Oil & Gas

SignalFire Telemetry products connect you with crucial product and hardware data at any of your oil and gas operation sites—whether it’s a pump, pipeline, or storage tank.

Water & Wastewater

SignalFire Telemetry devices install anywhere water asset monitoring is needed, whether it’s for collection purposes, treatment, or delivery.

General Industrial

SignalFire Telemetry devices can monitor key assets and can do it affordably, without any renovation or high-priced engineering costs. They install easily with no required cable or additional power. The data is available on your phone or computer and the cloud service can even output to your corporate system to integrate with the rest of your data and keep your operation running.

Agriculture

SignalFire Telemetry devices can monitor and manage water supplies and additives throughout the property, helping you avoid catastrophic shortages and keep your irrigation plan on track.

Tanks & Terminals

Avoid costly product loss in bulk storage tanks, terminals, and transportation movements. Whether calling for tank levels, gauge pressure, or even movement pumps or pipelines, SignalFire products can fill any monitoring gap throughout a facility.

Environmental

Environmental fines for businesses are frustrating and can bring business to a standstill until they’re worked out. No business wants to hurt the environment, and in competitive markets stopping production affects the bottom line and staff. But there are effective and affordable solutions with SignalFire Telemetry devices.

Refining & Petrochemical

Expand visibility and control of your refinery or petrochemical processing facility without expensive renovations or redesigns. And do it with your current gauges and hardware. SignalFire telemetry devices are designed to work in harsh chemical environments and meet the strictest safety and security standards

Utilities

No matter the size of your service map, monitoring remote assets ensures efficiency and keeps your operation in compliance. That’s how SignalFire devices can really help, offering the most affordable and effective monitoring solution that will monitor liquid, gas, electricity, and other assets.

Pizza Production Plant Automates Inventory Management of Flour Storage Silos

 

A regional pizza commissary operated without instrumentation to manage flour inventory in storage silos at its production plant.

Instead, the plant relied on its vendor to decide when to make flour deliveries to support their weekly output of over 50,000 crusts. As a result, the pizza commissary had no control over inventory and risked running out of flour that would halt production.

Product Supplied

  • VEGAPULS69 Radar Sensor
  • SignalFire Remote Sensing System including a Sentinel HART node and Gateway

Previously, operators at the pizza production plant would only know flour levels were low when the vibrator on the silo began to make a loud, banging noise.

With no measurement instrumentation, the plant relied on the flour vendor in delivering required amounts each week. As a result, the pizza plant risked inefficient production schedules and inaccuracies in product delivery quantities, which can be costly.

A SignalFire Remote Sensing System integrated with VEGAPULS69 level sensors were installed atop the silos to provide continuous measurement of flour levels in the storage silos.

Data on flour levels is now wirelessly transmitted to the plant network, where it is accessible by personal computers and other devices. In this particular configuration, a SignalFire Gateway Stick was specified with an Ethernet interface module that enables accessibility to data via the local Intranet. Pizza plant operators can access data on flour levels through the convenience of their laptops and even smartphones using a specific IP address.

Offering superior signal focusing and relatively fast warm-up times, the VEGAPULS69 level sensors ensure reliable level measurement while operating in explosive and dusty environments. A HART data interface minimizes power usage, which is important when paired with a wireless SignalFire HART Sentinel node that extracts and then transmits level data via a wireless radio transmission to a network gateway.

The Sentinel not only powers the instrument, but manages its power to greatly extend battery life. With 30-minute check-in intervals, battery life is estimated to exceed 5 years, without running expensive EX conduit.

By automating the flour level monitoring process, the SignalFire Remote Sensing System integrated with VEGAPULS69 Radar Sensor increased efficiency and safety at the pizza production plant while providing a more convenient interface to data.
