Data loggers
AIRVALVE Flow Control GmbH

www.prozesswächter.de
AIRVALVE is a reliable partner for water supply, wastewater disposal and industry. We protect plants and ensure their efficient operation. Since 2013, we have been distributing SOFREL data loggers from LACROIX as “Prozesswächter” in Germany. These battery-powered M2M data loggers are characterized by unique reliability and universal application possibilities. In addition, they are floodable (IP68, 2m) and send data for years from the most remote locations, far from any power supply or cable connection.
Process monitors also communicate bidirectionally with telecontrol gateways from SAE. While communication between process monitors and gateways takes place in the cellular network, SAE’s FW-5-GATE-4G, for example, provides a secure hardware connection to control centers in the IEC 104 standard. Doesn’t all this sound tempting? We would be happy to present you with individual concepts for monitoring remote locations.
