DISTRICT ENERGY STORY
THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AUSTIN
To reduce unexpected equipment failures, unplanned maintenance activities, and outage time, UT Austin chose HanAra Software’s HanPHI solution as its condition-based predictive monitoring solution.
With the implementation of HanPHI, HanAra provided the UT Austin team with the information to simplify and speed-up the decision-making and maintenance process. With a centralized location for data and the capacity to utilize predictive maintenance, HanPHI also eliminates redundant and unnecessary maintenance and support costs.
With the implementation of HanPHI, we now have usable data. Without manual calculations and long hours, we have the ability for deep insight into all of our systems, which allows us to optimize our efficiency.
