highly configurable pressure monitoring
device for critical room environments

customer background

Our customer is a US-based company with extensive experience in manufacturing pressure-sensing devices for almost every industry, including the agricultural, medical, and semi-conductor industries. Over 26,000 people are employed worldwide to drive their innovative designs and to develop their sensing devices.

customer need

Our customer sought a highly customisable monitoring and control device that connected their next-gen pressure monitoring equipment, and enabled support for BACnet as well as proprietary protocols. Softdel’s robust expertise with hardware product engineering, decades of experience with the BACnet protocol, and familiarity with ‘Human-Machine Interface’ (HMI) and application development encouraged the customer to choose us as their development partner.
