- iHost | Nortech
iHost TM A single platform enabling customers to manage the increasing numbers of small, low cost, communicating “smart field devices” iHost ™ Platform Visualisation of alarms and status, archiving of data, reporting and trending all available on one flexible platform. As well as supporting Nortech’s own RTUs, iHost offers the ideal off-the-shelf “head end system” for large populations of communicating field devices from multiple vendors. iHost is a scalable platform ready to accept data from any communicating device and then combine and share that data with other users and systems. Key Features Collects, processes and stores data from remote field devices Dashboard analytics and visualisation toolset Protocol conversion and data concentrator Population, configuration and firmware management IEC 62351 security, TLS tunneling and device certificate management Provides several industry standard protocols including; DNP3, IEC 60870-5, ICCP, Modbus, IEC 61850, MQTT and Kafka Support for many proprietary third party protocols Capable of simultaneous communications with several thousands of field devices Integration with SCADA Network Management System Unified Power Quality analysis and reporting platform iHost ™ Historian At the heart of the platform is the iHost database. Our integrated datastore has evolved to meet the changing needs of iHost users and the manufacturers of field devices which generate the data we look after. It has been designed to store many billions of values using a highly optimised and compressed time-series storage format . Providing access to the data is a separate challenge and something we invest a lot of software developer time and effort getting right. iHost includes a suite of dashboard analytics and visualisation tools to transform the time-series data into useful information. Deployment options Cloud hosted On-premises - with high availability options Ruggedised hardware local monitoring and control It's your data We have always been committed to making access to data as simple and open as possible (albeit behind firewalls on a secure network). Whilst we aim for iHost to provide users everything they need to interact with data collected from field devices we realise there may be times when this isn’t the only approach. So if you want to build your own reports, design something special for use on smart phones or tablets or even build an entire analytics application you are free to do so.

Life at Nortech Our company culture values the individual, placing great emphasis on working as multi-discipline teams to deliver innovative products and systems. Get in Touch Modern high-tech offices Our main office is in Evesham, Worcestershire. Design, development, production and administration staff are based here. We also have a satellite office in the Jewellery Quarter, Birmingham, for those who prefer the excitement offered by city life. Responsible, Fair, Inclusive Nortech’s ambition is bold – we aim to be regarded as a leading provider of technology enabling the transition to a low carbon power system. How we achieve this is just as important. We respect difference, value diversity and aim to provide equal opportunities for all employees. Team Working To celebrate Horstmann’s 70th anniversary we joined in with 2 days of team building, problem solving and as it happened quite a lot of German sausage, cabbage and beer. The activity day was hosted at a Landrover experience site in Germany. Pictured is Keith, Nortech’s Product Engineer, leading an international rescue team “problem solving” their way across a ravine. Mental Health Our charity of choice this year is MIND. We combined our customer questionnaire with an invite for comments about Nortech in return for charity donations. We were delighted to get a 40% response from our survey and in turn helped MIND continue supporting those experiencing mental health issues Community It’s not all about work, it’s not all about us, it’s right to give something back and support others. Photographed is the local Under 10’s football team wearing kit donated by Nortech which displays the logo of the Midlands Air Ambulance - benefitting two local good causes.

Our Products Innovative monitoring and control technologies for electricity network and system operators RTUs and Smart Sensors The increase in embedded generation, changes in load patterns and adoption of electric vehicles are just some of the reasons that power flows, voltage profiles and constraints on the distribution network are becoming more complex and no longer match traditional models used by network planners and design teams. Taking action to keep the grid stable requires that operators have visibility of what is happening out on the network. Nortech technology components provide network and system operators the ability to see deep into the network beyond the reach of traditional SCADA systems. Products ENVOY Powerful Communications Hub The ENVOY™ platform provides the asset owners and operators with a powerful, flexible, data processing and communications hub. Connected equipment is polled for data, data is transformed and stored as called for by the application and then forwarded to central systems for use.
