Integrated Management System (IMS)
Overview
What is the IMS?
The Neptronic IMS, or the Integrated Management System, is an app-based software platform designed for HVAC management in small to medium-sized commercial buildings. It hosts a portfolio of preprogrammed apps to control and manage HVAC components such as rooftop units, fan coils, VAVs, heaters, and humidifiers. Optional cloud connectivity allows for remote access and management, enhancing real-time decision-making and responsiveness.
How does it work?
The IMS simplifies management of HVAC equipment by minimizing the need for extensive programming, specialized personnel, or certified training. It offers pre-configured application templates that automate controller setup and user interface configuration. It streamlines commissioning, troubleshooting, and maintenance, resulting in reduced costs. Designed for seamless integration, the IMS easily connects with native BACnet or Modbus products with minimal configuration. It also supports cloud-based audit logs, alarm reporting, ticketing systems, and customizable dashboards.
Who is it for?
The IMS is intended for mechanical contractors, building managers, system integrators, and maintenance personnel who need an efficient, easy-to-deploy HVAC management system. It is ideal for sites with or without Internet access and caters to facilities that previously could not afford advanced HVAC management systems due to high costs.
What are the benefits?
- Minimizes the need for extensive training with preconfigured templates and automated setup.
- Reduces installation and commissioning time from days to hours with automated processes .
- Offers robust alarm reporting, historical data analytics, and cloud connectivity.
- Supports remote management and real-time data access, even with limited Internet connectivity.
- Provides a comprehensive solution at a lower cost compared to traditional systems.
Is it right for me?
The IMS is ideal for mechanical contractors, system integrators, and managers of light commercial building looking to reduce installation time and associated costs. If you seek an integrated solution with advanced features and minimal setup, the IMS offers scalability and compatibility with existing systems, making it a user-friendly alternative to traditional building automation systems (BAS).
