Metis Engineering offers its range of configurable CAN-based environmental sensors; Cell Guard, H Guard, and Air Wise. Designed to address the crucial concerns of safety, emissions monitoring, and operational efficiency in Static Energy Storage, Electric Vehicle and HVAC industries, these sensors are expected to alter how engineers monitor and reduce risks within battery packs and hydrogen systems.
The collection of sensors from Metis Engineering can be used in a number of sectors, such as industrial facilities, energy storage, automotive, and aerospace. Because of their adaptable design and may interoperability, they may be readily modified for use in cutting-edge applications including next-generation battery systems and hydrogen refueling stations.
Cell Guard: Precision Monitoring for Lithium-Ion Batteries
Safety is still the top priority even though lithium-ion-based energy storage is getting robust. LFP and NMC battery health may be tracked in real time with Cell Guard, which includes early detection of cell venting, moisture intrusion, dewpoint, pressure variations, shock loads, and hydrogen produced by electrolysis inside battery packs.
This sensor increases the longevity and safety of energy storage systems by allowing sophisticated battery management systems to identify possible failure points before they worsen.
This is made possible by integrated CAN communication for smooth data transfer. Cell Guard is the key to predictive battery health management and offers crucial information for Battery Passports, making it perfect for electric vehicles, grid storage, battery R&D, and industrial applications.
H Guard: Hydrogen Leak Detection for the Future of Clean Energy
Leak detection becomes essential to safe operation as hydrogen becomes a more popular fuel for decarbonization. H Guard is made to identify even the tiniest hydrogen gas traces, guaranteeing prompt action before the gas builds up to dangerous levels.
Through CAN-based communication, H Guard offers real-time alerts for hydrogen-powered vehicles, fuel cells, and refueling stations, enabling operators to react to leaks right away.
It is an essential tool for bolstering the expansion of the clean hydrogen economy due to its precision and responsiveness.
Air Wise: Monitoring NOx and CO2 in HVAC and Ventilation Systems
Air quality monitoring is now required in a time of increased environmental consciousness. A high-precision sensor called Air Wise is made to measure the amounts of CO2 and NOx in HVAC systems, guaranteeing adequate ventilation and adherence to emissions standards.
In addition to detecting inefficiencies or possible system breakdowns that lead to excess emissions, this sensor assists facility managers in maintaining the best possible indoor air quality. Air Wise’s CAN integration allows for dynamic, data-driven ventilation system control, which lowers energy waste and enhances environmental sustainability.
- Seamless Integration: CAN-based communication ensures rapid and reliable data exchange with existing systems, simplifying deployment.
- Enhanced Safety: Early detection and rapid alerts prevent costly damage and dangerous incidents.
- Environmental Responsibility: Each environmental sensor supports sustainability goals by enhancing system efficiency and reducing harmful emissions.
