Spotlight
Cloud-based monitoring system to gain continuous performance insights to improve asset reliability and optimize performance across your assets
Windrock Spotlight™ cloud-based monitoring system deliver condition monitoring for reciprocating engines and compressors, enabling earlier fault detection and more proactive maintenance planning.
By providing consistent, periodic insights, Spotlight sensors help you shift from reactive maintenance to a proactive, predictive approach — reducing unplanned downtime, optimizing performance, and improving asset reliability.
With flexible data streaming option, including Windrock’s advanced machinery diagnostics software, local computer, onsite server or your company’s secure cloud platform — you can align monitoring and analysis with your operational, IT, and data governance requirements while scaling insights from single assets to entire fleets.
Monitor critical assets across operations
Windrock solutions serve midstream and downstream operations across a broad range of rotating and reciprocating equipment, including:
- Reciprocating compressors: engine-driven, motor-driven, slow-speed integral, high-speed separable, screw
- Rotating equipment: centrifugal compressors, turbines, motors, pumps, fans, gearboxes
From reactive maintenance to proactive reliability
- Earlier issue detection — Identify changes in vibration, pressure, and performance early–before they impact reliability or uptime.
- Improved maintenance planning — Use continuous monitoring insights to schedule maintenance proactively and reduce reactive work.
- Reduced fuel consumption — Optimize equipment performance and balance operating conditions to improve efficiency.
- Leak detection and loss reduction — Detect leaks and performance degradation that can lead to product loss or inefficiencies.
- Reduced equipment degradation — limit wear-and-tear to extend asset life and maintain consistent operations.
- Reduced total cost: Optimize infrastructure with scalable architecture
- Secure data management: Maintain control locally or leverage enterprise-grade cloud security
- Fleet-wide visibility: Expand from single asset monitoring to full operational oversight

How do I choose between on-premise and cloud?
On-premise is ideal for data-sensitive environments, while cloud monitoring supports fleet-wide visibility and scalability. Hybrid models provide flexibility between both.
Can the system scale as operations grow?
Yes. The architecture supports expansion from single assets to multi-site operations.
Is cloud connectivity required?
No. The system can operate fully on-premise or with optional cloud connectivity.
