The unique Howden digital twin is at the heart of the Howden Uptime solution. The Howden digital twin is a digital profile of the Howden product and has been purpose built for the individual products and applications. It compares the original design data, the set of parameters within which we know the equipment should be operating, with the operational data.
 
Identifying these differences in operation early allows for corrective actions to be put in place, mitigating risk that would have otherwise gone unnoticed and could result in unplanned downtime.

Howden Uptime provides a 24/7 real-time view of your equipment's operational performance, if any of the parameters fall outside the recommended limits then there will be an alert sent with corrective action.
 
The data is shown live on the Howden Uptime platform, which can be accessed anywhere with an internet connection. The dashboards on the platform show the master view of all assets, with an overview of the performance status, you are then able to drill down into each individual asset and component to show specific sensor data and trends.
 
Understanding how your equipment is operating and being able to identify potential breakdowns before they happen, reduces the risk of equipment failure and ultimately reduces unplanned and costly downtime.

Using the digital twin models, we provide a real-time assessment between the actual operating performance and the optimum equipment performance. As the original equipment manufacturers, we will use this data to advice on potential improvements to the installation.
 
This analysis enables the performance mapping of the equipment and corrective actions to bring its operation around the best efficiency point.
 
Operating the equipment more efficiently and being able to predict the optimum moment for replacing parts allows you to achieve improved efficiencies, reduce environmental impact and reduce energy costs.

The Howden Uptime solution provides a direct link to Howden experts, with our engineers close at hand at all times to provide expert guidance and support.
 
Through the secure platform, you get access to the most up to date manuals and drawings, generated health reports and a view of your operating trends over time.
