Connected buildings: Equipment monitoring

Monitoring and maintenance of connected station infrastructure equipment such as lighting and escalators.

SNCF Gares & Connexions has called on Kuzzle IoT, an Open Source IoT platform, to support its project to remotely monitor and control equipment at the Aix-en-Provence TGV station.

Using remote sensors, the Kuzzle IoT open-source IoT platform ensures information feedback and alerts technical teams in real time, so they can intervene as quickly as possible as soon as a malfunction is identified.

The SNCF optimizes its energy expenditure and warns of hardware failures to trigger preventive maintenance actions and thus guarantee passenger comfort.

1000 Connected equipment

50 Maintenance alerts per day

For SNCF Gares et Connexions, the first challenge is to know the state of its equipment and whether it’s working. Then, it’s a matter of “understanding the situations in which this equipment starts to malfunction.

Monitoring connected machines with Kuzzle IoT

Lighting zone

Real-time remote control of the station’s various lighting zones, with the ability to change lighting intensity with a single click, directly from the Kuzzle IoT application.

Elevators

Real-time monitoring of the station’s elevators and escalators: generation of real-time alerts in the event of malfunctions.

Energy

Measurement of energy production and consumption from photovoltaic panels on the station roof, which supply electricity to the electric vehicle charging stations in the parking lot.

Kuzzle IoT: a platform for Industry 4.0

Real-time remote management of connected station equipment with Kuzzle IoT:

Control of different lighting zones with light intensity changes from the Kuzzle IoT application.
Monitoring of elevators, escalators and automatic doors, with alerts in the event of malfunctions.
Manage temperature, heating and air conditioning in stations.
Monitor equipment efficiency and maintenance.
Measure air quality in buildings and set up alerts.
Monitoring the energy production and consumption of the photovoltaic panels that power the terminals for electric vehicles.

Review and projections

Real-time data visualization via a mobile/web application developed with Kuzzle IoT and latest-generation analytical tools enable the station’s technical management and maintenance teams to ensure precise control of equipment, gain greater responsiveness in dealing with anomalies and reduce energy expenditure.

In the future, connected infrastructures, combined with intelligent analysis systems, will be able to act autonomously to optimize energy expenditure and resources, to prevent faults and trigger preventive maintenance actions.
