Ackumen™ SMART Inventory

Take the guesswork out of chemistry management.

Managing chemical inventory is demanding. You spend a lot of time and energy making visual inspections, reordering products, managing orders, refilling dispensers and more. And if you don’t stay on top of it, you run the risk of running out of chemistry. Placing orders via email isn’t exactly a quick or smooth process either. And when it comes to tracking your order, you have to stop what you’re doing and call customer service. At the end of the day, you and your team struggle to find the time needed to make sure your system is feeding at the right rates, address any potential problems and keep the right amount of inventory in stock.

Managing solid chemistry inventory poses additional challenges. You have to make important decisions based on trends rather than real-time data. That approach doesn’t allow you to detect usage anomalies early on. And you don’t know when the dispenser or dosing system malfunctions until it’s too late, when it’s difficult to troubleshoot and identify the cause.

What if you could:

Know at a glance how much chemistry you have remaining online or on site at any given time

Know when to refill your solid or liquid chemistry and when to reorder based on your usage patterns, inventory on hand, and order lead time

Have products automatically reordered to ensure you have inventory available when you need it

Order chemicals online—and on your phone—and know when your order was shipped and when it will be delivered

Track your solid or liquid chemistry consumption and get chemical consumption predictions for your location or multiple locations to manage your chemical spend more efficiently

Access chemical inventory documents all in one convenient place

Know if your solid dispenser is working properly and identify anomalies related to solid chemistry usage—like product sensing, water spray malfunctions, water reservoir levels, or solid product consumption

Receive alerts about high chemical usage

When you choose solid chemistry, you eliminate the risk of toxic liquid chemical spills and the need to handle hazardous liquid pails and drums in public spaces. And because it’s easy and safe to handle, your employees don’t need hazardous chemical training or special clothing and equipment.

Solid chemistry is also easier and safer to transport than liquids, and it can help reduce your carbon footprint. How? It’s shipped by box via FedEx® and UPS®, not as hazardous cargo. It comes in solid disc form with no wasteful packaging. And because it’s shipped in fully recyclable plastic containers with no storage constraints, you don’t have to worry about storing pails and drums, rinsing them, or disposing of them in landfills. Solid chemistry also has a longer shelf stability than liquid chemistry and helps you avoid pumping and transfer hassles.
