Move from “the fan is running” to knowing how the system is performing.

Ecogate combines machine activity, VFD power, gate status, air volume, velocity, and pressure into one connected operational picture.

Live operations, without walking the floor

See which workstations are active and compare power, savings, utilization, required airflow, measured velocity, fan pressure, and filter pressure by system.

Live Ecogate system dashboard

Document what changed—and when

Review historical trends, daily email reports, monthly reports, and month-to-month comparisons. Export savings, utilization, airflow, and VFD power when deeper analysis is needed.

Ecogate DataMining charts for savings, utilization, air volume, and VFD output power

Watch system health develop over time

Trend fan and filter pressure, then export system metrics, VFD power and savings, or workstation utilization for deeper analysis and reporting.

Compare multiple ventilation systems at a glance

View current power trends alongside each system’s fan power, savings, utilization, required air volume, velocity, and pressure metrics.

Turn ventilation data into decisions across the business.

The same operating data answers different questions for finance, maintenance, production, and engineering teams.

01 / ENERGY

Document energy performance

Compare measured fan power with the configured baseline and track accumulated kWh and cost savings over time.

02 / MAINTENANCE

Spot changes that deserve attention

Track fan and filter pressure, system events, communication quality, and device measurements so maintenance teams can investigate changes sooner.

03 / OPERATIONS

Understand real utilization

Identify which workstations are active or calling for collection, how often they run, and where layout, scheduling, or equipment decisions deserve a closer look.

04 / ENGINEERING

Plan around measured demand

Use measured operating patterns to support system changes, realistic peak-demand planning, airflow verification, and facility expansion decisions.

3%
Recorded cutting utilization

A proposed equipment purchase became a workflow improvement.

A senior engineer at a furniture manufacturer used Ecogate Analytics to discover that one of the factory's three table saws was utilized for only 3% of the shift. The team reorganized workflow and increased production without purchasing another saw.

Customer details anonymized for confidentiality.

The data starts at the workstation—not only at the fan.

Ecogate connects machine activity to gates, airflow, fan control, and reporting so the data reflects how the ventilation system is operating.

01

Activity sensors

Detect when a workstation needs dust, fume, or mist collection.

02

Smart Gates

Report status and, where equipped, measured pressure, velocity, and volume.

03

greenBOX

Coordinates demand, airflow requirements, connected devices, and system logic.

04

Power Master

Adjusts fan speed and reports measured VFD power back to the system.

05

Analytics

Turns system data into live views, history, summaries, and exports.

Available measurements depend on system configuration, connected sensors, gate type, and calibration.

Move from system-wide analytics to the exact part of the system that needs attention.

Ecogate software runs on EcogateOS, with analytics available through the greenBOX interface and the Ecogate Analytics cloud platform. Automatic airflow calibration streamlines commissioning and duct changes, while interactive listboxes configure filter warnings, pressure limits, low-air-volume alerts, and other I/O behavior—without custom programming.

What buyers and facility teams usually want to know.

What does Ecogate Analytics measure?

Depending on the system configuration, Ecogate can report fan power, calculated savings, system utilization, required air volume, measured velocity, fan pressure, filter pressure, workstation activity, gate status, and connected-device health. Gate-level airflow measurements require the appropriate Smart or Precision Airflow Gate configuration and calibration.

How are electricity savings calculated?

The Power Master VFD reports actual fan power to the greenBOX. The system compares measured power with the configured baseline and accumulates the difference while the VFD is running. Savings from times when Ecogate shuts the fan off completely may not be included in that running-VFD calculation.

How is workstation utilization calculated?

Workstation utilization is sensor-active time divided by dust-collection system runtime. It is intended to represent the time a machine is actively producing dust, fume, or mist—not loading, unloading, programming, or maintenance time. Because periods when the entire system is stopped can be excluded, it can overstate utilization relative to the full shift.

How current is the data?

Current greenBOX systems store data directly on the greenBOX in a time-series database at one-second resolution. Data for the previous 12 months is available for download at five-minute resolution. When cloud services are used, data transmission is encrypted.

Is cloud connectivity required?

No for the built-in DataMining view. Current Adelie greenBOX systems provide on-board browser access to trailing-12-month charts and CSV exports. Cloud connectivity is required for the Ecogate Analytics cloud platform, remote historical access, and related cloud reporting features.

Can one account monitor several systems?

Yes. Ecogate Analytics can present multiple ventilation systems on one page, while greenBOX Max and Master configurations can also manage multiple systems subject to model capacity and engineering design.

Is Analytics included with every Ecogate system?

For Smart Systems, access to the web-based Ecogate Analytics platform is included with current ecoCARE plans. Availability depends on the greenBOX platform, internet connectivity, and an active service plan.

Does Analytics guarantee compliance?

No software dashboard by itself guarantees compliance. Ecogate data can support documentation and reporting by showing airflow, pressure, velocity, and operating history. Final compliance depends on system design, material, configuration, calibration, operation, maintenance, and applicable requirements.
