level is exceeded, based on seismicity of the region, age, and sensitivity of facility.

In industrial facilities, dangerous fluids in transmission pipes may leak due to earthquakes and cause fires. The
transmission of dangerous fluids can be automatically interrupted at the time of a critical earthquake.

Sensitive machinery and equipment can be damaged by earthquakes and therefore there may be long-term business interruptions. Thanks to our system, critical equipment can be switched to a sleeping position in the
event of an earthquake, at the recommended earthquake acceleration level.
