Derichebourg uses Hikvision technology to secure recycling companies

To control the risks and problems of waste processing and recycling facilities, Derichebourg Technologies has relied on thermal detection technology from Hikvision to deploy innovative solutions.

The risks of fire in the facilities of waste processing and recycling increased by the flammable and potentially explosive nature of some waste materials, like lithium batteries, aerosols or electrical materials. To warn of possible fire outbreaks, las thermal images associated with advanced analysis of systems Hikvision have proven their worth in these applications.

Whether they are triggered by chemical waste, electrical components or by malicious acts or human negligence, fires in the recycling industry have serious consequences that may call into question the continuation of the activity.

Fires are often extremely difficult to contain, and sometimes the nature of the burned materials is unknown… This has serious consequences for the health of the population., and great risks to the environment.

To control these risks and problems, Derichebourg Technologies has relied on Hikvision's thermal detection technology to implement innovative solutions in high-risk sites that detect temperature increases and, therefore, a possible fire outbreak. These alerts are processed in the same manner as fire alarms by the operators of the approved remote monitoring station. APSAD P5.

To ensure that temperature increases can be detected at customer sites before they result in uncontrollable fire outbreaks, the company decided to implement an innovative thermal imaging solution from Hikvision.

The solution, which was installed by the security specialist Visio Control, includes the PTZ dome camera Hikvision dual spectrum (DS-2TD4137T-9/W). This is mounted on a high mast, enabling 360° visibility and real-time temperature rise detection across the site.

Thermal cameras are an important asset whenever there is a risk of a fire starting outside. They have a very wide field of view and can detect temperature increases over entire sites.

If the surface temperature of an object increases in the thermal spectrum (that is to say, it gets hotter), The camera triggers an alert to the security operator and site administrator in real time. Then, The alarm can be confirmed immediately based on the high-quality video footage transmitted from the camera to the alarm receiving center, that show the security operator the nature, exact location and size of the fire.

With Hikvision's thermal imaging solution, Derichebourg Technologies minimizes the risk of fire outbreaks. The company increases its operational efficiency, with less need for human patrols on site.

Based on deep learning technology, Hikvision solution adapts to specific site conditions. This reduces false alarms and contributes to a detection accuracy of up to 98 %, which increases the efficiency of operators handling alarms.
