Sepura selected by Tata Steel for TETRA equipment
Tata Steel has chosen Sepura to supply TETRA communications for its flagship site in the Netherlands.
The IJmuiden steel plant is Tata Steel’s largest, spanning 7.5 km2 and producing up to 7 t per annum.
The TETRA network consists of five base stations, control room solutions and around 900 hand-portable and mobile radios, including STP8X Intrinsically Safe hand-portable radios.
The network is already fully operational and utilises specialist solutions for communication between vehicles, locomotives, cranes and emergency rooms.
“We are extremely pleased that Tata Steel has chosen Sepura,” said Gary Maughan, Sepura’s regional director for UK and North/Central Europe.
“The crystal-clear audio and rugged reliability of our radios, in combination with our robust infrastructure, will make a vital contribution to efficient operation and worker safety in this demanding environment.”
