StruxureWare Power Monitoring Software

Critical business operations depend on the ability to maintain a reliable operation, reduce energy costs and get the most out of any electrical assets. StruxureWare Power Monitoring Expert software is a complete, interoperable and scalable supervisory software dedicated to power monitoring that enables the facility to maximise operation efficiency, optimise the power distribution system and ultimately improve bottom-line performance.

Real-time monitoring, alarms and power quality analysis helps avoid critical conditions that will most likely cause equipment failures and downtime. StruxureWare makes it simple to track consumption and the cost of power, gas and other resources and even allocate costs by building, department or process.

StruxureWare will reduce annual consumption as energy waste and unused system capacity will be uncovered and it highlights new ways to extend equipment performance and life span. StruxureWare is extremely flexible and lets you extend your power management system at a pace to suit your business, it is also an open system allowing for integration of third part devices and systems.
