Remote Boiler Monitoring and Why You Need It

30 Mar Remote Boiler Monitoring and Why You Need It

Remote monitoring is an essential tool for industrial and commercial boiler maintenance and repair – the benefits of remote monitoring and how it can be used to manage boilerhouses efficiently are undeniable. We will specifically look at McKenna Boilers’ Remote Monitoring services and their use of the Autoflame Mk8 Data Transfer Interface technology.

Remote monitoring allows for real-time monitoring of critical boiler parameters such as temperature, pressure, and fuel consumption and boiler safety devices. This allows potential issues to be detected and addressed proactively, helping to save significant amounts of money in repair costs and minimize disruptions to operations. Remote monitoring also enables predictive maintenance, which helps avoid unexpected shutdowns and increases the lifespan of boilers. McKenna Boiler can schedule maintenance at the client’s convenience by analyzing data trends and patterns over time. This approach helps avoid lost productivity, revenue, and customer satisfaction.

Remote monitoring provides greater visibility into boiler performance, identifying areas for improvement to increase efficiency and reduce energy costs. McKenna Boilers’ Remote Monitoring services use the Autoflame Mk8 DTI to collect and store data from up to 10 boilers. This data can be accessed in real-time through the built-in touch screen or remotely through a local PC or Building Management System (BMS).

The Autoflame Mk8 DTI acts as a gateway, allowing for easy data transmission through an external source such as a BMS via RS422 or Ethernet link. The Mk8 DTI also supports Modbus protocol over Ethernet and RS422 as standard. The information gathered is instantly available for transmission, allowing clients to quickly and easily collect data on their boilers, ensuring they are operating as efficiently as possible.

McKenna Boilers’ Remote Monitoring services offer state-of-the-art technology that provides clients with real-time visibility into their boiler performance. The Mk8 DTI stores boiler data for a rolling 2-year period, allowing clients to analyze trends related to the performance of their boilers. This allows for quick responses if something appears off, reducing downtime and associated costs.

In conclusion, remote monitoring is an essential tool for industrial and commercial boiler maintenance and repair. McKenna Boilers’ Remote Monitoring services use the Autoflame Mk8 DTI to efficiently manage boilerhouses, allowing for real-time monitoring of critical parameters, predictive maintenance, and increased visibility into boiler performance. By working with McKenna Boiler, clients can reduce costs, save time, and improve energy efficiency. The Autoflame Mk8 DTI technology allows for easy data transmission, ensuring that clients can quickly and easily collect data on their boilers, ensuring they are operating as efficiently as possible.
