Reversing an articluated HGV can be a living nightmare even for the most experienced HGV driver. Now there is a simple solution developed by ETS.

Designed as a standalone system fitted to the trailer with the advantage that it will work with any tractor. RG-ARTIC is ideal for companies that use spot hire vehicles. When activated the system completes an initial self test and advises the driver that it is operating correctly.

This system is simple to fit and maintenance free; it uses specially designed high visibility LED signalling lights similar to those used on police vehicles to aid the driver.

The system will detect an object crossing the path of the vehicle while at the same time offer an indication of its distance.

Not all objects are human and while this product is a must have safety aid it will also significantly reduce rear end damage and safeguard your loads.

As with all our products the technology is manufactured and tested to the highest standards, resistant to environmental conditions such as moisture, dust, vibration, heat, cold, sun glare and others.

The aircraft refuelling safety system “Hydrant Guard” was developed at the request of a major oil company following a series of incidents involving impact damage to hydrant connections during the refuelling process as a result of heavy traffic activity around aircrafts. Major airports refuel aircraft using an underground pipe system where fuel is supplied under high pressure to a hydrant located in the ground at each aircraft stand position.  The largest fuel tanker you will see on the motorway carries 38,000 litres - it would take 5 tankers to fuel a jumbo jet (180,000 litres). Modern international airports use underground high-pressure systems for refuelling aircraft. A connection is made between the underground network and the aircraft via a truck. It is this connection that is most vulnerable during the fuelling process. If a collision with another vehicle did occur and cause a fuel leak, it is not a simple matter of automatically shutting down a valve. A simple fracture in an above ground fuel conduit can therefore cause an uncontrolled gusher of fuel, which will almost certainly catch fire. The potentially catastrophic consequences of this happening close to fuel-laden aircraft need no elaboration.

Hydrant Guard is a fully patented stand-alone proactive system which shuts off the fuel to an aircraft when it detects an obstacle approaching. There are no recognised or acknowledged competitors within this product field. The prototype product has undertaken and successfully completed field trial evaluations with Shell at Gatwick Airport and has received the unqualified support and acceptance by the airport authority. To date £315,000 has been invested, including a SMART award of £60,000. The target market is the major re-fuelling operators, various safety committees and airport authorities worldwide.

New rules, now require vehicles over 3.5 tonnes to be installed with high visibility mirrors which help but have obvious disadvantages.   While a mirror gives the driver a clear view of the area visible through the glass, the driver still has to look across the width of the vehicle to view the mirror thus taking his/her eye off the road ahead.

Companies have the option of flat or convex mirrors both with disadvantages while a flat mirror gives a restricted field of vision a convex mirror gives a wider but distorted view of distances and both are subject to reflection and dazzle.

Inventors at European Transport Solutions have now developed a low cost ‘fixed’ camera system giving the driver a full view of the ‘side sweep’ blind spot.  Pictures are so clear from this colour camera system that drivers can be in no doubt of hazards on UK or European roads.�
Michael Leigh company director explains “a camera gives a clear view of the field of vision, which can be set according to what information is required by the driver such as a wide angle. The driver has the screen mounted on the dashboard directly in his/her line of vision whilst looking at the road ahead which provides a much safer option for similar costs”.   �

The ETS Week number system is a simple and complete vehicle maintenance system.  It works on numbers and will ensure your depot and fleet operate within the correct guidelines. 

When placed into practice the system is not only faultless it is incredibly simple and foolproof, informing transport operatives of the current week number when used in conjunction with week number stickers applied to plant vehicles and trailers.

The system was initially developed for a national chain of dairy suppliers and is now used throughout the company due to its effectiveness.

Picking up potential dangers behind a vehicle without a banksman can be an impossible operation for the driver, which is why this type of accident continues to represent the most common cause of incident according to insurance companies. 

ETS have developed an innovative solution to this continuing challenge that doesn’t have to rely on wires and will allow drivers complete reversing freedom with a monitor acting as a third mirror and an all seeing eye behind the vehicle.

Picture quality from the digital cameras is exceptional with an impressive 420 TV Lines, operating in pitch black light conditions giving crystal clear images with a wide angle viewing lens.

The cameras are heated, incorporate anti-shake filters to provide a consistently stable picture and are weather proof.  The monitor has a flat screen ensuring a neat installation and it includes an adjustable mounting bracket which enables the monitor to be angled for optimum driver position.  Drivers also benefit from a mirror image picture and because its radio linked there are no wires”.
