Ranch Systems provides real-time, on-line tank monitoring, and is optimized for use in remote locations and tough environmental conditions.

Cost-effective options are available for both single tanks and multiple tank configurations.

The software is designed for ease-of-use and allows tracking of tank level using just a web browser from anywhere in the world. Furthermore, alert triggers can be configured to make automatic phone calls or send text messages to key personel when certain critical conditions arise.

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
  • Water tank monitoring
  • Fertilizer tank monitoring
  • Pond water level monitoring
  • Sulphuric acid tank monitoring
  • Well level monitoring
BENEFITS
  • Reduce risk and cost of outages
  • Improve planning of delivery truck schedules
  • Prevent overfills/flows
  • Track water usage

A typical starter system consists of the following components:

  • A level sensor (either a drop-in submersible, or ultra-sonic top-mount)
  • RM210 cellular base station for reporting to the Internet
  • Solar panel for power

If more tanks are within 1-2 miles, the extra tanks can be monitored without adding an extra base station - only the less expensive RS210 node will be required, lowering the cost of online monitoring of multiple tank installations.

A number of additional options are available to further enhance the solution:

  • An alarm horn providing immediate audible feedback on critical conditions (e.g. overfill)
  • A camera for still image capture (e.g. fill/draw outside regular business hours)
  • Remote valve or pump control (e.g. automatic shutoff or refill control)

 

SOFTWARE SUPPORT

Our on-line web software provides the following:

  • Immediate current status of level and gallons currently in each tank monitored
  • 1-click time graphs showing level or gallons over time
  • Ability to define alerts that calls your phone or sends text messages when level falls outside your criterias
  • Historical reports in PDF format
