Ervist Group of Companies in Partnership with NPO Spectron Aggressively Implements Import Substitution Program in Russian Security Industry

Moscow, January 19, 2015 –  Ervist Group of Companies - the leading Russian provider of products and security solutions for industrial special hazards and fire alarm systems – in partnership with NPO Spectron - has successfully completed one of the first projects within the Import Substitution Program in Russian Security Industry. This entailed substitution of imported Western security equipment for industrial hazards at one of the new projects of development of Arctic Shelf Oil and Gas extraction.

 

“Industrial Security issues are one of the most demanding for Russia,”- states Mikhail Rukin, Ervist Group General Director, Member of Committee on Security of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of the Russian Federation, “-Unfortunately, currently security in Oil and Gas in Russia is mostly covered by foreign-made products and solutions. In many cases our domestic developments are not inferior to foreign ones, and, in some – are superior in reliability; not to mention their cost-effectiveness”. 

Among the Russian security solutions for hazardous industries are: the "Yauza-Ex" product line and its component parts, "Elan" Linear Heat Fire Detector and others. All these are specifically designed and manufactured for operations and instantaneous fire detection at the industrial sites with high requirements for reliability and technical specifications. The efficiency of "Elan" Linear Heat Fire Detector is spectacular – it is five times cheaper than the foreign peer’s product, while the qualitative characteristics are far superior. 

An integral part of "Yauza-Ex" product line is Spectron-601Exd IR/UV flame detector. This proprietary Russian development is currently in big demand at domestic Fuel and Energy installations, especially in hazardous environments. Spectron-601Exd flame detector was awarded the Security Reference Award at SFITEX Security Show – as one of the top innovation developments.

Yuri Kozyrin, Spectron’s Technical Director, states: “The basis for each and every Spectron’s products is our proprietary schematic solution that is protected by the Russian Patent. We extensively employ the think tanks of major higher institutions of the Urals Federal District, of the Novosibirsk Academgorodok, as well as technical and scientific resources of our Defense Industry. This leads to establishment and maintenance of the highest possible reliability for our products. They are exceeding main parameters and characteristics of all similar products existing in the Russian market – both imported and domestically produced. ”

Ervist Group of Companies has worked out a List of Domestic Equipment that is suggested for the Russian enterprises within the Import Substitution Program in Russian Security Industry. We invite all interested to look at the List at our corporate Web-site; and send inquiries to us.

We have decided to fill in the information vacuum and communicate to top managers and to practitioners of industry the latest domestic developments – in many cases they are not inferior to foreign ones, and, in some – are superior”. 

Mikhail Rukin delivered a presentation at the Conference "Innovative Technologies & Equipment for Tank Farms & Oil Terminals" where he described Russian solution for the industry: "Yauza-Ex" product line and its component parts, "Elan" Linear Heat Fire Detector and others. All these are specifically designed and manufactured for operations and instantaneous fire detection – this is extremely important for Oil and Gas facilities.

As an example, they were impressed with efficiency of "Elan" Linear Heat Fire Detector – it is five times cheaper than the foreign peer’s product, while the qualitative characteristics are far superior. Technical experts highly appraised Spectron-601 IR/UV detector, an integral part of "Yauza-Ex" product line that was recently awarded the Security Reference Award at SFITEX Security Show.

“It was indeed unexpected for us to see presentation of Ervist security systems at the Congress of this type”, - states Alexey Zakhmatov, Deputy Chief Engineer for Security, SPETSMORNEFTEPORT UST-LUGA Port, - “Nevertheless, I guess I would not be mistaken if I express the general opinion of all participants - such display of a Russian technical vision that is transformed into fire security systems, is extremely valuable for our business.  Security is vital for our existence.”
