A solar water-heating system is a common renewable-energy solution in modern buildings, but its performance relies on weather, water temperature, pressure, and circulation. Without real-time monitoring, a single glitch can cut hot-water supply across an entire building, silently wasting energy or damaging equipment.

The rooftop system delivers daily hot water across an expansive office campus, but when piping weaves through multiple buildings, technicians waste precious time tracing faults, each extra minute raising the risk of an outage.

Today, businesses ask, “Is there a smarter way to manage energy?”

Yes—the answer is Weincloud.

Key Widgets and Highlights

• Value Widget: Presents Key Metrics at a Glance

The system’s key metrics are presented via Value widgets, allowing managers to view crucial information—such as total operating hours, tank status, and booster-pump inlet pressure—without switching pages, significantly reducing information gaps and making management more intuitive.

• Trend Widget: Shows Historical Water-Temperature Changes

Trend widgets log real-time inlet and outlet water-temperature changes, ideal for assessing heating efficiency and circulation. Long-term data records enable predictive maintenance, enhancing system stability and energy efficiency.

• Bar Chart & Progress Ring Widget: Displays Energy Storage and Usage

The Progress Ring widget clearly shows the stored energy percentage of four solar arrays, while the Bar Chart displays the power consumption of three booster pumps, helping managers quickly compare storage levels and energy use. If any device shows an anomaly, maintenance staff can intervene early to prevent system overload.

• Lamp/Switch Widget: Indicates Equipment Operating Status

When booster pumps start, they consume solar power, impacting overall energy efficiency and hot-water supply stability. Lamp/Switch widgets help managers verify each device’s operational status, ensuring full activation during peak winter demand. If needed, operators can also log in to control and configure settings.

• Alarm Display Widget: Tracks and Alerts on Critical Value Thresholds

If any device exceeds its warning threshold, the Alarm Display widget automatically reveals the device name and current status, alerting operators to respond quickly, reducing downtime and maintenance costs, and enhancing overall stability.
