APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR REMOTE MONITORING AND DEACTIVATION OF AN ASSET

摘要

An apparatus is disclosed for remotely and controllably deactivating or part ly deactivating a first asset, which first asset may comprise an air dependent power source. The apparatus may comprise a regulator associated with the first asset. The regulator may comprise a valve having first and second positions and the fir st position may allow a first rate of the air supply to the power source and th e second position may allow a second rate of air supply to the power source and the second rate may be less than the first rate. The apparatus may further comprise a controller remote from the regulator for transmitting a control signal to the regulator ; the valve being actuable in response to the control signal to move between the first a nd second positions thereby regulating the air supply to the power source.
