Existing equipment,
monitored 24/7, unmanned
From leak detection and HVAC to elevators and security — monitor every building system from a single retrofit IoT layer.
Keep your existing equipment as-is. Just drop in a gateway and sensors. Remote monitoring, predictive maintenance, and automatic alerts cut inspection hours and turn maintenance into a revenue stream.
Challenges
Sound familiar?
Inspection labor and cost keep rising and squeezing the bottom line
Aging equipment demands more inspection hours, while a shrinking pool of technicians drives costs ever higher.
No unified view across multiple sites and equipment
Inspection records are scattered by location, so anomalies are caught late and damage spreads.
Post-sale maintenance is a missed revenue opportunity
Stuck in reactive "fix-when-broken" mode, unable to design subscription or predictive-maintenance services.
Sensors
A full sensor lineup for
total facility visibility
Leaks, current, vibration, open/close — obniz Now manages the right IoT sensor for every job in one place.
Feature 01
Battery-powered leak sensor, no installation required
Place under pipes, around HVAC units, in ceilings, or in basements to detect leaks and flooding 24/7. Battery-powered with zero wiring work — alerts go out instantly via email, phone, SMS, or Slack.
- No power supply, no wiring — set up in 5 seconds
- Proven in hotels, airports, train stations, and museums
- Prevents equipment damage and business interruption
Feature 02
Contact output and current detection
Just clamp it onto existing wiring to detect equipment activity, downtime, or abnormal current in real time, without contact. Spot output degradation and operational anomalies remotely, with no site visits.
- Attach to existing wiring — no equipment retrofit needed
- Works with elevators, HVAC, pumps, and compressors
- Visualizes runtime, abnormal current, and aging trends

Feature 03
Vibration sensor for anomaly detection
Stick it onto motors, fans, or pumps to catch early signs of bearing wear or shaft misalignment. The system learns the normal pattern and alerts you before failure occurs.
- Attach with double-sided tape or magnet
- Captures activity, noise, and vibration patterns together
- Prevents sudden breakdowns and enables planned maintenance

Feature 04
Time and open/close sensors for room utilization analytics
Visualize room and facility usage patterns from door, window, and cabinet open/close logs. Use occupancy data to optimize energy, layout, and operations.
- Utilization analytics for meeting rooms, warehouses, server rooms, and stores
- Auto-logs open/close timing, dwell time, and usage frequency
- Optimizes HVAC, lighting, and cleaning routes
Activity Log
Specialized scenario
Leak detection comes built in
Drop-in sensors monitor pipes, ceilings, and HVAC drain lines for water leaks 24/7. Detection triggers instant alerts via email, phone, SMS, or Slack.
Hotels & venues
Detects HVAC drain overflows. Prevents equipment damage and business interruption.
Airports & stations
Catches ceiling leaks early and ties into alarms. Minimizes passenger impact.
Museums & heritage buildings
Protects priceless collections and architecture from water damage. Early detection limits the spread.
Notifications: email / SMS / phone (auto-voice) / webhook / Slack
Predictive maintenance
Catch failures before they happen
Stream operational data into the cloud, detect output degradation and abnormal patterns, and shift maintenance from reactive "fix-when-broken" to planned, condition-based work.
Data capture
Stream connection status, run count, error count, power state, and output values in real time.
Cloud storage
Securely stored in obniz Cloud to track long-term trends.
Anomaly detection
Monitors deviation from baseline and auto-detects degradation and abnormal patterns.
Alerts
Auto-notifies stakeholders via email, phone, or SMS to enable planned response.
Prevent sudden breakdowns
Spot trend-based warning signs and replace parts on schedule. Avoid unexpected downtime.
Optimize maintenance cost
Cut unnecessary scheduled visits. Condition-based maintenance means action only when it is needed.
Higher-value service contracts
Move from "fix when broken" to "fix before broken." Predictive maintenance lifts the value of every service contract.
