Quick Snapshot
Norway’s largest plastic pipe systems manufacturer faced a tangle of manual configurations and no real-time insight. We built a BLE-enabled switch paired with a mobile app that simplified setup, enabled on-the-go monitoring, and delivered secure, proactive error alerts—keeping frost away without missing a beat.
Brief
For Norway’s leading plastic pipe manufacturer, frost protection wasn’t just a product—it was an essential layer of safety across pressure drainage and isothermal water systems. But the current system was far from smart: cable setups were manual, diagnostics were delayed, and error handling meant field calls.
Technostacks stepped in to engineer a modern, mobile-first solution. We developed an IoT-powered platform that seamlessly integrated BLE devices with a robust mobile app—enabling users to set up, monitor, and maintain heating cables directly from their phones. The result? Simplified operations, real-time visibility, and smart control—no toolbox required.
Challenges
Manual Setup Headaches
Each heating cable configuration involved tedious steps for setting cable type, length, and temperature limits—inviting errors and delays.
Zero Remote Visibility
Technicians couldn’t monitor power output or temperature without physically accessing the control panel.
Reactive Error Resolution
Errors like sensor failures or power issues surfaced only after damage was done—slowing down maintenance and increasing service calls.
No Access Control
All settings were exposed, with no role-based restrictions—opening the door to unauthorized or accidental misconfigurations.
Inflexibility for Firmware Updates
Legacy systems lacked the ability to evolve with time—missing critical security or performance upgrades.
Solution
We engineered a BLE-based ecosystem that paired hardware innovation with intuitive software control.
