Computerized remote monitoring, built into every unit
Mahikan emergency showers carry an onboard programmable logic controller (PLC) and human-machine interface (HMI) that watch every critical function in real time — and alert your team the moment something drifts out of range.
An onboard computer for every shower
The PLC continuously tracks water temperature, flow, tank level, pump status, heater status and enclosure conditions. When a reading goes outside its safe range, the system texts or emails a designated contact automatically — so a unit is never quietly out of service.
It also runs automated functions on its own: weekly maintenance circulation, heater engagement in cold weather, and a full self-function test with a logged record.
Real screens from the HMI
Operators configure thresholds, review alarms and confirm status directly from the on-unit interface — or remotely from a smartphone.
Live status at a glance
Real-time tank level, water and cabinet temperature, room temperature and fuel level, with a live alarm log for anything out of range.
What's running right now
A clear status view of every input and output — pump, water heater, valve, room heater, horn, lights, door and fuel — showing exactly what is in operation.
Site-specific thresholds
Sensor thresholds and setpoints are tuned to your site requirements and the applicable SDS before the unit ships.
Fault & activation alerts
Configurable alarms drive the on-unit horn and beacon and send SMS/email notifications to your contacts.
Certified controls, built for classified areas
The control system uses certified, explosion-proof components suitable for Hazloc Class I Division 2 (Zone 2) environments — so the same monitoring you'd expect in a plant control room travels with the unit to the wellsite.

Monitoring turns a shower into a documented safety system
| Capability | What it means on site |
|---|---|
| Weekly automated self-test, logged | Proof the unit works, captured automatically for audits |
| Automatic fluid circulation each heater cycle | No stagnant water sitting between manual tests |
| SMS / email fault & activation alerts | Your team knows immediately — even off-site |
| Compliance documentation package | Activation logs and test records ready for inspection |
| Horn & beacon on activation/fault | Local alarm draws attention at the unit |
| Settings tuned to site & SDS | Thresholds match your actual hazards, not a generic default |
