Internet of Things (IoT)
Let us bring stronger connections to your workplace.
What Is the Internet of Things?
The internet changed everything about how we conduct business, and it is still transforming things today. You’ve probably heard about all the smart home devices connected to the internet that you can now have in your house. The concept of the internet of things (IoT) refers to any device that is turned on/off or controlled over the internet.
Why Connect Everything to the Internet?
In the home, these connections make everything easier by eliminating any wasted time in operating a device. You can change your house’s temperature from your phone before you’re even in the driveway. Your watch can sync to your phone and tell you who is calling before you ever pull it out of your pocket. It is all about efficiency and not wasting time or energy.
How Is the Industrial Internet of Things Different?
In your industrial facility or commercial building, we can use the same principles of smart devices and IoT solutions to revolutionize the way you use your machinery and maintain your facility. The industrial internet of things (IIoT) covers any networked devices, interconnected sensors, or instruments that you are using. IoT technologies like this reduce wasted energy and make your operations productive overall.
How Will IoT Applications Help Your Facility?
Some industrial internet of things applications can tie everything you do together through networking. This ability to connect offers several advantages for your business. Every application can be customized to your needs and the details of your operations. The team at PCS Energy has experience in shaping the perfect connected system for your business. We have an in-depth understanding of electrical contracting, process automation, and custom control panels.
Depending on your needs, we could set up tools you could control from offsite to give you more freedom and flexibility. IoT devices can also be programmed to take automated actions on your behalf. They can make automatic adjustments in real-time across multiple locations all at the same time. You’ll set up the operational parameters and leave the IoT platform to respond to input like environmental monitoring and other collected data. These devices and programs will react faster than any human being ever could, which makes your workplace more productive. It also adds a layer of safety when it comes to responding to emergency situations.
