SPIRIT IoT Platform: Real-Time Machine Monitoring Explained

How SPIRIT IoT platform monitors cycleWASH machines in real-time — water, battery, revenue, maintenance alerts. Frequently asked questions What data does SPIRIT collect? Per-cycle: start/end time, water use, energy use, wash type, payment method, anonymized user ID. Per-station: battery state-of-charge, solar generation, detergent level, pump pressure, ambient temperature. Aggregated at 1-second resolution, stored for 5 years, exportable as CSV or via REST API. How does predictive maintenance work? SPIRIT tracks vibration signatures, current draw, and pressure-curve shapes. When a bearing or pump starts trending toward failure, the signal deviates from baseline 30-90 days before actual breakdown. The platform raises a maintenance ticket with component and 2-week service window. What's the connectivity model? 4G LTE-M as primary, Wi-Fi as fallback, satellite uplink optional for remote sites. Monthly data: under 50 MB per station. Connection is encrypted TLS 1.3 with device certificates — no SIM-swap attack surface. Can I integrate SPIRIT data into my own dashboards? Yes. SPIRIT offers REST API and webhook endpoints for every event. Most operators integrate into Grafana, Tableau, or their ERP. We provide OpenAPI spec + example code for Python, Node.js, and Power BI.
