Antares were tasked by our client, Pick Up Systems, to automate an existing external pump control panel onboard a fire truck.

We used the ES-Key CANbus control system to provide both external & internal control & monitoring of the pumping system. The existing panel included various gauges, switches and buttons which we were able to replicate within the UltraView system. We worked closely with the clients on the layout & design to give a user friendly interface.

The main advantages of the UltraView control system is that it reduces weight, saves space, and allows for remote control via multiple nodes. it is capable of providing improved user feedback e.g. warning indications for low pressure levels etc, and it enables the addition of extra functionality without the need for additional hardware.
