Sensors are a key component to overseeing facilities . However , many sensing options generate installation and maintenance challenges that weigh against their benefits . DCO Systems offer affordable , simple to use energy harvesting sensors that provide immediate benefits and solve many issues faced on sites today .
During lockdowns , facilities managers without remote monitoring found it more difficult to detect failures or diagnose faults . Scheduling an electrical engineer to wire in sensors also became much more difficult . At the same , those with battery-powered sensors found them constrained by infrequent updates , giving them only snapshots and partial sets the data they needed .
