Features

What the Smart Box does for you.

Instant fault analysis

The box detects anomalies immediately. Rather than simply reporting an "error", it sends the exact error code along with contextual data. This allows our service team to take precise action.

Digital Twin

All sensor data feeds into a virtual replica of your H2 generator. We simulate its behavior under real-world conditions without disrupting operation.

Predictive Maintenance

No more guesswork. The digital twin calculates the exact remaining life expectancy of the H2 stack. Plan maintenance proactively rather than reactively.

SCHMIDLIN App

Measure. Store. Share.

Instant access to all sensor data via USB. Use the mobile dashboard for quick diagnostics and forward log files directly to support.

  • Bring all of your generator's internal values to your smartphone.
  • Simply connect via USB and get instant access to all sensor data.

Digital Twin

Your H2 generator as a virtual replica.

All sensor data feeds into a virtual replica of your H2 generator – for predictive maintenance based on the actual condition of the components.

Virtual Mirroring

The digital twin acts as an exact virtual replica of the physical hydrogen generator. Real-time synchronization mirrors the current system status in the cloud.

Sensor Integration

The IoT box continuously records critical operating parameters such as cell voltage, temperature, system pressure and flow rates, providing the basis for algorithmic evaluation.

Remaining Useful Life AI Powered

Using complex algorithms, the system analyzes the degree of wear (stack health). The remaining useful life (RUL) is forecast with precision.

Predictive Maintenance

The transition to predictive maintenance: service intervals are no longer based on rigid schedules but on the actual condition of the components.

Anomaly Detection

Continuous comparison of target and actual values in the digital model identifies gradual deviations at an early stage and prevents system failures.

Evolution

Aggregating long-term data provides deeper insights into aging behavior and feeds directly into hardware optimization.

How it works

The SCHMIDLIN Smart Ecosystem.

NM Plus hydrogen generator

The Generator

Highest purity, maximum reliability. It all starts with proven quality. Our generators produce ultra-pure hydrogen exactly where it is needed. Precise electrolysis – designed for continuous operation and demanding analytical instruments.

Smart Box

Automatic fault detection and remote monitoring: The Smart Box is the direct interface to the outside world. It monitors the generator 24/7 and detects anomalies immediately and proactively. This enables targeted, fast maintenance of your instrument.

The Digital Twin

Predictive maintenance powered by artificial intelligence. While the generator is running, we have spent years building a virtual replica of our H2 instruments in our cloud: the digital twin. Intelligent algorithms continuously analyze the operating data. They not only calculate the current condition but also forecast the remaining life expectancy of critical components (e.g. the electrolysis cell).
