Hardware Explained
The GreaseBoss system consists of hardware and software to verify the greasing activity of manual and automatic systems.
The manual system hardware is the physical grease point RFID tag along with the GreaseBoss head unit fitted to your portable manual grease gun. The head unit contains a smart coupler to detect the grease tags and an internal flowmeter to capture volumes along with communications hardware to allow information to be synchronised to the GreaseBoss Cloud for analysis and reporting.
The endpoint devices are designed to be permanently mounted to monitor automatic lubricators in a similar manner.
