What do all of these OEM applications have in common?
Cooling towers Biomass boilers
Snow machines Asphalt laying trucks
Emergency Water Standpipes Pest control heat pods
Water Purifiers Dust monitoring instruments
Industrial cooling machinery Voltage optimisers
Industrial Compactors Medical waste incinerators
Just a few examples in the last couple of months where we have provided end to end solutions for Internet of Things, or remote monitoring of industrial OEM applications using our universal RTU unit the NanoULTRA and the CDL SmartHub™.
Lets look at these in a bit more detail:
1 End to End Solutions

You know your business. We know ours.
Ours is to get critical information all the way from your OEM products wherever in the world they are, to our SmartHub and so provide you with access to real time information & functionality that will allow you to improve your business.
2 Industrial Internet of Things

We specialise in getting data and control signals to and from industrial equipment. This allows you to manage your portfolio of remote assets with the benefit of valuable data and insights. For example:
- never send a service engineer to a job with the wrong information or parts
- never negotiate with a client without their actual usage data available
- Know for sure the performance trends of certain product types
- Commission or calibrate difficult to access equipment via BLE
- Improve customer service.
- Reduce costs.
- Grow revenues.
3 OEM Applications

If your product has any sort of control system, operating system or sensors onboard, analogue or digital, then the chances are we can communicate with it, retrieve data, access the onboard systems such as Modbus. Over the last decade we have worked with literally hundreds of different OEM products, each with their own flavour of systems and sensors. Just as important is the experience we have gained working with so many OEM’s in understanding how they get value and return on investment from IoT.
4 The NanoULTRA, universal Remote Telemetry Unit

We developed the NanoULTRA to meet specific client needs – because there is nothing quite like it on the market… with super low power consumption to make battery operation viable, and with the widest range of i/o’s [analogue, digital, serial] plus optional GPS and CANbus, with full FOTA [Firmware over the air] to both the modem and the microcontroller, on board intelligence, and an on board SD card “flight recorder”.
Designed from the PCB upwards for robustness, the NanoULTRA offers simple connectivity and plug and play connection to the CDL SmartHub.
5 The CDL SMartHub™

As soon as it is powered up the NanoULTRA becomes visible on your own SmartHub, from where you can easily set it up, configure it and start to track data, receive alerts, visualise your operations by uploading graphics, pictures etc., receive management reports, grant access to staff and clients, view audit trails, select languages, etc.
The CDL SmartHub is available on any internet device via any browser with no software to buy or load.
The combination of NanoULTRA and CDL SmartHub offers seamless and secure connectivity, so you run your business more effectively with a little help form our business!
