Case Study: Labs at the University of California SF
Prior to integrating technology, the university lab staff manually checked temperatures, UPS alarms and switched liquid nitrogen tanks when they were running low. Dr. David Agard wanted a fully automated maintenance process and a system that would alert the staff when problems occurred or tanks were low. Dr. Agard connected Particle sensors to a few different IoT platforms but Losant’s capabilities won him over due to the ability to customize dashboards and trigger text and email alerts. Using the Losant Enterprise IoT Platform, Agard successfully configured a condition-based maintenance solution to monitor and protect the valuable equipment in the lab.
