Telemetry Solutions

Telemetry involves collecting measurements or data at remote locations and automatically transmitting them to receiving equipment for monitoring

NPE’s internal team has developed an advanced and adaptable in-house loT solution system, the most advanced in its category.

Typically, an industrial loT application costs between $400k and $600k but with Losant, the costs are reduced to only paying a service cost. Managing devices that report to these platforms lower the subscription point and maintenance costs. This allows us to evolve to meet changing use cases and business requirements.

Open options for devices to integrate with the system using multiple protocols allow for various system integrations and customizability. The platform allows for dashboards with data plotting ability, integration of data logging and manipulation and reporting features.

DASHBOARD

NPE’s internal team has developed an advanced and adaptable in-house loT solution system, the most advanced in its category. The Dashboard is a versatile and powerful tool used for the visualisation of equipment and monitoring solutions. 

Users can build a custom industrial equipment monitoring solution. Solutions include collection, comparison, reporting and the ability to act on real-time data. The data collected transfers from the device to the cloud using best practices and secure encryption.

Dashboards can be customised to view the solutions you wish to track while presenting the data in gauges, charts and alarm lists to help process the information.

Data from your device is transformed within the platform so a custom workflow can be created for further analysis. Workflows are primarily used for the device to trigger events and notifications.

Custom templated SMS and Email notifications can be utilised to send out triggers and event alerts. With this information, Stakeholders will have an opportunity to stay informed at the time of events occurring, the events include high-level alarming, device inactivity or failure and notifications of standby equipment start-up.

Additionally, the platform can provide batch reporting of historical data, allowing businesses to gain further insight, which can assist in future business decisions.

Monitoring, data analysis & management

Our cloud-based system designed for monitoring, data analysing and management of ComAp and 3rd party devices via the Internet. You can an overview of all your device's status, location and other important data - all on one screen.

The system features fine-grained access controls that offer users additional means of controlling access to the equipment. The Roles and Groups feature can manage the option to grant full access or read-only rights. 

standard-modem

Standalone ComAp with a standard modem (cloud based system only):

Secure access.

Customer access to WebSupervisor can be granted for viewing and in certain circumstances controls.

Allows for basic controls but are limited by speed of information (latency) and availability of the WebSupervisor Service provided by ComAP.

You will not have System Offline notifications.

Ability to start/stop and maintain on suction, discharge, flow, level transducer.

standalone-compap

Standalone ComAp with a standard modem and SBC (dashboard only)

System allows cloud based system access and dashboard capabilities. Basic controls are reliable web based monitoring with be provided.

You will have a dashboard and web-based information logging. Data can be graphed in real time, tracking trends. Assisting with pump optimisation and diagnostics. The ability to poll the system and check whether the device is offline.

We have the ability to set up a VPN tunnel which allows the ability to connect to the network remotely and find fault issues, connect to devices and make changes remotely.

Ability to start/stop and maintain on suction, discharge, flow, level transducer.

TELeMETRY OFFERINGS

We help with functional integration with client systems; which is defined as integrating with existing platforms that clients control. These can include SCADA (Citect, AVEVA, Ignition), PLCs, RTUs, and various communication protocols if required.

This is a technical implementation and requires direct contact with the customer’s technical team to determine feasibly and scope of works.

Possible products of client integrations:

  • Ability to view system/operation data
  • Alarm triggers and notifications
  • Interlock integrations / implementation
  • Availability of controls, like Start/Stop
  • Ramp Up/Down etc
telemetry-leak-detection

Leak detection systems

We’re able to detect flow at 2 points in a pipeline, for vast distances. This is generally done over remote I/O and multiple radio towers. A comparison is done between the 1st flow meter and 2nd flowmeter, with a start timer to fill the pipe.

If there is a discrepancy (setpoint can be adjusted) between the flow meters are detected the system can shut the pump down and notifications can be sent (communication availability dependant).

telemetry-bypass

Sewer Bypass

Process control can be setup to maintain level in a well using a level transducer, generally a hydrostatic generator.

Duty and standby systems can be setup as per standard where the standby starts at a higher level, or the system can interlock the standby pump to only start on viable conditions.

Remote I/O and Telematics

Sometimes the site doesn’t have cellular connectivity. This is where we’re most reliant to getting the customer to provide the outbound connection if possible.

On rare cases we will quote a Satellite option, this is not cost effective, and difficult solution as it requires the supplier to also send a technician out to install. This includes having to organise site access, accommodation, and travel for them.

Integration with the Client’s outbound connection generally requires outbound traffic to be encrypted, this takes prior planning and testing before commissioning on site.
