InduSuite™, ESAB’s platform of software applications for welding, cutting and robotics, has introduced FloCloud, a gas monitoring software solution. FloCloud combines GCE’s® trusted brand of gas control products with InduSuite’s proven WeldCloud software application platform to build a gas manifold with Mesh WiFi enabled pressure and flow sensors that communicate data to the FloCloud online application.
FloCloud features an easy-to-use analytics dashboard and reporting system that tracks every end user point and sends notifications if gas pressure drops or if gas flow is outside of WPS (Weld Procedure Specification) parameters, improving real-time data and reducing the need for manual checks.
Additionally, FloCloud tracks complete gas consumption per welding job, per welding operator and per overall project. This information is valuable for cost analysis and job estimating by easily allocating gas cost to a specific job/project to be more competitive in quotes and more profitable in projects.
FloCloud is built to withstand rigorous environments for mid- to high-volume gas users, which include gas distribution companies, welding in oil, gas and petrochemical operations, shipyard and off-shore applications, manufacturers of transportation, construction, mining and agricultural equipment for specialty gases in food and beverage, hospital and laboratory applications.
