Businesses that anticipate to resume operations under Level 3 of the lockdown in South Africa face the challenge of not only complying with social-distancing regulations, but ensuring that proper customer-flow management is in place. An innovative solution called SMART-Q from Italian visual and acoustic signalling device leader Sirena is available exclusively from leading supplier ElectroMechanica (EM).
SMART-Q is a luminous acoustic signalling device for queue management. Its configuration consists of a steady green light with a ‘beep’ sound and a flashing red light mounted on an extension and support base. It is operated by means of a battery in the base, or by 230Vac mains power. Battery power allows for eight hours of continuous operation.
Two modes of operation are available: In automatic mode, the duration of the green-light period can be selected from two to 12 seconds. In manual mode, a simple remote control is used to change from green to red and then back again, all at the press of a button.
SMART-Q is the ideal solution for businesses looking to reopen and ensure that they remain accessible, while at the same time adhering to all regulations in terms of the Covid-19 pandemic. It allows for effective and safe crowd management without any additional staff.
Convenient and easy-to-use, it empowers a business owner to decide when the next customer can enter, simply by clicking on the remote control button for the green light, or by setting a predetermined interval in automatic mode when there are many customers. This enhances the safety of both employees and customers.
