Fun Facts…

  • Pro-teq's earthquake warning technology detects all earthquake activity, measures the intensity of each quake, and if necessary, issues a warning and conducts automated emergency responses before the violent shaking hits. Pro-teq Systems does not issue a general public warning, rather we issue highly specific warnings tailored for a single facility, campus, or community. Earthquake warning, detection, and analysis is NOT prediction. There is no such thing as earthquake prediction. There is however some great science at work.

  • Earthquakes only occur on known fault lines. Not true. Earthquakes can occur anywhere and any time. You can rest easy if you have Pro-teq Systems on the job!

  • Pro-teq technology does not have a Blind Zone. A Blind Zone occurs when the warning arrives after S-wave. This means the violent shaking has already started by the time the warning arrives. Therefore people are blind to the earthquake.

  • Not all countries have the same building codes. An earthquake in one country may collapse a building while in another the same earthquake may send objects flying but stays intact. Flying objects in an earthquake can injure or kill as well. Pro-teq’s technology can mitigate injuries and losses in every case.

  • An earthquake has just one magnitude but has multiple intensities. Pro-teq technology accurately and quickly determines the intensity of every earthquake at your location and, if necessary, triggers the appropriate action in accordance with your needs.

  • Pro-teq has your back!
