The Platform explained
The ARQ Platform: Hardware-Agnostic and Universally Compatible
The ARQ platform is fully hardware agnostic, enabling seamless integration with a wide variety of industrial assets and sensors—regardless of brand or manufacturer. Any device that supports common communication protocols such as Modbus, CANbus, MQTT, or REST APIs can interface with the system via ARQ's on-site IoT gateways.
These gateways act as intelligent data bridges, gathering real-time information from equipment like vibration sensors, motors, pressure transducers, humidity monitors, and more. Once captured, data is transmitted securely to the ARQ cloud platform, where it is used for advanced analytics, condition monitoring, automated reporting, and real-time alerting.
This open and flexible architecture ensures scalability and adaptability across diverse industrial environments—without vendor lock-in or proprietary limitations—empowering you to build a smart, future-ready monitoring solution.
Custom Dashboards – Tailored Insights at Your Fingertips
At ARQ, we understand that every operation is different, and so are the data insights that matter most. That’s why our cloud platform empowers you to build completely customizable dashboards that suit your unique workflows, assets, and KPIs.
Using intuitive drag-and-drop tools, users can:
Design dashboards with real-time graphs, trend lines, and heat maps
Overlay multiple data types (e.g., temperature + vibration + runtime hours)
Add gauges, status indicators, live maps, and threshold-based visual alerts
Compare data across locations, devices, or time ranges
Create role-specific views (e.g., maintenance team, operations, management)
Whether you need a high-level operational overview or granular diagnostics on a specific asset, ARQ gives you full control over what is displayed, how it’s displayed, and who sees it.
The dashboards are:
Sensor-agnostic – Use any data ingested from compatible or custom hardware
Scalable – One asset or thousands, one site or a multinational view
Accessible – Log in from anywhere via secure cloud access
Flexible – Update, duplicate, and share dashboards instantly
Graphs - High-Resolution Data with Max/Mean/Min Analysis
Every data point ingested into the ARQ platform is stored with its maximum, mean, and minimum values over a 5-minute interval. This level of granularity ensures that no critical fluctuations or anomalies are missed, even when viewing summarized trends. By capturing this detailed statistical spread for each metric—whether it's vibration, temperature, current, or pressure—ARQ enables deep fault analysis, event reconstruction, and early warning detection. These high-resolution time series graphs are especially valuable for identifying intermittent issues and understanding equipment behavior under varying load conditions.
Custom Reports – Actionable Insights from Any Data Source
The ARQ platform enables the creation of fully customizable reports, tailored to the exact data being ingressed into your dashboards. These reports can combine multiple data sources, apply custom logic, and display insights that are both operational and strategic.
For example, you can:
Compare vibration levels from two motors to detect imbalance or unusual mechanical wear
Track temperature or pressure changes alongside humidity to identify patterns in environmental conditions
Measure energy consumption across different machines or production lines to benchmark efficiency
Analyze PV (solar) production vs. expected output, based on irradiance or weather-adjusted models
Compare generator runtime against fuel levels and load profiles to optimize refueling schedules
Correlate power quality metrics (voltage, current, harmonics) with equipment behavior to diagnose electrical issues
Monitor delta values between upstream and downstream sensors (e.g., inlet vs. outlet pressure or temperature)
Review baseline vs. real-time values to trigger maintenance alerts when deviations exceed defined thresholds
Reports can be scheduled, triggered, or exported on demand, and formatted to suit both technical teams and executive stakeholders. With ARQ, your data isn't just logged—it’s transformed into practical, meaningful intelligence that supports better decisions.
Real-Time Alerts and Alarms – Stay Ahead of Failures
With ARQ, every data point becomes an opportunity to act—before downtime, damage, or inefficiency occurs. The platform supports fully customizable real-time alerts and alarms, allowing you to define conditions and thresholds based on live sensor readings across any connected asset.
Users can:
Set upper and lower limits for any monitored value—temperature, vibration, pressure, energy, and more
Create multi-parameter conditions (e.g., temperature > 60°C AND humidity > 80%)
Trigger alarms when deltas or rate-of-change exceed expected norms
Configure notifications to be sent via email, SMS, or platform alerts, routed by severity and recipient role
Use hysteresis, delay, or debounce logic to prevent false positives and alarm fatigue
Whether it's a critical fault in a pump, a temperature spike in a storage area, or a power drop in a solar array, ARQ ensures that the right people are informed immediately, with clear context and actionable data.
These alerts can also feed into local control actions at the edge, such as shutting down equipment, triggering a warning light, or logging an event—even if the cloud connection is temporarily unavailable.
With ARQ’s alerting engine, your operations move from reactive to proactive and predictive, reducing response time and improving overall system resilience.
At ARQ Controls, we specialize in the remote monitoring, measurement, and control of critical assets. From industrial equipment and energy systems to environmental parameters, our solutions deliver real-time insights and actionable control—accessible from anywhere.
Unlike overly complex legacy platforms, ARQ offers a streamlined and intuitive approach, enabling businesses to manage operations with precision, simplicity, and confidence. Whether you're optimizing performance, ensuring uptime, or maintaining compliance, ARQ gives you the tools to take control—without the overhead.
