Legend Power Systems Finalizing Enhanced SmartGATE Platform Designed to Transform the Electrical Room

Nov 14, 2019

Legend Power Systems is taking the next step in analyzing and improving building power quality with its next version of the company’s patented SmartGATE technology. Legend is finalizing the release of a significant enhancement to its leading SmartGATE system. The updated product is scheduled for release in stages beginning Nov 15, 2019.

Designed as an enterprise solution, the SmartGATE platform addresses the additional major building challenges caused by poor power quality. The enhanced SmartGATE platform will transform commercial building power management by providing a single platform that analyzes the voltage coming into a building, then identifies and corrects or mitigates common building power quality challenges.

While building engineering and operations personnel have long been aware of the risks and waste of poor power quality entering unprotected buildings, available solutions were either too large to fit in a commercial building electrical room or too costly. Legend’s technology has a compact footprint that fits in the electrical room, and at a lower cost than industrial systems. In addition, SmartGATE saves energy while fixing the most important elements of power quality.
