Powerstar, UK manufacturer of smart energy solutions, has announced an enhancement to its Powerstar MAX variable voltage optimisation solution<\/a><\/strong> that provides new functionality and offers customers increased visibility of their electricity profile and asset performance.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Developed in-house by Powerstar\u2019s research and development team, in-line with the advancement of Industry 4.0, all Powerstar MAX systems will be manufactured with an online remote monitoring platform which replaces the previous Human Machine Interface (HMI) on the front of the system. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Smart cloud-based reporting and monitoring platform is provided as standard and delivers greater insights <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The smart cloud-based reporting and monitoring platform is provided as standard and delivers greater insights into everything from energy usage to maintenance activities, data trends, electricity consumption, savings achieved and electricity profiles \u2013 all accessible from anywhere with a secure internet connection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The online functionality gives Powerstar the ability to remotely perform updates and software upgrades to systems as required, reducing the need for site visits. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

While in-depth reporting on the performance of the system means users can access their energy saving solutions operational data and trends in real-time, aiding decisions on further energy optimisations and maintenance activities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As part of this improvement, a dedicated Powerstar remote service team will also be in place to provide continuous remote support for the systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ideal for a wide range of businesses both in the private and public sector, including manufacturing, industrial, retail, healthcare, education and more, Powerstar MAX, as a dynamic system, analyses and matches incoming voltage supply, ensuring it remains at an optimum level for operational requirements of onsite electrical equipment by maintaining a constant output, even for sites with unstable voltage profiles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This, in turn, provides significant reductions in electricity consumption and costs, as well as carbon emissions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
