High‑Impact Use Cases
Start where waste hides. Expand site‑wide on the same platform.
MCC/LDB, Compressed Air, Steam
Track PF, harmonics*, and loading on panels. Air leak detection via flow‑to‑load correlation. Boiler/steam efficiency trends.
Chiller plants & AHUs
kW/ton KPIs, condenser/evaporator deltas, coil health. Optimize staging and night set‑back.
Basements & Shopfloor
Integrates with Parking Light Automation (motion + LUX) for measurable savings and reports.
Solar PV, DG Sets, UPS
Generation vs. load matching, fuel & battery health, and export/import balance at PCC.
Admin, Labs, Warehouses
Cost center allocation, after‑hours consumption, and IAQ‑linked HVAC logic.
From Meter to Insight to Action
1. Instrument
Clip‑on CTs, retrofit energy meters (single/three‑phase), pulse readers. Keep existing panels and assets.
2. Connect
SNAS Spiral Mesh transports readings and commands reliably with no Wi‑Fi or SIM dependency.
3. Model
Map meters to lines, machines, and cost centers. Add tariffs (TOU, demand, penalties) and schedules.
4. Analyze
Trends, heatmaps, baselines vs. post‑improvement. Detect leakage, drifts, and anomalies automatically.
5. Act
Trigger alerts, tickets, and control rules (e.g., auto shutdown after idle, demand peak shaving windows).

* Harmonics analytics available with compatible meters.
FAQs
Do we need to replace existing meters?
No. We can read existing meters via pulse/Modbus and add smart meters only where needed. Clip‑on CTs avoid downtime.
Will EMS work without internet?
Yes. Data acquisition and automations run offline on SNAS Mesh. Cloud is optional for remote dashboards and reports.
How accurate are the readings?
We use industry‑grade meters; accuracy depends on class (e.g., Class 1 / 0.5S) chosen per use case and compliance requirements.
Can we allocate energy to cost centers and products?
Yes. Map meters to lines, machines, and products to compute unit energy cost (kWh/unit) for quoting and margin tracking.
How do you detect air leaks or weekend wastage?
We correlate flow/power with production schedules and send alerts on abnormal baseloads or off‑shift consumption.
Does it integrate with ERP/MES/BMS?
Yes. APIs/integrations are available. The core system runs independently and does not require external systems.
