Solutions / Predictive Maintenance

Predict chiller and AHU failures before they happen

Vibration, temperature, and acoustic sensors on rotating HVAC assets provide early warning of bearing wear, impeller imbalance, and refrigerant issues.

Sensors & signals

What the sensors measure

Vibration (FFT)

3-axis MEMS accelerometer with on-device FFT processing. Frequency spectrum transmitted as a condensed signature rather than raw samples. Detects bearing fault frequencies (BPFO/BPFI), unbalance, and looseness.

Surface temperature

Magnetic-mount NTC thermistor reads compressor housing and bearing housing temperature. Rising temperature correlated with vibration anomalies increases alert confidence.

Acoustic emission

High-frequency acoustic sensor detects cavitation, valve chatter, and refrigerant leak hiss. Contact microphone mounted via waveguide rod; no airborne acoustic — captures only structure-borne emissions.

Alerting

From sensor to work order

MeshOS threshold alerts can connect to your CMMS via webhook. A vibration anomaly generates an alert record with sensor ID, asset tag, severity, and the FFT signature for your maintenance engineer.

  • Sensor reading arrives at gateway

    Thread mesh delivers FFT + temperature payload every 60 seconds

  • MeshOS evaluates against alert rules

    Configurable thresholds per asset type and per frequency band

  • Alert fires to CMMS webhook

    JSON payload with asset ID, timestamp, severity, and diagnostic context

  • Work order created in CMMS

    Your maintenance team gets a preventive task before the asset fails

Instrument your chillers before the next failure

We provision 5–10 sensors per asset as a 60-day proof of concept. No CMMS integration required for the pilot phase.
