Correlate and trend data to evaluate changes in indoor air pollution. This critical data enables monitoring of indoor environmental conditions that can negatively impact occupant health.

Senseware also makes it easy to monitor and control air quality based on current indoor conditions with the Dynamic Controls App.

A customer implemented IAQ packages in a shared office space to monitor temperature, humidity, air flow and levels of CO₂, VOCs, and Particulate Matter (PM).

Reduce project liability exposure for damage to sensitive critical infrastructure. A customer used Senseware IAQ packages to ensure dust levels were kept to the standards of the site regulation to prevent any infrastructural damage due to construction.

Any BAS that fails to provide needed sensor data is functionally obsolete. Senseware’s wide array of sensors and bridges support adding new monitoring on-site without ordering costly BAS equipment, if it even exists.

Senseware’s platform, with bridges that support any third-party sensor/meter/device, ensures that your on-site equipment never becomes obsolete. The intuitive web interface allows building engineers to easily view equipment status and environmental conditions, trend important monitoring points, and get instant notifications.

Older buildings are faced with aging infrastructure and increased demands on performance. Smaller buildings or temporary structures (e.g., trailers) have poor economics that cannot justify installation of a traditional BAS.

Senseware provides inexpensive wireless retrofits that can capture real-time sensor data, deliver anytime, anywhere access to on-site conditions using real-time cloud dashboards, and control on-site lighting and HVAC using a lightweight BAS in the cloud. In one example, individual thermostat setpoints can be controlled from the cloud using customized schedules or intelligent sensor-based controls.

HVAC represents the next, great frontier for achieving energy savings in buildings. Digitization of assets involves the process of creating electronic resources from physical HVAC assets such as chillers, cooling towers, RTUs, and AHUs.

HVAC energy-efficiency analysis requires granular operational data. A typical Building Automation System (BAS) will run the HVAC control loops, but will not provide the needed real-time data for HVAC commissioning. Senseware retrofits your HVAC assets with wireless sensors that capture comprehensive sets of real-time data such as supply/return temperature, compressor run-time, air flow, vibration, power consumption, and ambient temperature/humidity.

Senseware’s real-time stream processing engine can also calculate real-time performance metrics (e.g., EER, SEER, COP, kw/ton) as needed. Sensor data and performance metrics can be streamed to your servers in real-time for analysis of the efficiency of heating and cooling equipment.

Engineers visit gas, water, and energy meters daily to get meter readings of consumption. Delayed response to usage spikes may go undetected and result in costly utility bills.

Pulse, Modbus, and 4-20mA bridges allow Senseware to connect to nearly every energy meter. Our newly released water meter bridges allow for communication with specific water meter protocols from Sensus and Badger water meters. All this allows for remote monitoring of meters. Since the information is all real-time, higher than normal consumption can trigger alerts so that building engineers can detect leaks and failures before expensive damage occurs. Now building engineers can view meter readings remotely to understand consumption trends.

Building engineers have to manually update time clocks when they want to change the schedule of a piece of equipment or lighting circuit. Other cases require they manually turn on/off the equipment daily.

The Senseware timer control bridge allows users to set & change schedules for equipment remotely and perform manual overrides of equipment. Soon it will even allow for control of equipment based on other sensor data or weather information.

A Senseware customer has buildings spread out of several city blocks and used electromechanical time clocks to control when lights were on/off, garage fans, and exhaust fans. They also had HVAC that ran during unoccupied building hours. When they wanted to change any of the schedules, or when daylight savings time transitions occurred, building engineers had to walk around and manually change every single relay. With the Senseware system they can now remotely monitor all of the equipment and change schedules from any web connected device. They can also make sure their HVAC only runs during occupied hours.

Having multiple buildings requires they all be monitored, but installing a building automation system (BAS) that allows building engineers to manage all building at once would be extremely costly, time consuming, and logistically challenging.

Wireless hardware allows for quick, easy, and unobtrusive installation. Dashboards allow for data visualization across buildings to display portfolio views or building specifics view of sensor or equipment data.

When equipment fails and a significant amount of time passes, the cost of the damage will escalate rapidly if a building engineer remains unaware. Having real-time visibility to the run-time status of facility equipment (e.g., pumps and HVAC assets) can provide an early warning of potentially catastrophic conditions in your facility. Instantaneous alerts and notifications will inform building engineers before it’s too late.

Building engineers are often unaware when pipes freeze and water leaks occur. Catastrophic water damage will result. Reliance on visual inspections is misplaced. Notifications by the tenant means it’s too late. Our wireless nodes can detect pipe temperatures and detect leaks in remote parts of your facility where leaks can be common, costly, and problematic. Water meter monitoring can also help building engineers detect unusually high water usage.

A customer had a $300,000 leak in a tenant space. After installing Senseware, the customer gets instantaneous alerts if a leak is detected and the tenant receives peace of mind as they are also able to view the real-time data for the leak detection sensor.

Monthly utility bills tell you what happened in the past. Senseware provides consistent, real-time visibility into current and peak demand usage of your main utility meters and downstream submeters. Diagnose consumption patterns for critical HVAC assets, tenant usage, floors or other facility areas.

Submetering supports cost allocation amongst tenants, departments, services, or any other accountable entity. Attribution of costs based on actual energy consumption (either efficient or excessive) will provide needed feedback for sustainability initiatives. Behavior changes will follow naturally as entities account for their own activities.

Technology provides many paths to a sustainable future. One of the most under tapped resources for sustainable buildings is the engagement of building occupants. Every conservation program that can be envisioned, will be amplified when building occupants become partners in your Green initiatives.

Senseware’s shareable real-time dashboards can be displayed in public areas (e.g., building lobby). Cloud-based visualizations that track the current status of sustainable initiatives and show the relevant impact on the environment (e.g., Green House Gases (GHG) saved) can lead to outsized results through engagement at a personal level.
