EZee Tag - The smarter solution to valve tagging and tracking
Information at your finger tips
The ability to accurately track valves and associated equipment throughout its life cycle from initial supply and installation through maintenance phases to ultimate replacement is a key requirement for engineers seeking to optimise the use of their limited maintenance resources.
EZee tag, a unique system from Transmark Fcx, takes the collection, storage and use of data to a new level and incorporates the proven technology of RFID (Radio Frequency Identification Data) and combines it with WiFi®, GPS (Global Positioning System) and handheld devices to deliver a powerful yet flexible and cost effective solution.
Key benefits of the EZee tag system include:
- Unique identification
- Electronic ‘key’ to access individual valve / plant information
- Electronic ‘DNA’ for valves & associated equipment
- Proves that equipment has been visited (scan of tag)
- Improves quality of data held by the valve management system
- Instant visibility of valve availability & location on site
- Quickly find valves (using GPS technology)
- Potential to reduce plant shutdown window
- Easier replacement valve procurement process
EZee Tag uses a robust hand-held device that can be operated in the field to capture/record information at the workface. The handset, which is also able to take inputs from other devices (such as leak detection equipment) to avoid manual intervention, is then synchronised automatically with the master database keeping records fully updated. EZee Tag can interface with existing databases or alternatively operate through a web based hosted system.
Fully integrated
By integrating valve tracking techniques developed through the distribution chain, with systems currently used by end-users and combining them with the latest technology, the EZee tag system provides numerous opportunities for plant operators to streamline their maintenance operations and enhance their effectiveness.
EZee tag also indexes the information which is necessary to ensure compliance with the need for better document tracking as laid down in Pressure Equipment Regulations (PER) and the ATEX directive.
The EZee tag system is available now for on-site demonstrations; please contact your local Transmark Fcx Regional Sales Manager for more information or to arrange a demo or alternatively please call the head office location shown on the back page.
