Abdex’s Hose and Asset Management service Stefan Gunter, sales director at Abdex, discusses the company’s Hose and Asset Management service: “Keeping track of highpressure assets is constant and often difficult work. Users and OEMs need to know what they have and where it is. They also need to keep a full track of key dates for inspection, re-tests and replacements. A company’s internal asset register is often not as dynamic as it would like it to be. The Abdex Hose and Asset Management service offers complete peace of mind for all your assets. Components can be barcoded, RFID-tagged or etched to allow full traceability. The software is simple to use and smartphone enabled. The company and Abdex have instant and comprehensive information on all assets, whether they are in store, in the field or even in transit. Abdex can provide asset testing at its site in Milton Keynes or through its mobile service, whereby Abdex’s mobile testing van can visit a customer’s premises or its asset wherever it is located. Full visibility of the testing history of the asset, with all test certificates being available to access in the cloud whenever required. Images of the asset can be taken and added to the register whenever required. This could be, for example, to show why the asset failed or to give advisory information regarding its current state or health etc.”
