2015 YEAR IN REVIEW
Solar™ Insight System™ (continued)
Solar™ InSight System™ helps customers better manage risk with predictive alerts before machine faults happen and
provides customers with real time access to their equipment via a mobile app. Customers don’t see problems
because Solar InSight, and the Fleet Manager, are anticipating them. The proof is in the numbers. Solar has
avoided more than 450,000 hours of unplanned downtime for its customers.
As Leon puts it, those results happen even faster when data is available and people – from
product support to design engineers to dedicated fleet managers – work in harmony.
“We’re providing the technology, but they’re the ones who are interfacing with the
customer and know the site, the control system and the equipment,” Leon says.
“Having the data and information now in your pocket is kind of like having electricity in
the home – once you had it, you couldn’t figure out how you could ever live without it,”
Leon said. “We are accelerating the development of new capabilities. It’s a race without
a finish line.”
Solar has avoided more
than 435,000 hours of
unplanned downtime
for its customers.
1966 Originally installed in 1966, these five
SATURN GAS TURBINES have been operating
in Centerville, Louisiana, for five decades. “I want
them to run for another 50 years.” – Bobby Newsom,
Controls Technician and Electrician, Trunkline
Gas Company.
