HIGHLIGHTS
- Industrial operators use the AdiNexus Industrial IoT Gateway to collect and centralize energy data from energy meters, power meters, electrical equipment, machines, PLCs, and other connected devices.
- The gateway connects energy meters, power meters, electrical panels, machines, PLCs, sensors, and other plant equipment into a unified energy data collection environment.
- Multi-protocol connectivity enables integration between energy monitoring devices, SCADA platforms, and cloud monitoring applications.
- Edge data processing supports real-time energy data acquisition, local processing, event detection, and data logging—even during network interruptions.
- Secure remote connectivity allows operators to monitor power consumption, electrical parameters, equipment energy usage, and energy conditions from centralized locations.
The Challenge – Managing Industrial Energy Data
Industrial facilities can contain multiple electrical systems, machines, production lines, and energy-consuming equipment distributed across different areas. Each system generates electrical and energy-related data that can help operators understand plant consumption and equipment performance.
Collecting this information from different energy meters and electrical systems and making it available through a centralized platform can be challenging without a dedicated industrial data connectivity layer.
Distributed Energy Data
Energy meters, power meters, machines, and electrical equipment generate consumption and electrical information across different areas of the facility.
Limited Centralized Visibility
Operators may not have a single view of power consumption, electrical parameters, and equipment energy usage across the plant.
Multiple Energy Monitoring Devices
Different meters, controllers, machines, and electrical devices may use different communication protocols and interfaces.
Energy Monitoring Gaps
Energy consumption, voltage, current, power, and other electrical parameters may need to be collected from multiple sources before they can be analyzed centrally.
Delayed Energy Event Detection
Abnormal power conditions, equipment energy changes, communication failures, or configured threshold events may not be immediately visible to the central operations team.
Disconnected Energy Systems
Energy data may remain separated from SCADA, cloud dashboards, energy analytics, and centralized plant monitoring applications.
