Bosch technology protects drivers passing through Eurasia tunnel

For this project he has provided video surveillance systems, fire detection and access control, that will be managed by the Building Integration System. Among the cameras installed are the Dinion IP Starlight 8000 MP and the IP self-dome 5000 Hd.

The most Eurasian underwater tunnel connects the European part of Istanbul with its Asian part, a road that allows to reduce the time on the road of more than 110 minutes less than 15, to almost 107 meters below sea level.

Bosch plays a key role in this project providing security and protection solutions such as video surveillance systems, fire detection and access control. Systems that will be managed by the Building Integration System (Bis) from the manufacturer and who are open to integration with third parties.

With an estimate of 120.000 vehicles crossing the tunnel every day, "the safety of tunnel users is our number one priority in the operational phase", say the operators. This huge influx of cars is analyzed during the 24 hours of the day by the cameras with the automatic incident detection system (Automatic Incident Detection System).

The heart of incident detection is the Bosch video surveillance system that includes an intelligent set of network cameras to meet the multiple requirements of the installation. The Flexidome IP 7000 VR is used in those areas where conditions may be harsher due to its optimal resistance to vandalism and inclement weather, as is the case of the Eurasia Tunnel located in an area of concentration of earthquakes and floods.

In areas with low lighting the fixed camera Dinion IP Starlight 8000 MP provides high definition color images, in those conditions in which other cameras could only do so in monochromatic.

In case of need to follow, locating and zooming in on objects of interest, autodome ip mobile camera 5000 HD is the solution that complements the fixed camera Dinion IP 7000 HD providing high-definition images.

Video analytics as standard on certain cameras helps operators to identify accidents automatically and immediately, allowing rescue teams to act quickly and be accurately guided.

The construction on two floors allows a smooth driving by car through the tunnel. The Bosch solution provides an access control system that monitors the tunnel in more than 40 points in its more than five kilometers in length.

For its part, the Modular Fire Panel series fire panel 5000 of Bosch with 5.500 peripheral devices such as automatic detectors, sirens and strobe lights, as well as alarm buttons contribute to faster fire detection. More than 100 emergency call points in each tunnel at a distance of 50 Meters, together with the numerous emergency exits ensure the safety of travelers.
