Application Examples

Municipal Water Supply Application - User needs to gather information on a scheduled basis of the amount of water that is pumped out of a municipal well. The readings must be gathered weekly and be in thousands of gallons per day. The Keeper function can gather this automatically and the operator only needs to download once a week. The information is in .CSV format that will open in Excel with defined headers.

Prior to the arrival of the production team each morning the dust collector, cooling fans and even the lights in a foundry all start-up to full operating status without the need for human intervention.
