  • Publication number: 20220412589
    Abstract: An example implementation includes a method of monitoring and controlling an air conditioning unit. An example method includes obtaining, from a sensor disposed in an air conditioning unit, data indicative of one or more of current and vibration associated with a physical component of the air conditioner; analyzing, using one or more of a processor and a circuit, the data; determining, based on the analyzing, that the data indicates that the physical component may fail; and providing, responsive to the determining, an indication of failure.
