Güntner announced a new product offering that the company said “leverages a versatile, data-driven strategy to optimize energy efficiency, enhance system reliability and provide analysis and monitoring.”

The new product range of data-driven controllers and solutions, called aicore (pronounced “i-core”), includes the current next-generation controllers called aicore air (previously GMMnext), and aicore hydro (previously GHM).

The company said it is also introducing its latest in cooling technology controls, aicore fusion, which merges the already existing aicore air & hydro hydroBLU control systems while expanding capability even further as a single controls solution for complete adiabatic operation.

“We are transitioning between independent, robust, functional controllers, to a whole integrated system of controllers, that communicate between each other, that are upgradeable and that even provide data analysis, monitoring services. With automatic maintenance on Güntner’s roadmap,” the company said in a statement.

Güntner Brand Strategy Manager, Erika Carvajal said of the future of artificial intelligence and IoT, “The new aicore range builds on and uses these new technologies. Through continuous data collection and analytics, as well as the future of artificial intelligence and machine learning, aicore optimizes resource consumption, reduces maintenance effort and minimizes operating costs.

“With the growing challenges related to lack of qualified skilled workers, aicore provides a future-proof solution to address these needs that we continue to face each day. These opportunities will be key for our customers, contractors and end-users’ overall business success,” she said.
