EMS/BMS – An Environmental Monitoring System (EMS) helps control the temperature, humidity and air quality within a semiconductor manufacturing facility, while a Building Management System (BMS) helps manage mechanical and electrical equipment like HVAC, lighting, power, fire and security assets. Both systems aim to optimize a facility's cleanroom conditions, prevent contamination and ensure product quality.
The Toxic Gas Monitoring System (TGMS) is designed to monitor toxic gas levels and issue alarms and notifications as required. It involves various components such as gas detection equipment, Human Machine Interface (HMI) software and Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) control systems. Honeywell develops reliable, sure, high-performance TGMS to ensure semiconductor and research facilities are safe and in compliance with all regulations. Honeywell’s TGMS is highly user-friendly and makes life easier for first responders.
