Maintain building services remotely
INTERNET OF THINGS (IOT) solutions provid- er to the buildings services industry, SPLASH, has installed its software across a nationwide chain of cool stores in New Zealand.
The SPLASH IOT platform provides the cus- tomer with the ability to more easily manage all of its cool stores while the maintenance contrac- tor will be able to remotely view the current and historical status of store operations including temperatures, refrigeration process and opera- tion, chiller doors status and actual movement within the cool stores.
The SPLASH IOT solution will also monitor the incoming electrical supply and how the pow- er is being consumed on each site.
Utilising the SPLASH maintenance tools, the contractor can manage servicing, complete work sheets and ensure information is securely stored within the SPLASH platform.
As soon as it was installed the SPLASH IOT so- lution identified an issue with the incoming elec-
Sankey diagram (an energy balance of the electricity being supplied to a building and how it is being consumed).
trical infrastructure when there was a momentary loss of the in- coming blue phase which oc- curred at the same time the re- frigeration compressor was running.
This caused the 3 phase compressor to fault on its motor overload.
Due to the comprehensive SPLASH alerting and diagnosis tools, the refrigeration engineer was able to spend very limited time on-site as the root cause of the fault was already known.
The technician reset the overload, tested and inspected the switchboard and notified the pow- er company with clear information which al-
lowed them to quickly identify the 160A blue phase fuse carrier at the road side plinth had come loose causing it to overheat and fail. These repairs were undertaken quickly and at zero cost to the client.
The SPLASH 4G hardware is small, stan- dalone, easy to install and provides comprehen- sive remote monitoring and control at cost-effec- tive pricing. Visit: www.splashmonitoring.com
