Ask anyone who has worked a major turnaround and they will tell you: confined space entries are where safety teams feel the pressure most. Visibility is limited, conditions change fast, and the people watching from outside need to know exactly what is happening inside, every second.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

For years, TeQ Shield\u2122 GUARDIAN has been helping teams do just that. Now it is time for the next step. GUARDIAN is being retired and replaced by TeQ Shield\u2122 GUARDIAN-PRIME<\/a><\/strong>, our next generation of remote confined space monitoring. Here is the story behind it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lessons from the field<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Every deployment of GUARDIAN taught us something. We saw projects stretch longer and vessels grow more complex. We worked in freezing winters and scorching summers. We saw how much safety teams depend on a stable connection and a reliable power supply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rather than patch the old system, we took that global turnaround experience and built PRIME from the ground up. The goal stayed the same: keep confined space workers safe. What changed is how well the system holds up when projects get long, demanding and complicated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
