What's In A Name
The canary bird is particularly sensitive to toxic gases. Miners often used these birds as an early warning device to detect toxic gases that escaped the human senses. Any sign of distress from the canary was a clear signal that the conditions underground were no longer safe. Using the canary to evaluate safety conditions enabled miners to evacuate the mines when conditions became harmful, saving countless lives.
Similarly, our products provide operators access to conditions that are not easily detected, providing early warning alerts to problems that can be resolved before they become disasters.
