Have confidence that things are running smoothly, even if you're 100 miles away. Plant Operators and Managers can now oversee critical operations anywhere they have cell phone reception.

Real-time data is constantly communicated between your plant's control system (such as DrumTronic, BatchTronic, or Emultronic) and the MINDS LiveTank app.
Monitor boiler conditions such as hot oil temperature, warm oil Temperature, pump status, and burner status.

If the boiler or tanks aren't running within set parameters, you'll receive alerts on your phone telling you what the issues are.

Warnings are sent as text-based push notifications to your smart phone, while Faults play a loud sound on your smart phone as well as sending the text notification.
