“ Once fitted Senzit will connect directly to the network wherever you are in the world ”
Charles Vaillant , Chief Technical Officer
like this , Vaillant says . “ In construction , mining and agriculture , three of our key markets , they are working in the dustiest conditions imaginable . They get through a lot of filters and they really don ’ t have a good way to know when to change them .”
Smart filters are no longer pie in the sky . In November 2017 at CES in Las Vegas MANN + HUMMEL launched its new digital product Senzit . It measures data such as the status of the air filters of agricultural and construction machines in real time and transmits the results to the user ’ s mobile device . The smart device creates added value for users by displaying the load status of the air filter as well as its remaining service life and machine hours completed .
It is convenient , saves time , reduces maintenance costs , protects the engine and makes it possible to utilize the full capacity of the air filter . “ There are 10 sensors within Senzit ,” enthuses Vaillant . “ It measures pressure , humidity , temperature , and it has GPS and 2G / 3G connection . Senzit is installed directly at the service port of the air filter housing and is suitable for almost all vehicles and all air filter brands , even older ones . Once fitted it will connect directly to the network wherever you are in the world and stream the data to the cloud . From the cloud we push the data back , after we have run some machine learning algorithms , either direct to the customer or to a web portal – it ’ s their choice .”
