Products

PerpetIQ

Waste-Heat Powered · On-Device AI Predictive Maintenance

Just clamp it on — it powers itself and diagnoses faults inside the device.

PIQ-TEM4001-LP-H / LP-C

IP65KC · RF certified187.1 g90 × 58 × 38 mm
No Wiring

Zero Cabling Work

Installed with a clamp alone — no power or communication wiring required.

No Battery

Zero Replacements

Thermoelectric (TEG) harvesting from pipe surface heat makes it fully self-powered.

No Data Export

Zero Raw Data Leaving Site

AI runs on the device and only the verdict is transmitted.

PIQ-TEM4001-LP-H

For Hot Steam Pipes

Turns the high surface temperature of steam and hot water lines directly into power.

  • Steam & hot water lines
  • High-temperature thermal interface
  • Elevated and hazardous zones

PIQ-TEM4001-LP-C

For Low-Temperature Pipes

Generates power reliably even from the small temperature gradients of chilled and ambient lines.

  • Chilled water & general lines
  • Low-temperature thermal interface
  • Rotating equipment surfaces

Customizable for Your Site

Sensor channels, connectivity, housing and mounting, and the verdict logic can all be tailored to your requirements — from prototype build through production handoff.

How It Works

From installation to alert in five steps.

1

Capture Waste Heat

The thermal interface picks up the temperature gradient (ΔT) at the pipe surface.

2

TEG Self-Generation

That gradient becomes electricity — the device runs with no battery at all.

3

Sense · AI Verdict

Vibration, temperature, and acoustics are measured and judged on the device.

4

LoRaWAN Uplink

Only the verdict is transmitted wirelessly — never the raw data.

5

Dashboard Monitoring

Track assets live and receive Zone alerts from the web dashboard.
