DID YOU KNOW THAT…..

……approximately every 3 days, someone in the US is killed
in a forklift related accident and each year an additional
94,000 injuries related to forklift accidents are reported?

The Intersection Cross-traffic System from Bircher America
Inc. has been developed to help reduce these fatal and very
costly incidents. The ICS increases plant safety by alerting
pedestrians when forklift traffic is approaching, creating
safer walkways and positive work environments.

The ICS also assists forklift drivers to locate intersections,
allowing them to reduce speed and take precautions when
entering the safety zone. The system can sense vehicles
separately from pedestrians in busy aisle ways, between
narrow rack aisles and can be customized to address specific
areas of concern. The ICS is typically installed over busy
facility forklift intersections that also include pedestrian
crossings.


The ICS’s microwave sensors detect vehicle traffic in the
sensing area up to 80’. Once detected, the controls lock in as
long as the forklift is moving toward the center of the
intersection. The audible and visual alarms are engaged until
the vehicle has fully passed through the intersection. The
system automatically resets and awaits the next forklift.


ICS - Intersection Cross-traffic System……to protect your
employees and assets.
