Boztek Solutions Pty Ltd CellVisor Next G Packet-based & SMS Remote Monitoring and Control System.
Case Study - Oil-flow MonitoringAgricultural Group • Agricultural property located 70 km out of Griffith • Monitoring bore pump failure/supervision. • Previous cost = 1 man + 1 truck, 4 hours/day, every day. • Cost of one bearing failure > $30,000 • 235,000 Acres (~1000 km2 ). • 11 irrigation bore pumps. • Primary need: Pump bearing “oil-drip” fail detection
- Low-flow Monitoring (cont’d) Optical Solution (E State design) • Optical-fibre switch - non-invasive. • Count “drops”; Logged as “mL” total per day. • SMS Alarm sent on flow failure. • Auto-shutdown after delay, or immediate SMS shutdown.
Case Study – Soil Moisture MonitoringAquaSpy Group • Approx 600 client sites around Australia and the Americas. • Sites are all solar-powered. • Originally CDMA; converted to Next G. • Interface to AquaSpy soil-moisture probe. • Data is logged and transferred as packet data once every 15 minutes to AquaSpy server.
Case Study – Weather Station(for NSW RTA) • Weather Monitoring at major road-works sites around NSW. • Direct interface to Davis Weather Station. • Packet-data transfer to Web-based application. • SMS alarming on specific weather warnings • “Pass-thru” mode supported on circuit-switched dial-up for direct access by Davis proprietary software. • Solar-powered sites. • Current trial is with 20 sites.
Case Study – Sports Playing FieldsParramatta Council • Field lighting and irrigation control for 34 park sites. • Remote scheduling of lighting & irrigation. • SMS override by club members if training is cancelled – significant energy savings. • Access control to amenities buildings.
Case Study – Water Quality MonitoringSentinel Pty Ltd • Stream water-quality monitoring at mine sites around Australia (Next G) and in Asia (GSM/GPRS). • Next G packet-based data transfer to Sentinel’s server. • Direct interface to Hydrolab MS5 probe. (Depth, pH, turbidity, dissolved Oxygen, conductivity) • All sites are solar-powered.
Case Study – Channel Irrigation • On-farm automated irrigation channel gate control system. • CV3000 Next G hub, plus radio-node at each gate. • Automated sequencing of gate opening and closing. • Bay level detection. • Significant improvement to water management • A trial farm site with 80 gates is due for installation.
Case Study – Railway-CrossingsA.R.T.C. • Monitoring of rail-crossing fault-detection equipment. • Measurement/Logging of rail and ambient temperatures. • Next G packet-data log/fault transfer to central server. • SMS Alarms
Case Study – Reservoir ControlGunning Shire Council • CDMA to Next G conversion. • Pump monitoring. • Reservoir level monitoring. • Pump control based on reservoir levels. • Mix of solar and mains-powered sites.
Temp/RH/Dewpoint(Solar-shield removed) Other Applications • CellVisor has been applied to a range of applications: • Bore Pump, Lateral/Pivot Irrigator monitoring. • Radio Tower monitoring. • Fire-fighting Pump controller - stand-alone. • Frost detector - Temp/RH/Dewpoint
Solar/Low-Power • In “Standby” mode, the CV3000 draws around 50 mA (Modem inactive) • On change of any input, the CV3000 will wake immediately and will SMS an alarm or start logging pulses. • SMS Control achieved by “checking mailbox” on wake.
