Project at Tribhuvan International Airport:
It
is indeed a great honour for Beltronix to be offered
work at the highly prestigious ‘Tribhuvan
International Airport’ (TIA), where anything
and everything is expected to be at international
standards. Highest level knowledge of electronics
and computers, expertise in electronics repairing,
strong financial capacity, capacity to source
from international manufacturers are some of the
essentials qualifications for any company to execute
this challenging job. Beltronix was the only company
in Nepal to take part in all three tenders called
by Tribhuvan International Airport Improvement
Project (TIAIP) for supply and installation of
Closed Circuit Television System, Flight Information
Display System and Public Address System. More
than a decade long exposure of Beltronix in the
repair of electronic equipments doubtlessly turned
out to be a very big asset in the project when
it came to revamp the existing system and bring
the old CCTV, FIDS and PA equipments into working
condition which would have been an impossible
task without the accumulation of vast experience.
It saved a lot of money, which otherwise would
have been needed to replace with new equipment.
Beltronix experience in dealing with equipment
from all around world was also very fruitful for
the efficient completion of the project. Beltronix
had to integrate the equipments from a dozen countries
like Japan, USA, Australia, Holland, Italy, Singapore
to name a few. One significant characteristic
of the TIA project is the necessity to accomplish
all the work without causing even the slightest
disturbance in the smooth running of the day to
day airport operations. Beltronix engineers proved
their invaluable skill by not causing the shut
down of TIA CCTV operation even for an hour in
the course of relocating the entire CCTV control
console room and revamping the CCTV system.
Below are the comprehensive briefs about the systems
installed by Beltronix at TIA.

FIDS/BIDS
System:
Airport passengers can observe that nowadays the international
terminal building has been equipped with colour monitors
displaying airline flight information. The monitor in
the departure lounge provides information regarding
flight details inclusive of airline’s name &
logo, flight number, destination, boarding message with
time schedule, actual time schedule of the flight departure,
etc. In the arrival section or in inbound immigration
area one can easily notice the warm greeting “Welcome
to Nepal”. All these and more are the contributions
of a very sophisticated Flight Information Display Software
(FIDS) of international standard installed at Tribhuvan
International Building by Beltronix. This software facilitates
scrolling the messages on screen as per the desire of
different airlines. FIDS also enables the operator to
deliver any emergency messages instantly to all the
monitors positioned in the airport complex. |

CCTV
System:
The CCTV system, which is installed at TIA is probably
the biggest and most sophisticated system ever installed
in any Nepalese location. The control room is now equipped
with Multiplexer System allowing continuous recording
facility of the information supplied from all the cameras
round the clock. The number of surveillance cameras
has almost doubled. With the help of a few other peripherals
like Pan/Tilt and zoom lens, a CCTV camera can focus
on a particular person and his movement and his/her
ID card can even be read from the control room. In order
to avoid the possible disturbances due to weather, all
the outdoor cameras are jacketed within the enclosures
with state of the art technology. The outdoor camera
housings are fitted with heater, wiper, fan, etc for
the year round protection against weather changes.

PA
System:
The passenger’s attention must have been drawn
frequently by the operator’s voice saying “Your
attention please…” followed by the “Ding…Dong”
tone. The operator can selectively transmit the message
to one or more zone(s) as he or she finds necessary.
There is also the provision of playing background
music around the building. Though this system is not
new to the ITB, Beltronix got the opportunity to revamp
the old Public Address (PA) equipment of Philips so
as to operate it in full capacity. Many more amplifiers
have also been added handle the additional load of
hundreds of speakers on the ceilings of expanded wings
of the terminal building.
Baggage
Weighing Machine:
Beltronix has installed 27 units of new Baggage Weighing
Machine at the new check-in counters of the Departure
section of Tribhuvan International Airport. Matcon Matic,
a specialist company in Singapore, has fabricated the
machines. The load cells and the display indicators
are from world-renowned A&D company, Japan. The
digital calibration of the weigh scale has been completed
by our very own Beltronix engineers. The memory function
in the new weigh scales can accumulate the weights of
the baggage of all the passengers so as to show the
total baggage weight load in a particular flight.
