Facility managers have a lot on their plate. They are responsible for ensuring that a property's equipment and environmental systems function at all times to maintain the comfort of workers, residents and guests. A crucial aspect of this responsibility is HVAC remote monitoring, which ensures the right climate is maintained in commercial buildings.
HVAC equipment represents a large portion of a building or manufacturing plant’s energy usage and operating expenses. HVAC monitoring systems can help minimize these costs by continuously tracking environmental conditions. They also monitor the performance of heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment.
Critical machine parts like separators, cooling towers, blowers, generators, pumps, bearings and motors usually give hints they are damaged and about to fail. When a fan becomes unbalanced or bearings start failing, they start vibrating more. Although this change wouldn't be noticeable to the human eye or ear, it's easily detected by a vibration sensor.
