Sensors that clamp on in minutes

LoRaWAN is a low-power radio technology built for sending small amounts of data over long distances. That makes it well suited to industrial sites, where assets are spread out and running cable to each one is slow and expensive.

TheAngle installs battery-powered LoRaWAN sensors that stream pressure and vibration readings to a gateway and on to one IoT platform with dashboards, alerts and reports. Sub-GHz radio cuts through steel, dust, heat and distance, and the gateway connects onward by cellular, Ethernet, Wi-Fi or satellite.

Scope of delivery

What we deliver

01 //

Site survey

We map your assets, the distances between them and the best gateway placement.

02 //

Install and commission

Sensors clamp on in minutes, with no shutdown, no hot work and no cabling.

03 //

Gateway and network server

Hosted on the gateway at the edge or in the cloud, as you choose.

04 //

IoT platform

Dashboards, real-time alerts, trend history and reports from day one.

05 //

Integration

Open APIs and MQTT feed your SCADA, historians and BI tools.

06 //

Room to grow

Add temperature, level or flow sensors to the same network at any time.

Deployment

What we monitor

Start with pressure and vibration on the assets that matter most, then extend the same network across the site.

  • Wellheads
  • Pipelines
  • Pumps and compressors
  • Water and power infrastructure
Briefing

Questions & answers

Q.01

What is LoRaWAN used for in oil and gas?

LoRaWAN connects battery-powered sensors on wellheads, pipelines, pumps and compressors to a central platform. It gives operators live pressure and vibration data and alerts without cabling each asset.

Q.02

How far can a sensor be from the gateway?

One gateway covers sensors 5 km away and beyond, and can serve hundreds of sensors.

Q.03

How long do the sensor batteries last?

The sensors are designed for more than ten years on one battery, so there are no routine site visits to change them.

Q.04

Is the data secure?

Yes. Data is protected with AES-128 encryption from the sensor to the network server, and the server can be hosted on the gateway or in the cloud.

Q.05

How quickly can a site go live?

A deployment has three steps: a site survey, installation and commissioning, and go-live. Sensors clamp on in minutes, so a site can be running in days.
