Innovative Tank Monitoring for a Manufacturing Client: EM500 LoRaWAN Sensors in Action

Go Monitor

When a manufacturing client needed a reliable and efficient solution to monitor 10 large tanks containing lubricants, fuels, and oils, we delivered a cutting-edge IoT system designed to simplify operations and optimise energy management.


The Challenge: Accurate Monitoring Without the Hassle


The client required precise level monitoring across multiple tanks but wanted to avoid the time, expense, and disruption associated with running cables. Additionally, the system had to perform reliably in a challenging environment where condensation could interfere with traditional sensors.


Our Solution: EM500 LoRaWAN Level Sensors


We deployed EM500 LoRaWAN level sensors, a battery-powered, wireless solution designed for industrial applications. These sensors offer several key advantages:

  • High Accuracy: Delivers precise measurements for a wide range of liquids, including lubricants, fuels, and oils.

  • Resilience to Condensation: Ensures reliable readings, even in environments prone to moisture.

  • Wireless and Battery-Powered: Eliminates the need for extensive cabling, reducing installation time and costs.




Efficient Data Collection with One Gateway


A single LoRaWAN gateway on-site collects all tank level data, transmitting it seamlessly to a centralised system. This streamlined setup allows the client to monitor all 10 tanks in real-time without the complexity of managing multiple gateways or wired connections.





The Benefits for Our Client


  • Cost-Effective Installation: No cabling required, significantly reducing installation costs and downtime.

  • Real-Time Monitoring: Accurate, up-to-date data enables better decision-making and inventory management.

  • Scalable and Reliable: LoRaWAN’s long-range, low-power capabilities make it perfect for large industrial sites.


Transforming Tank Monitoring with IoT Technology


This project demonstrates how IoT solutions like the EM500 LoRaWAN sensors can revolutionise industrial operations. By combining wireless technology with advanced sensor capabilities, we delivered a robust, low-maintenance system that simplifies tank monitoring and enhances operational efficiency.
