Digital product documentation at HygroMatik
Why QR codes are replacing traditional operating manuals?

From 1 July 2026, HygroMatik is taking a consistent step towards digital transformation and improved user experience. Instead of a comprehensive printed operating manual, customers will in future receive a compact quick-reference guide – complemented by a QR code providing full access to all product documentation.

The new standard: compact + digitally accessible

    • Quick-reference guide 
      All essential information for installation, commissioning and safe operation
    • QR code access to the complete documentation 

      → in the quick-reference guide

      → on the packaging

      → in and underneath the unit

This combination creates a clear structure.
A quick on-site overview – with full depth available digitally at any time.

The challenge of traditional operating manuals

In practice, extensive paper documentation is often:

 

    • disposed of before installation
    • no longer available after commissioning
    • difficult to retrieve in service situations

 

The result: Loss of time, uncertainty and unnecessary operational effort.

This is exactly where the new concept comes in.

The benefits of QR code-based documentation

1. Access at any time – regardless of the user

Whether installer, operator, service technician or facility manager:
All stakeholders have access to the complete documentation at any time
without physical documents.

 

2. Always up to date

Unlike printed manuals:

    • updates and amendments are available immediately
    • no outdated versions remain in circulation

→ ensuring planning reliability and technical accuracy

 

3. Guaranteed availability for 10 years

HygroMatik ensures that all documents remain digitally accessible for at least 10 yearsa clear advantage for operators with long system lifecycles

 

4. Efficiency in service and operation

Thanks to instant digital access

    • service times are reduced
    • follow-up queries are minimised
    • operational safety is enhanced

 

5. Sustainability and resource efficiency

Eliminating hundreds of pages per unit leads to

    • reduced material consumption
    • more efficient logistics processes

making a valuable contribution to sustainability in plant engineering
