vanwaltDataGateway

The vanwaltDataGateway is a cellular telemetry solution designed, developed and manufactured by Van Walt in the UK. Designed for networks with multi-sensor requirements: (e.g. water level, pH, EC, redox, temperature, rainfall, water flow, soil moisture, turbidity, and other water quality parameters), the Gateway is ideal for distributed environmental monitoring networks.

Advantages

The vanwaltDataGateway allows new and existing vanwaltDataNodes to be converted into a telemetry system with remote access and frequent uploads to the cloud, improving accessibility to data and eliminating the need for frequent site visits.

Made for reliable data collection in remote locations, the system acts as a central hub capable of receiving data from up to 32 DataNodes via line-of-sight radio transmission.
The DataGateway is a compact solution for your telemetry needs, with a front mounted solar panel for low maintenance and discreet installations.
Robust Construction: Housed in a heavy-duty, IP68-rated aluminium enclosure.
Secure Data Storage: Utilises non-volatile, encrypted memory to ensure reliable and secure data retention.
