TEMPERATURE APPLICATIONS

Sensfox sensor

Sensor Type

TM-02 Temperature Monitoring with remote access and temperature alarms.

CM-02 Controller Monitoring with remote access to critical parameters and alarms.

SM-02 System Monitoring for advanced machine supervision.

Data are available online

USE CASES

Monitoring of Cooling Systems

Monitoring and temperature recording for cooling and freezing systems with online access to the data. Period of monitoring/recording is configurable as well as high and low temperture limits (alert can be sent via SMS/em@il).

High temperature alert

Standalone temperature alert in case of overheating in the server rooms. Also possibility of alert on low temperature.

Temperature monitoring in farms

Temperature monitoring and recording in greenhouses, silos, weather stations.

APPLICATIONS WITH ON/OFF STATE MONITORING

Sensfox sensor

Sensor Type

DI-02 ON/OFF Switching Input checks continuously state of the digital input.

Data are accessible online

USE CASES

Street Light Monitoring

Monitoring of street light functionality.

Power Shutdown Alert

Alert is sent in case of power shutdown.

Easy-to-Install Alarm

Can be connected as a door/window alarm.

Level Measurement, Distance Measurement

Sensfox sensor

Sensor Type

LIQ-01 monitors level of liquids/bulk solids or a distance between objects using an ultrasonic sensor.

DI-02 checks continuously state of the floater. If the floater reaches its threshold, alarm state will be activated.

Data are available online

Examples of Application

Water level monitoring

Monitoring of the water level in rivers, lakes, dams. Alert can be generated when the level is out of limits.

Silo level monitoring

Monitoring of level of bulk solids in silos.

Tank Level Monitoring

Liquid level monitoring (for non-explosive environment only).

Applications with Vibration Detection

Sensfox sensor

Sensor Type

VIB-02 is an easy-to-install and easy-to-use alarm that activates with a severe vibration in any of the 3 axis (x, y, z). Its activation is immediately notified to our server and to user via em@il/SMS.

Data are available online

Examples of Application

Easy-to-Install Alarm

Alarm that is activated on a severe vibration when door opens ....

Vibration Alarm

Severe vibration guard for constructions, machinery ...

Alarm for machinery

Easy-to-install alarm for any type of machinery used in agriculture, constructions. Alarm can be extended by a GPS module.

Web Server Interface

Measured data are immediately sent over the Sigfox network to our server for processing.

All data are stored on a secured server. Data are accessible after login with your credentials.

Data can be accessed anytime on the server. Data are accessible in a table or graph and can be exported for further processing (e.g. in Excel). Web interface enables us to set high and low temperature limits. When temperature is out of range, a message is sent via SMS/em@il. Current temperature can also be visualized on a smartphone using a widget.
