Know when to drink.
Connected Hydration measures sweat loss, sodium loss, skin temperature and motion through a reusable electronic module worn in a washable armband or a single-use patch. Vibration alerts tell workers when to rehydrate even without a phone, while the mobile app gives personalised fluid and electrolyte recommendations. Safety teams see anonymised, population-level trends in a cloud dashboard to adjust work-rest schedules and heat-stress controls. The module is certified for Class I, Division 2 hazardous locations.
Key specifications
Why the Connected Hydration
Sweat, measured
The module estimates whole-body sweat loss and sweat sodium loss alongside skin temperature and motion through the shift.
Alerts without a phone
Vibration alerts trigger when fluid deficits reach actionable levels, so workers are warned even in low-connectivity areas.
Personal recommendations
The app turns each worker's data into fluid and electrolyte recommendations and recovery guidance, building more consistent hydration habits.
Privacy by design
Individual data is visible only to the worker; safety teams receive anonymised, aggregated group insights for heat-stress planning.

The electronic module is certified for Class I, Division 2 and Zone 2 locations to UL and CSA 60079 standards.
