"Go from Pneumatic to DDC in minutes" Traditional pneumatic thermostats are manual devices which do not allow for remote readings, diagnostics, or setpoint control. This translates to costly maintenance, wasted heating and air conditioning of unoccupied space, and inability to work with utility demand response programs. Traditionally, these shortcomings can only be overcome by replacing the system with a new Direct Digital Control (DDC) system, a time-consuming process which disturbs occupants and costs $2,000 or more per thermostat zone...  |

Save energy costs by remotely monitoring your steam traps for costly leaks and blockages. Steam Traps are mechanical devices installed on steam pipes to remove condensate; they are needed to maintain the proper operation of steam distribution systems. According to U.S. Energy Information Administration, an average 15-25% of steam traps are leaking at any given time. Even a single small leaking steam trap would waste thousands of dollars per year... |

Non-invasively remotely monitor your analog pressure/temperature gauges. Manual dial gauges which measure pressure, temperature and airflow are found in virtually every facility including compressors, chillers, air handling units, coolant loops etc. In older buildings, gauges may be the only instrumentation available, and technicians are required to perform regular "rounds" with clipboard and pencil to log gauge data. It is a time consuming and error prone process... |

Monitor transducers remotely at a fraction of the cost of hardwiring. Many facilities have mandates to reduce energy use (e,g, 5% reduction from prior year). Most unfortunately do not have any baseline data from prior years to compare to, and must install instrumentation and record the necessary data. This can be an expensive and time consuming exercise to install new transducers, run wires, create drawings, connect I/O panels, and configure software... |
