Edwards ConnectedSafety+ provides remote predictive maintenance insights which allow partners to proactively take preventative action to help ensure optimized system functionality. These benefits are designed to result in lower system service and maintenance costs and help minimize system disruptions for end users.
Before the introduction of this technology, troubleshooting system issues typically required manual, on-site maintenance visits to resolve and were supported by paper-based workflows.

Now, with Edwards ConnectedSafety+, technicians can utilize the technology and system data remotely to help diagnose system needs. This diagnostics-led approach gives the opportunity to help predict, prepare for, and address system needs resulting in more efficient service calls. Edwards ConnectedSafety+ allows technicians to ‘know before they go’ to troubleshoot on-site.
