"SiteWatch's EnMS helps me be more effective and efficient in managing our energy spend by having visibility into electricity, natural gas and water usage all on one platform!" — CIO, Packaging Industry
SiteWatch provides the most comprehensive, cost-effective energy management and machine reliability solutions available on the market today.
Electrical Energy Monitoring
SiteWatch utilizes Panoramic Power to deliver a comprehensive, intuitive energy monitoring system that relies on wireless, self-powered current sensors. SiteWatch provides the hardware, including sensors and data bridges, technical and scoping support, as well as ongoing consulting-type support to ensure that value is driven from collected data.
Optimize, the latest version of the Panoramic Power solution, expands on the original data platform to include expanded functionality, from alerts/triggers to simplified, accessible reporting.
All Data Types
SiteWatch uses an array of sensors to capture data. For electricity monitoring, we primarily offer the Panoramic Power solution, using clip-on, self-powered CTs. Other sensor families are used based on a specific project, whether to capture fluid pressure and temperature, tank level, vibration, or many other type of data.
SiteWatch monitoring captures this non-electricity data from many types of sensor manufacturers. All data — both electricity and non-electricity — can be transmitted wirelessly, stored on cloud-based servers, and analyzed by SiteWatch consulting engineers and software platform.

Fast, Simple Installation
IOT technology has transformed our ability to capture and transmit data wirelessly, from the sensors to the gateway via Bluetooth or LoraWAN, with onward transmission to cloud-based servers via Wi-Fi or cellular connection.
Installation is fast and simple, with the results visible within minutes of installation. Using clip-on sensors, SiteWatch can deploy hardware on 50+ machines in a single day — often without powering down equipment — while data flows almost immediately.
Secure Communication
Each group of sensors communicates with a bridge or gateway. These devices communicate directly with the cloud via Wi-Fi, wired network hubs, or cellular connection, which can eliminate IT security concerns.
Captured data is consolidated in the cloud, enabling centralized storage and detailed analysis. The all-data platform can also incorporate (through an API feed) data from existing Building Management Systems, or other existing monitoring systems. Data is presented to users as easy-to-use, real-time graphs, and can be applied to reports and alerts.
Transmission Range
Wireless sensor transmission range can vary from 50 feet to 500 feet depending on the construction and layout of the building. Connection points between sensors and bridges or gateways is planned carefully when developing a scope of work.
Upfront and Ongoing Engineering Support
We assign a two-person team to each customer, comprising a Professional Engineer and a Project Manager. They work with your team to define the project (scoping), supervise onsite installation of the hardware, train your personnel, and help set up the graphs, charts, reports and alerts to your requirements in the software.
There is no ‘per seat’ charge for the software, so your entire team can view the appropriate reports and alerts on their desktop, laptop, or mobile device.
Importantly, our engineers do not “disappear” after installation: our team remains involved with you, providing ongoing support through monthly reports and quarterly or semi-annual reviews designed to turn data into easily-understandable and actionable information resulting in energy savings and more reliable equipment.
Next Steps
SiteWatch monitoring solutions were designed and priced for any size of organization — small, medium or large. Since our monitoring sensors can be deployed quickly and wirelessly, installation of a full site can take place in less than a day (depending on equipment access and the types of sensors to be deployed). Because SiteWatch offers cloud-based services, the cost of onsite infrastructure is remarkably low. Some utility companies offer rebates and incentives to lower the cost even further.
To complete a SiteWatch 360 installation you do not need the help of system integrators, automation consultants, or software developers. Our engineers will guide you through our simple hardware installation process and will train your personnel in how to use our software platforms. Depending on a specific request, changes can be made by our developers within a few days.
To start the process and give you a firm proposal/quote, we need to know what kinds of data you want to collect (machines, systems, room conditions, etc.) and some other basis site information. Quotes for budgeting can be offered fairly quickly, within days of basic information being provided to SiteWatch.
