The challenge
The plant requires constant oversight to ensure smooth operation. A clear overview of measuring devices is essential, similar to an electrical diagram. Netilion’s folder structure is organized to follow the wastewater treatment steps, containing digital twins of devices and their documentation. This ensures all information is digitally structured and aligned with the plant’s actual setup.
Solution
Endress+Hauser’s devices capture and organize data, ensuring it is accessible when and where needed. Documentation like manuals and maintenance histories is stored with digital twins, enabling employees to find information or add files, such as installation photos. Service technicians can save reports, while structured folders provide a process overview and aid onboarding. Netilion can integrate data from other manufacturers via its app, creating digital twins automatically.
