Indicating Operational Status of Boiler Room
Challenge: Avoiding costly repairs of routine maintenance issues is a common challenge that building managers run into when managing an apartment building. The boiler room can experience malfunctions that cause costly downtime, especially when there is no clear indication of potential problems prior to failure. The building manager wanted to find a long-term solution so that they could identify maintenance issues quickly and accurately.
Solution: The building manager worked with Banner Engineering to find a solution to this problem. They placed K100 Pro Indicator beacons on each boiler and maintenance panel to address this ongoing problem. The beacons were used to communicate the operational status of each individual boiler. When green, employees quickly and easily understand that the boiler is functioning properly. Workers were able to program the K100s to appear magenta when maintenance would be needed soon and red when the boiler was powered down or when a critical error was detected. By using Banner’s free Pro Editor Software in these DC models, this customer was able to easily configure this state and others for intuitive status communication.
