Moby-Kid alarm system
Our children and
grandchildren are our VIPs, our most valuable asset!
Drowning / Cause of Death
In many countries, where
families own a swimming pool, the incidence of child drowning is high, especially
in the under-fives.
Of all the children
hospitalized after falling in a pool, between 5 and 20% will have permanent
brain damage!
4 rules to reduce the risk of
drowning
- ALWAYS: Always provide supervision when children are in
and around the pool.
- FENCE: Fence off your pool to prevent children or
animals falling into it when you’re not around.
- TEACH: Every child needs to learn how to swim as early
in life as possible.
- CPR: Every owner of a swimming pool must know how to
resuscitate a person. But despite all these precautions children still
drown. So what can we do to protect them?
Ultimately, adults are
responsible for children around water, but just one distracted moment can be
fatal.
Alarm systems that
detect movement in the water can be a great addition for security, but they are
inclined to go off for no reason or they may be switched off if there are many
people are in the pool. With that in mind they are not most reliable protection
for our children. However, there is a solution. The simplest way to protect
your children around the swimming pool is to know exactly when they are in the
water and that is what a Moby-Kid wristband does. It sets off an alarm as soon
as it gets wet, thus making it the perfect, affordable solution that virtually
eliminates completely the risk of drowning.
Moby-Kid Pool Alarm Kit
The kit consists of a
plug & play base station. It works straight from the box so no there is no
complicated installation procedure. The Moby-Kid wristband features a special
lock with a key so the child is not able to remove the wristband. For pets
[dogs and cats], special Moby-Kid sensors that can be easily attached to the
collar are also available.
Base station
Each base station can
accommodate unlimited Moby-Kids so all children and pets may be secured.
Manufactured from a strong and durable material, the Moby-Kid wristband will
not hinder children while they play. It is also sealed so that it does not go
off in the rain.
How does the Moby-Kid
Alarm System work?
Plug in the Moby-Kid
alarm system, point the antenna upwards and position the base station not too
far from the pool. Then simply attach the wristbands to the child or children
requiring monitoring. The Moby-Kid continuously transmits a radio signal to the
base station. The moment a child falls into the pool and the wristband is
submerged, the radio signal is lost. The base station detects this immediately
and the system sets of an audible alarm. This alarm can be meaning the
difference between life and death. Remember that permanent brain damage can
occur within four minutes if a child stops breathing. Rapid reaction is of
paramount importance in such a life-threatening situation.
Moby-Kid alarm system for
pets.
Healthy dogs and
sometimes cats can swim short distances. However, if your pet/dog falls in the
pool and is unable to climb out, he /she will be in panic. This can then
quickly cause fatigue. Dogs and cats often cannot vocalize when in water so can
drown quickly and quietly.
Special Moby-Kid sensors
on the collar will alert you immediately when your beloved pet has fallen into
the water so you can spring into action and rescue him.
