Satrofit was created 10 years ago as a retrofit solution for rapidly upgrading Satchwell Bas & Sigma systems that had been obsoleted; it is now an instrumentation system in it’s own right.
Satrofit is a retrofit solution for:
As well as easing the burden of obsolescence, Satrofit creates an instrumentation system with open protocols that allows the easy adoption of any BMS platform. An open source design and open protocols means that anyone can support it with spares. Across the UK’s public sector alone, this approach would save an incredible £10 billion over 40 years. This approach means that your BMS will never be obsolete !

Why Satrofit?
Rapid upgrades
Our retrofit solutions are designed for quick, seamless installation, allowing you to upgrade your system without downtime or complex processes.
lower maintenance
Quickly diagnose and resolve issues with ease using the Satrofit Tool, which provides real-time access to system data, enabling technicians to troubleshoot and service systems without needing access to the master controller.
compact Design
Back to the rack!
A rack rack mounted IO system is very flexible and allows very raid replacement of failed equipment. It is also very compact, reducing panel size and cost dramatically, a significant issue where space in modern plantrooms is often very tight.
software conversion
Software conversion to Tridium. We can easily convert old Satchwell BAS & Sigma software to software frameworks such as Niagara and Sedona, saving further time and money.
ai ready
The use of a simple robust and open protocol, Modbus, means that Satrofit can easily be integrated into any current BMS and more importantly, is ready to harness the power of AI in the years ahead.
Retrofit – the Class 57 Analogy
The photo would appear to be of a modern railway locomotive, regularly used to haul express passenger train, actually the Cornish Riviera sleeper train to Penzance from London’s Paddington station.
The locomotive in question through was actually built in the early 1960s, one of the ubiquitous Class 47s, and would have been hauling express trains on Britain’s railways while steam locomotives where still a common sight.
What has allowed this iconic locomotive to stay in front line revenue earning service for many years yet? Put simply, a retrofit solution.
The original Sulzer diesel, a large 16 cylinder medium speed 4 stroke diesel, very much of 1960s technology, was removed and replaced with a modern North American built 2 stroke V12 engine coupled to a robust and reliable alternator rather than the original DC generator and the auxiliary systems renewed.
The result, a modern, efficient and powerful locomotive capable of a wide variety of duties for a third of the cost of a new locomotive.
Retrofit IO systems share the same philosophy, pre-existing and robust panel systems and their field wiring are analogous to the body shell and running gear of the original Class 47, which with care, has an almost indefinite life, and can be quickly and easily up graded to a modern and powerful BMS using a retrofit solution, speeding the process and reducing the cost in line with what an organisation can afford.
So just as rail operators have been able to improve performance and reliability and reduce their operating costs, building operators can equip themselves with a modern and reliable BMS for substantially less than they would have been expecting to pay via the old fashioned route of a complete strip-out and starting again.
