Dental Offices

Challenge

  • Need to be able to monitor vacuums and compressors to determine if operational or not.
  • When these items fail, there is a short window (1-2 hours) to troubleshoot before closing an office.
  • Motor failure is not recognized until the second motor goes down. (Goal is to try to maintain redundancy and catch first motor failure).
  • 1 compressor at each location (2 motors/compressor and compressor has cycle off times).
  • 1-2 vacuums at each location (2 pumps on a vacuum and vacuum runs non-stop).

Monetized Impact of the Issue

Loss of Revenue

  • 1-3 office closures/week from equipment failure
  • $5 K - 30 K daily revenue (approximately $1.5 M annual loss)

Flood Damage

  • Flood once every 6 months from loose hose connections to vacuums.
  • The average damage claim is close to $80 K per occurrence.

Air Compressor and Vacuum Pump Monitoring/Alarming

Using a combination of sensitive air pressure sensors and compressor motor amp draw current transformers (CTs) we can accurately predict motor failure and send an alert to the appropriate personnel before a catastrophic shutdown occurs eliminating lost revenue due to clinic closures.
