Sustainability – small products, big impact

When it comes to SUSTAINABILITY, often small wins BIG.

What are some drivers of sustainability?  Smaller environmental impact? Less or better use of resources (including re-use or recycling)? Implementation of sustainable systems – ones that are in balance and have self-sustaining feedback loops… like that classic toy – the Newton’s cradle, which demonstrates the conservation of momentum and the conservation of energy with swinging spheres?

Sustainability is becoming important to consumers and stakeholders across industries. For infrastructure owners and stakeholders, our products can help.

Resensys’ products provide solutions and peace of mind by delivering high-quality, real-time data, analytics and alerts using our sensitive, robust yet easy to install sensors and data logging/ client interface and interpretation system.   Our products allow asset owners to make data-based engineering decisions that could result in longer asset life.  This means the potential to reduce unnecessary consumption of resources if decisions can be made that result in prolonging infrastructure life while maintaining safety and functionality.

Resensys’ products are also sustainable due to their innovative product design:

• SenSpots™ are WIRELESS.  This means that they have a smaller installed footprint than wired sensors, and unlike for wired sensors, additional equipment, resources and time is not needed to install communications or power infrastructure. This can make them lower cost, but also more sustainable.
• SenSpots™ are ULTRA-LOW POWER.  As a result of Resensys’ patented technology, they have a 10-yr battery life using small CR123Abattery. Low power usage means fewer batteries for the monitoring duration.  This reduces the hassle and resources required for maintenance as Resensys’ Sensports™ are virtually maintenance-free after installation and do not require re-calibration. 
• SeniMax™ is ENERGY SELF-SUFFICIENT, combining solar power with a rechargeable battery to ensure no loss of data in cloudy conditions.  By using solar power where possible for our systems, non-renewable energy use is minimized and our systems can operate effectively and dependably in remote locations.

Resensys’ products are often selected for their quality, reliability, accuracy, sensitivity and flexibility; or for their user-friendly analytics, alerts and data interpretation; or for their cost-effectiveness and ease of installation.  Their contribution to sustainability is another factor that should also be considered.
