Crowd management wireless system from Werma against covid-19ERT

In support of all shops, supermarkets, specialist’s surgeries and public offices to be compliant with social distancing regulations against covid-19, Werma developed SignalSET, a simple crowd management and access control traffic light system.

The solution clearly indicates whether it is safe to enter a building or not, taking into account the number of people who may already be inside. The traffic light set consists of a wireless controlled signal tower with red and green lights installed outside the entrance, and controlled by a member of staff inside the entrance who uses a wireless switch box to change the lights from red to green with an additional indicator board showing ‘Please enter’ or ‘Please wait’.

The signal device is very easy and quick to install, with no hard-wiring involved. All is required to do is to plug the light in to a power socket outside. In case an outside socket is not available, an optional kit can be supplied with a USB terminal element which can be powered by a standard USB power bank.

The light can be installed using a right angled bracket fixed to a wall. Other mounting options are available. The traffic light can also be fitted with a so-called vocal element which is a simple mp3 device onto which you can easily record an appropriate message/instruction or audio file.
