Electrical control panels, substations, battery storage racks...
For critical industrial equipment, abnormal heat is often the earliest warning sign of a developing problem.
However, many facilities still face common operational challenges:
When faced with these challenges, many organizations first consider installing temperature sensors.
While sensors are effective in many situations, they also have inherent limitations:
Gravio now supports a no-code thermal monitoring solution by integrating the AXIS Q1961-TE Thermal Camera with Gravio.
Together, they enable:
All without custom programming.
Detects overheating in substations, generators, and solar panels before failures occur.
This enables both preventive maintenance and improved operational safety.
Continuously monitor conveyor belts, electrical control panels, and other critical equipment around the clock.
Early detection of abnormal temperature increases helps reduce:
Long-term temperature trends also provide valuable insight for predictive maintenance.
Monitor rechargeable battery recycling facilities to help prevent thermal runaway and fires.
Continuous temperature monitoring enables operators to detect overheating batteries early and maintain safer storage conditions.
Monitor forests, industrial sites, and outdoor facilities for early signs of fire.
Thermal imaging detects abnormal heat sources before flames become visible, enabling faster emergency response.
The AXIS Q1961-TE is a thermal imaging camera capable of measuring object temperatures without physical contact.
Designed for harsh industrial environments, it offers:
Because thermal imaging captures heat instead of detailed visual images, it also provides an additional level of privacy while generating highly accurate thermal information.
Temperature Measurement Accuracy
For object temperatures between 0°C and 120°C, the AXIS Q1961-TE provides an accuracy of ±5°C.
Please refer to the official Axis product documentation for complete specifications and performance details.
When integrated with Gravio, the system automatically collects:
for each configured monitoring area and stores them as historical time-series data.
Operators can immediately identify hotspots while simultaneously building a historical database of temperature trends.
This provides benefits beyond simple visualization:
Temperature thresholds can be configured directly on the AXIS Q1961-TE.
Using Gravio's no-code workflow automation, any threshold violation automatically triggers real-time notifications through messaging applications.
This enables maintenance personnel to respond immediately, regardless of their location.
Thermal imaging presents heat distribution using intuitive color mapping.
By combining the thermal image with Gravio's real-time alerting, operators can quickly determine:
Rather than relying solely on numerical temperature values, maintenance personnel gain immediate visual insight that speeds troubleshooting and root-cause analysis.
Gravio supports standard industrial connectivity, including:
This enables seamless integration with the AXIS Q1961-TE without requiring custom software development.
As a no-code automation platform, Gravio makes it easy to build workflows connecting thermal cameras, BI dashboards, messaging applications, and field devices through an intuitive visual interface.
A typical workflow looks like this:
This entire workflow can be configured without programming.
Even facilities that cannot utilize cloud infrastructure can deploy the solution quickly without major changes to their existing network architecture.
