THE CHALLENGE

Keep plant air pressure and compressor health in clear view.

Compressed air supports pneumatic tools, actuators, and production equipment throughout industrial plants. A local gauge provides only a snapshot: pressure can change as demand shifts, and developing compressor problems can go unnoticed between inspections. Teams need visibility into both the air delivered to production and the rotating equipment that supplies it.

The UptimeIQ solution

UptimeIQ brings air pressure and compressor vibration into one monitoring approach. Wired or wireless pressure sensors can monitor selected headers, branches, and critical points of use. Vibration sensors track changes on compressor motors and suitable bearing locations. Custom dashboards show pressure and vibration trends together, with configured alerts that bring abnormal conditions to the team’s attention. Cloud-hosted or on-premise visualization can be selected to suit the plant.

What the application delivers

  • Visibility into pressure at selected plant locations
  • Low-pressure alerts that help teams respond to changing conditions
  • Vibration trends that support earlier investigation of compressor changes
  • Better information for troubleshooting and maintenance planning

Start with a critical compressor and the air pressure points that matter most to production. UptimeIQ can help define sensor locations, operating ranges, alert thresholds, and a dashboard suited to the maintenance team.
