Robust telemetry hardware designed for New Zealand's irrigation and water management applications, connecting your flow meters to our cloud-based water management platform via 5G cellular or NBIoT.
Getting data from a flow meter in a remote Canterbury irrigation location isn't straightforward. Cellular coverage can be patchy, power isn't always available, and the hardware needs to keep running through whatever the Canterbury climate delivers. Our industrial data loggers are specified and configured for exactly these conditions.
Every logger we supply connects to our cloud-based water management platform, giving you real-time flow data, health monitoring, and compliance reporting from anywhere. We handle the hardware supply, configuration, installation, and ongoing support.
Our loggers use 5G cellular as the primary connection, with NBIoT as automatic backup. You don't need to manage connectivity, the logger handles it automatically.
New Zealand telcos are getting close to offering satellite data on their networks, but at the time of writing, text messaging is the only modality available via satellite. Watch this space, as satellite data connectivity is likely to become a practical option for remote sites in the near future.
Where mains power isn't available, which covers most remote irrigation take points, our loggers run on a standalone solar power system. The solar system is sized for reliable year-round operation in Canterbury's climate, and solar power health is monitored remotely via our cloud-based water management platform so we're alerted if power levels drop.
Our loggers integrate with flow meters from all major manufacturers including Siemens, Endress+Hauser, Krohne, and ABB, as well as mechanical meters with pulse outputs. If you have existing meters already installed, we can connect them to our cloud platform without replacement.
Every logger we supply connects to our cloud-based water management platform, giving you real-time dashboards, compliance reporting, anomaly alerts, and 24/7 engineering helpdesk support.
If you want a complete, ready-to-install metering system, logger, flow meter, solar power, and enclosure all in one, The Cabinet is our pre-built solution for irrigation take points.
Learn about The Cabinet →From single irrigation bores to multi-point municipal networks, our loggers are configured for the application.
Single or multi-point irrigation take monitoring with solar power and NBIoT backup. Meets ECan data collection requirements. Verification schedules tracked via our cloud-based water management platform.
District metering area monitoring, bulk supply metering, and pump station telemetry for council water networks. Integration with existing SCADA systems available.
Trade waste discharge monitoring, process water measurement, and effluent flow logging for industrial consent holders. Annual verification schedules managed via our cloud-based water management platform.
In most cases, yes. Our loggers integrate with flow meters from all major manufacturers, including those with pulse outputs from mechanical meters. We'll assess your existing installation and confirm compatibility before quoting.
Our solar systems are sized with enough battery reserve to keep operating through several consecutive overcast days, which is common in Canterbury winters. Solar power health is monitored remotely, and we're alerted automatically if levels drop, so we can act before a logger loses power.
NBIoT is designed specifically for low-power, long-range connectivity and generally reaches further into rural and hill country than standard cellular coverage. Our loggers use 5G as the primary connection and fall back to NBIoT automatically, so coverage gaps in one network don't mean a loss of data.
The logger continues to record data locally even if it can't transmit. Once connectivity is restored, the stored data uploads automatically, so you don't lose readings during a temporary outage. Our cloud-based water management platform also flags connectivity gaps so we can follow up if a logger stays offline for an extended period.
We handle the full process, supply, configuration, installation, and ongoing support. Every logger is set up to suit your specific meter, site, and connectivity requirements before it goes in the ground.
