Industrial Scientific, a global leader in gas detection and safety technologies that automate critical safety and operational risk workflows, is pleased to announce the Ventis® Pro5 Cellular is now available in Europe and the United Arab Emirates (UAE), expanding the connected portfolio to a global audience. The Ventis® Pro5 multi-gas monitor can monitor up to five gases, including volatile organic compounds (VOCs), simultaneously and manage worker safety anytime, anywhere.  The new battery adds cellular connectivity to existing wi-fi, and peer-to-peer connectivity options, making the Ventis Pro5 the most flexible connected gas monitor on the market while continuing to increase situational awareness while and decrease emergency response times.

The Ventis® Pro5 Cellular instantly transmits real-time location and hazard data, man-down alarms, and gas alerts to iNet® Now Live Monitoring software, allowing managers to monitor sites, keep workers safe, and immediately know who needs help, what happened, and where they’re located. Supervisors can communicate efficiently with teams in the field through two-way messaging. Developed with the latest LTE-M cellular technology, which was designed specifically for high-reliability industrial IoT applications, the Ventis Pro5 will connect for years to come and allow gas detection programs to scale over time.

“Having real-time insights showing where workers are located and what hazards they face gives organisations the ability to reduce risk, improve productivity, and strengthen their safety culture” said Gavin Boorman, Managing Director, and General Manager, EMEA at Industrial Scientific. “Adding direct-to-cloud cellular connectivity to the Ventis Pro, in addition to existing connectivity options such as LENS mesh network, WiFi, and Bluetooth makes the Ventis Pro5 the most flexible and powerful connected gas detector available today. This additional capability enables more organisations to implement connected safety solutions, to keep their workers safe.”

The Ventis® Pro5 Cellular is now available with reliable coverage through Telit in the EU and ETISALAT in the UAE. The monitor provides a run time for the full working day on a single charge and is compatible with existing DSXi™ Docking Stations and iNet® Exchange for maintenance and repairs.
