Wunderlich-Malec Engineering, Inc. is one of the best Engineering solution services industry in the United States. It was established in the year 1981, with a mission to provide customers with value engineering, quality system integration, and innovative panel and control house solutions. They have over 400 professionals and staff who work seamlessly throughout the year in their extensive research lab facilities across the North American continent. One of the research campus facilities of Wunderlich-Malec is present in Portland, US. The area is prone to constant forest fires, which the Wunderlich research facility is vulnerable to.

In order to get prior information on a forest fire happening nearby in Portland, having an air quality monitoring system was necessary. However, they did not have any air quality monitoring system that detected CO, CO2, PM2.5, and PM10, along with temperature and humidity. Additionally, monitoring the data on a consistent basis and accessing the information in a remote location were required to conduct their research. To achieve this, it was essential that the data received by such air quality monitor be capable of functioning with network connectivity options like MODBUS, Ethernet, Wifi, or GSM.

Oizom with Lam Research offered Polludrone Lite to the Wunderlich-Malec for monitoring air quality and detecting forest fires in its Portland facility. Polludrone Lite is capable of accurately monitoring PM2.5, PM10, CO, CO2, Noise, UV, light, temperature, and humidity on a real-time basis. Polludrone is also capable of transferring the data to the user’s display device through MODBUS integration. It can also survive intense heat and severe weather conditions, thanks to its robust body composition. Additionally, it is also Solar compatible and has a Battery Pack that can store energy so that the device functions despite a possible outage of electricity during a fire.

Wunderlich-Malec Portland unit is now capable of detecting forest fires by monitoring air quality. Polludrone has enabled Wunderlich to monitor various air quality parameters on a real-time basis. Polludrone’s capability of transferring data through MODBUS has made it convenient to conduct research in Wunderlich. Additionally, the authorities can be empowered to take precautionary measures for the safety of their workers during forest fires.
