Smart 'boiler plate' system

The system works in tandem with a smart phone using near field communication (NFC). It’s low cost and easy to use, providing instant electronic access to inspection data to ensure quick, safe and effective thermal inspection.

IRISS E Sentry Connect-IR uses the principle of inductive coupling to transfer information between the tag and the smart phone. As the communication device powers the tag, no batteries are required.  

The tag, which is activated when the phone is nearby, contains all of the information relating to the IR window and inspections that need to be completed, as well as historic data from previous inspections. It can also be programmed to automate tasks such as send a text message, go to a URL, launch an app and run a task on a smart phone; all stored data can be erased and re-written as needed.

The system can also back up the data, report alarms and transmit other alerts via the free IRISS app. As an option, this information can be uploaded to the cloud for access by asset managers. It provides a data exchange point for updating information from the inspections, for checking the assets’ operational state and for setting inspection routes.
