Technical Characteristics and Digital Integration
-
True Wireless Autonomy: The FWR30 is a self-contained unit powered by a high-capacity battery. It does not require any external power supply or signal wiring, which drastically reduces installation costs and allows for deployment in minutes.
-
Cloud-Native Connectivity: The sensor transmits data via cellular networks directly to the Endress+Hauser Netilion cloud. Users can access level data, history, and alarms through digital services such as Netilion Value (for simple monitoring), Netilion Inventory (for inventory management), or SupplyCare Hosting (for advanced supply chain logistics).
-
Integrated GPS Tracking: Beyond level measurement, the FWR30 features built-in GPS. This allows logistics and supply chain managers to track the physical location of mobile assets, such as IBCs (Intermediate Bulk Containers) or mobile silos, in real-time.
-
80 GHz Radar Technology: Despite its compact and wireless design, the device utilizes high-end 80 GHz radar technology. This ensures accurate, non-contact measurement through plastic tank ceilings (threaded mounting or mounting bracket) and is unaffected by weather or changing media.
-
Flexible Service Portfolio: The FWR30 is part of a complete digital ecosystem. Depending on the user’s needs, the data can be used for simple level alerts or integrated into a full supply chain management system to optimize refilling schedules and prevent stockouts.
-
End-to-End Security: Data transmission is fully encrypted and follows strict cybersecurity standards, ensuring that sensitive inventory information remains accessible only to authorized personnel from anywhere in the world.
