CHESTER
Current

CHESTER Current is a configurable device designed to monitor the current profile of a machine or device, featuring wireless connectivity (NB-IoT / LTE-M / LoRaWAN). It enables machine activity monitoring and helps optimize energy efficiency.


Applications:
machine activity monitoring, fault detection on production lines, solar panel efficiency monitoring, etc.

Product overview

Typical use cases

CHESTER Current can be seamlessly integrated into renewable energy  platforms to send reports of equipment failure from afar.

The immense utility of the device also provides the means for the monitoring of manufacturing machines efficiency.

With CHESTER Current, you can obtain the Overall Equipment Efficiency (OEE) of your production line, and see machine utilization.

Among other applications, our device facilitates predictive maintenance by detecting in advance when machines require servicing.
