Monitoring Platform for Beverage Draft Installations
The S-Guard is a monitoring platform for any beer draft installations. It constantly monitors critical parameters of a beverage installation and immediately warns via email when one of these parameters is out of a preset range.
This is a proactive approach to maintenance calls, that allows to properly manage in a timely matter what could eventually become a catastrophic situation that can generate costly downtimes.
- When the cold room temperature is not set at proper temperature
- When the most consumed beer kegs are not managed properly and connected at an improper temperature
- When the ambient temperature is too high to allow proper operation of refrigeration units
- When the recirculating glycol temperature does not guarantee proper beer temperature
- When the bulk, beer or air compressor pressures fall below correct operational values
- When the recirculation glycol pumps are losing their efficiency
Through a simple Management Interface, the installer can set all needed parameters, from: name of location, email settings (recipients of warnings) to temperature, pressure and glycol flowrate thresholds, calibrate temperature sensors and enable and disable emails.
Through a Query page, users can select a range of dates to view all activity. The information can be viewed directly on a smart device or a file can be downloaded in an excel format. The data is saved internally and available for at least 3 months. This data can be valuable especially when needed to justify a technical call.
A real time Live Data page allows to view all parameters and aid during installation for proper glycol/cooling dimensioning. Color codes indicate status of sensor.
The S-Guard can be connected to the internet via an ethernet port to the router. Should a router not be available the unit can be connected via Wireless networks (GSM).
Every email will contain the location of the unit, along with specific warning or restored information and a comprehensive graph chart of the specific sensor. This will give instant quantitative and qualitative information about the fault for quick diagnosis. So, make sure you are the First To Know!
