• Remote monitoring is difficult - It's often not possible to monitor industrial equipment with sensors that require ethernet connections.
• You can now economically monitor that "always on" equipment.
• Use as either primary or backup monitoring for critical equipment. Super critical equipment can always use a backup monitor.
• Pipeline compressors
• Industrial air compressors
• Large electric motors
• Any electrical machinery
• Many businesses have a server room or closet with dedicated, critical air conditioning.
• Catch serious problems at the source, sometimes days before temperature monitors can.
• Temperature monitors can be hours late in helping you know a problem has occurred, giving you very little time to react before having to shut down machines.
• Since Virtjoule is monitoring at the source, you have the best early warning possible.

• Pump monitoring - Know when irrigation wells, powered by electricity or natural gas, stop running.
Irrigation motors can stop during growing season losing valuable time when
the crops need it most.
Virtjoule non-operation alerts can alert you by text, phone, or email as soon as a pump quits
for any reason.
Natural gas motors
Electric motors
Center pivot sprinklers malfunction or get stuck, shutting down the motor automatically.
Irrigation time is lost until the farmer discovers the sprinkler has stopped.
Lightning and power surges can trip electric well motors. Most will not come back on by themselves and even the smallest surge in
electricity can cut out a motor.
Critical livestock tanks are often maintained by small pumps and can stop running for a variety of reasons.
• Information is everything - There are many companies, large and small, that specialize in energy audits and building
re-commissioning. These are intensive studies where good information is invaluable.
• Pre-existing conditions - Any energy audit will start by collecting as much
existing information as possible. Virtjoule can quickly, economically, and temporarily gather critical
runtime and energy information for an energy audit.
• Pre-existing conditions - Unlike normal usb loggers, Virtjoule's information is nearly real time.
Recommissioning studies don't have to wait weeks until the loggers come back to start drawing conclusions.
• Pre-existing conditions - Unlike normal loggers, Virtjoule can be left on for longer periods of time. Equipment can and does
operate differently through the seasons. An economizer problem that shows up in spring may not be apparent in the summer. Normal studies can miss critical issues by not
monitoring long enough. Because Virtjoule's information is sent out over the cellular network, analysts can watch important behavior
throughout the year without returning to the site multiple times.
• No communications link with client or building is necessary -
Virtjoule is a solution partner with Verizon. Each device is its own cellular line and does not depend on the client or building ethernet connection.
• Savings that stick - These days, energy auditors and building re-commissioning
specialists are being driven to substantiate the savings claims they make and to show that those savings
are captured year after year for HVAC equipment and lighting. The only way that can be done is by
monitoring equipment for runtime and electrical loads for usage. Virtjoule provides a very economical way to monitor both small and large
equipment without a huge capital budget and project to retrofit monitoring capabilities.
• Multi-location businesses are hard to manage - It's difficult for maintenance staff or service
to be everywhere at the same time. Often times complaints don't come until the situation is bad.
• What if you could head off the complaints? - Virtjoule's monitoring system can detect problems before they become complaints.
• Multi-location businesses have to get the most out of each location -
It's important to know each branch location is operating efficiently. Changed thermostats and poor programming can leave
many branches operating 24 hrs a day, wasting money and energy, even though they operate reduced hours.
