The PLYMOVENT ControlPro Connect extends the ControlPro extraction system controller with cloud-based remote monitoring and management. Through the i-Connect gateway module, multiple filter units across a facility connect to a centralized web portal accessible from any PC, tablet, or smartphone — eliminating the need for walk-around inspections and enabling proactive maintenance scheduling.

What can operators monitor and control remotely?

The ControlPro Connect dashboard provides real-time visibility into system operating mode, filter status, cleaning cycles, fan status, and energy consumption. Historical data graphing tracks filter pressure trends, fan running hours, and cleaning frequency over time. Automated email notifications for warnings, alarms, and scheduled maintenance help address issues before they cause unplanned downtime.

How does automated scheduling reduce energy consumption?

Three programmable timer types — week, overtime, and holiday — ensure extraction systems run only when needed. Systems automatically switch to energy-saving standby outside production hours. Zone grouping with custom floor-plan upload allows selective operation: extraction activates only in active production zones while idle areas remain off, cutting overall energy consumption without compromising workplace air quality.

Which extraction systems are compatible?

ControlPro Connect supports PLYMOVENT MDB (MediaFilter-Dust-Bag), SCS (Suction Cleaning System), MDB-Diluter, and SCS-Diluter stationary filter ranges. A single i-Connect module connects up to seven ControlPro-controlled filter systems via RJ45 LAN, expandable to 13 with the i-Connect Extension module. The system is designed for indoor installation (0–50 °C ambient) and ships with CE certification per EU EMC and Low Voltage Directives.
