The Aircom end nodes connect to wired field sensors using LoRaWAN technology to share data in near real-time back to a gateway, which is then transmitted to the server. The end nodes are robust and intrinsically safe (Class 1 Div 1, Zone 0 certified) so can be installed in explosive environments as standard. They work with almost every kind of instrument to monitor analog, digital and serial communications inputs for things like:
- Flow and volume
- Temperature and pressure
- Events and digital alarms
- Oxygen - Environmental
- Gas quality
- Cathodic protection
- Electrical metering
The powerful battery has a life of up to 10 years, meaning the unit can be installed in remote locations to provide data that may have been cost prohibitive or difficult to get previously.
The Aircom gateway can connect with up to hundreds of end nodes, enabling a robust and cost-effective solution for data transmission. The gateway has 4G or ethernet connection options to get the data back to the server or end destination like SCADA, DCS etc. With our proprietary topographical software tool, we can determine the optimal placement of gateways depending on the unique geography of the deployment area.
The Aircom LoRaWAN server, handles the security and processing of the incoming data packet to ensure data integrity and control each step of the way allowing you to ‘see’ data you may never have had access to. The server can run locally on the gateway or in the cloud depending on your needs. Data can be transmitted by 4G or Ethernet to the cloud server and then brought into SCADA or DCS via MQTT, or via Modbus TCP or RTU when the server is running locally, depending on your specific setup and requirements.
