Remote situational awareness of substation status when alerts occur.
When an anomaly occurred at a substation, only "major fault" or "minor fault" alerts were notified. This created a burden in the preliminary preparation required to gather the necessary tools and materials before rushing to the site. By using the remote photography function of lc-20 + lilz gauge (AI cloud software for automatic reading of indicator lights ON/OFF), it is possible to capture images at any timing by issuing commands from the AI cloud software via a PC or tablet when a failure occurs. Since you can check not only the data values but also the actual images, you can grasp the onsite situation without traveling to the scene, allowing for the optimization of your response.
Digital Transformation (DX) for Fire Service Act Inspections: Powered by LiLz Guard and Robotics
Under the Fire Service Act, a fire safety plan must be created for each building, and routine self-inspection items are established. Among these, items such as evacuation routes, fire protection equipment, and fire extinguishers must primarily be confirmed through visual inspection. By introducing LC-20 + LiLz Guard, it becomes possible to automatically detect if obstacles are placed in front of fire safety equipment. This enables remote monitoring and streamlines routine inspection patrols within the building.
Remote Monitoring of Drain Pans in Hard-to-Reach AHUs and Cooling Towers
Drain pan leakage is a major concern as it causes ceiling stains and mold, leading directly to tenant complaints. While regular inspections are essential, physical access to the interior of the equipment is often hindered by travel costs, confined spaces, and the need for tenant coordination. These hurdles make both routine maintenance and initial response during emergencies highly inefficient. To address these challenges, we offer a remote monitoring solution that combines our LC-20—a business-card-sized compact color camera—with LiLz Guard, a cloud-based AI that quantifies and automatically detects equipment anomalies. This system allows you to remotely monitor drain pans to identify contamination levels and early signs of clogging. By shifting to predictive maintenance, you can optimize your troubleshooting preparations and significantly improve overall operational efficiency.
Improving LPG Terminal Maintenance with On-Site Data Visibility
At LPG storage terminals, there are numerous inspection items that must be monitored, including storage tank internal pressure, liquid level, temperature, vapor pressure, signs of surging, and the motor current and discharge pressure of LPG pumps (liquid transfer pumps). Many of these facilities are classified as hazardous areas, where inspections have traditionally relied on visual checks conducted from a safe distance and manual, handwritten records. In addition, securing skilled personnel has become increasingly difficult, and the burden of patrols during nighttime hours or severe weather has continued to grow. To address these challenges, we deployed the LC-EX10, a device designed for use in hazardous areas and well suited for remote visual inspection, across the facility. Cameras are installed at fixed points to capture images of gauges around the tanks and indicators and ammeters on pump control panels. These readings are then automatically interpreted by AI and converted into time-series data, replacing conventional inspection workflows. Because the system is completely wireless and requires no construction work, it can deployed without any shutdowns, significantly reducing both operational and financial barriers to adoption. Thanks to the LC-EX10 cameras, inspection frequency is maintained while overall labor requirements are reduced. Any fluctuations of monitored gauges that exceed predefined thresholds are immediately detected and reported via email or chat, with supporting historical data available on the same screen. This demonstrates how DX initiatives can be implemented quickly, even in environments where digital tools have traditionally been difficult to adopt.
Cutting Patrol Inspection Costs with Remote Fuel Oil Tank Monitoring
Daily travel to tanks located in secondary sites is time-consuming. In addition, inspections often require entry into hazardous areas, increasing safety risks. By combining LC-EX10 with LiLz Gauge, you can automate remote level monitoring. Remaining volumes can be tracked remotely, with automatic alerts triggered when levels fall below preset thresholds—reducing patrol inspection workloads. This also minimizes frequency of entries into hazardous areas, helping prevent accidents.
