n March Plymovent launched the ControlPro Connect. This advanced web portal maximises uptime and operational efficiency for filter systems that remove welding fumes at industrial facilities. The
portal provides the real time filter status of all filters and gives accurate insights in trend lines and deviations. By monitoring this data, planned maintenance can be organised better to keep down the costs and maximise uptime.
Manage Multiple filter systeMs easily
ControlPro Connect is Plymovent’s IIoT (Industrial Internet of Things) solution for filters and fans that are controlled by the ControlPro control equipment of Plymovent. ControlPro Connect is an advanced web portal that gives our customers the power to monitor, manage and control multiple filters in their facility at a glance. The dashboard of the ControlPro Connect provides an overview of the main functions and status of the filters. Via the user interface the factory map can easily be uploaded and the filter installations inserted. The system then shows all relevant information of the filters and fans e.g. filter pressure, energy savings, dustbin level, alerts and warnings.
Maintenance crew saves tiMe
For companies with intensive welding activities, the maintenance of all the filter systems can be a time consuming task. The new web portal combines all the data of the various filters together (e.g. filter pressure and dustbin levels) and they can be managed from a desktop or a tablet. Warnings and alerts are shown real time with the exact location in the facility and are delivered directly via email to
the assigned responsible person within the organisation. Not having to check each individual filter in the facility saves the maintenance crew valuable time. Historical data of the filter performance is
stored for easy analysis. Reports about the performance of the installation are available in graphic form and as historical data per week, month or year. With the stored data our customers will get accurate insights in trend lines and deviations, enabling them to make data driven decisions to optimise the filter operation, plan preventive maintenance and maximise uptime.
save energy by changing paraMeters
Unscheduling planned filter activity during national holidays can save customers energy and costs. Additional cleaning cycles can be planned during lunch breaks, to have the system in optimal condition at all times. In case of overtime, the working hours can easily be updated for some or all filters at once. This flexible
way of controlling the filter systems saves time and energy.
best friend of the hse Manager
Peter van Aken, vice president Sales and Marketing of Plymovent is extremely proud of this new portal. “I’m sure this portal will be the best friend of all HSE Managers, maximising the uptime and operational efficiency, while providing the best indoor air possible. I’m also very proud of the Plymovent team, who accomplished the built of this complex, but easy to use system.”

32 MarCh/aPrIl 2022 | InduStrIal CoMPlIanCe “The SICK Monitoring Box is so simple
and adaptable that the opportunities for condition monitoring are limited only by your imagination,” says Neil Sandhu, SICK UK product manager for measurement and systems. “Bolt on the SICK Monitoring Box and transparent information about the health of your machines is just a few short steps away. Depending on your requirements, information such as operating hours, wear, temperature, energy usage or level of contamination, turns into a valuable resource. “As a result, your machines and systems
become more available and efficient. Unplanned maintenance time is reduced and operating staff can be deployed more efficiently to respond to any issues that occur. You will extend the operating life of machines through a better understanding of historical trends and patterns.”

ICK has launched The Monitoring Box, a simple system that enables plug-and-play condition monitoring and preventative maintenance of sensors,
machines, processes and plants. The SICK Monitoring Box can be adapted for diverse individual operating requirements to provide live status feedback and historical analysis, supporting more effective maintenance and optimised efficiency. With the SICK Monitoring Box, all kinds
of industrial operations from manufacturing and logistics to ports, transport systems or waste management facilities, can begin to digitalise their processes on the road to Industry 4.0. Enabled by pre-configured Apps on a wide range of SICK sensors, the Monitoring Box provides transparent data monitoring through an intuitive, browser- based dashboard for desktop or mobile devices. Device data is processed via powerful IoT gateways to enable local data storage on a customer premises or via secure connection to the SICK cloud.
