Safety Devices in the RobotPark
The RobotPark is fitted with a number of safety devices to
ensure total safety to the parked cars as well as the users. The following are
the safety devices in the Car Park:
1.
Entrance Shutter: Unless it is safe for entrance,
the shutter will remain closed and there is no manual method of opening the
shutter. While the shutter is open, no positioning operation in the module will
take place.
2.
Safety Stop of Shutter: The shutter is also
equipped with a safety device which will stop the shutter movement
instantaneously and return in the event it is obstructed.
3.
To ensure that the car is of the right size,
suitable for the Car Park, the car dimensions are automatically checked. If
found beyond limits, the parking process is halted and a visual advise on a
Display screen inside the garage as well as a audio announcement in English will
be given to inform that the car is not acceptable and to remove the car from the
Car Park.
4.
Human Sensor – The garage is fitted with a Human
sensor which prevents the parking process to initiate until the driver and
passengers of the car walk out clear from the parking garage.
5.
Emergency Stop Button – In case of unforeseen
emergency this button can be depressed to bring all operations of the Car Park
to full halt.
6.
Heat and Smoke Sensors – The Car Park is equipped,
in general with Heat and Smoke sensors to detect fires. These sensors will alert
the Fire Fighting Department and the Visual and Sound alarm will be set off.
Each car parking cell is also
equipped with these sensors. In the event of sensing fire, automatic Foam Spray
is actuated to put off a potential fire hazard.
In the event of fire, “Break
Glass” fire alarms units are placed in suitable location in the vicinity of the
Car Park to raise alarm manually.

If the car is placed wrongly on the platform, which
may lead to damage to the car if parked in that condition, Visual and Audible
instruction will be given to reset the car position till it is ok.
