Atek Access Technologies, developer of the TankScan remote tank monitoring solution, has announced AssetScan, a suite of hardware, software and data analytic services that allow original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) to connect products to the ‘industrial internet of things.’ AssetScan captures any variable and transmits it to the cloud, where it can be accessed via the web-based Atek Intelligence Platform.
The platform monitors system health remotely, including battery life, temperature and cellular data usage. Atek president Sherri McDaniel said, ‘We are building on years of remote asset management experience in tank monitoring and applying it to new markets. AssetScan delivers the power of analytics to our OEM partners, helping them to differentiate their products and create a competitive advantage.’
Customers can access the platform data base via API calls to create and manipulate their own copy. Purviews can be configured by security levels for each user type. Displays are customizable to different endpoints. AssetScan also functions as an alerting system, sending text and email messages to those users configured to receive them. Alerts can be configured at different levels and triggered by any process variable.
