  Optimise processes with an IOT solution
 ANZ BASED IOT solutions provider, SPLASH, has secured another contract to remotely moni- tor and control a brewery.
The announcement followed another deal that involved the rollout of its IOT solution to manage a fleet of cool stores.
The deal adds to a long list of customers with- in the food and beverage industries which utilis- es the SPLASH IOT system to remotely monitor and control their processes.

process as well as each vat to make the required control adjustments remotely or on-site.
In many cases the user interfaces reflect the lay- out of the plant on-site making it easier for semi or non technical persons to understand the systems.
This month the SPLASH IOT system has also been used to monitor and control solar and pow- er consumption in multiple schools in New Zea- land and Australia.
The SPLASH interfaces are being used for lobby displays and as a teaching tool to educate students on renewable energy systems and energy efficiency.
To date, SPLASH has more than 1,500 systems installed ranging from commercial solar and power monitoring to stand alone packaged build- ing services systems such as chillers, heat pump water heaters and roof top packaged air condi- tioning units.
This is in addition to industrial / process con- trol systems, swimming pools, cool stores and server rooms.
The SPLASH IOT system can also share data with other platforms providing BACnet gateways to share information with traditional BMS systems or to share specific data with clients’ fleet management dashboards via the SPLASH API. Visit: www.splashmonitoring.com
