STATION TURNOUT TIMER

Optimize response times, reduce stress and gain situational awareness.

Enhance Emergency Readiness with Westnet Station Turnout Timers

Turnout timers act as a barometer of speed, offering immediate feedback on how efficiently crews are mobilizing without adding pressure or scrutiny from chiefs or officers.

Turnout timers, also known as call timers, are a game-changer for crews aiming to improve response times, while reducing stress. The challenge of meeting the NFPA 1710 turnout time standard of 80 seconds can put pressure on teams, but Westnet's turnout timers provide an effective, non-punitive solution.
