1. CRITICAL X2 PRESSURE ESCALATION DETECTED
During routine monitoring of a PC5500-11 excavator report, a continuous rise in X2 pressure was identified. This is a key variable used by the machine’s control system to regulate flow rates and activate safety protocols.
If left unchecked, this increase could have triggered automatic shutdowns or even led to component damage.
2. CAUGHT EARLY
SmartFleetDX’s Monitoring Team identified the trend early on through generated reports and triggered alerts.
Upon noticing the anomaly, the site team was asked to inspect the machine and confirm whether the elevated pressure reading was accurate.
3. RAPID ON-SITE ACTION
In close coordination with the SmartFleetDX team, the site maintenance team carried out a valve adjustment. The control valve responsible for managing system pressure was manually adjusted to restore optimal pressure levels.
4. SYSTEM STABILISATION
The effects of the intervention were visible quickly:
5. END RESULT: DOWNTIME AVOIDED, SYSTEM PROTECTED
This case study demonstrates the importance of combining SmartFleetDX diagnostics with a prompt on-site response.
By identifying the X2 pressure rise promptly and taking action swiftly, the team prevented a potential shutdown or costly repair, demonstrating how SmartFleetDX promotes the continuous and safe operation of machinery.
