ProSense Expands Portfolio with Rika Sensors for Enhanced Environmental Monitoring Solutions

In today's fast-paced world, environmental awareness is more important than ever. ProSense is excited to announce our partnership with Rika Sensors, a move that enhances our ability to offer high-quality and affordable environmental and agricultural monitoring solutions. With Rika's reliable sensors fully integrated with ProSight cloud dashboards, users can expect seamless tracking and management of vital environmental data.


Product Lineup Overview


ProSense now boasts a comprehensive range of sensors tailored for various environmental monitoring needs. Here’s what we offer:


Weather Stations & Meteorology


Our weather stations monitor critical meteorological parameters, including wind speed, rainfall, solar radiation, and barometric pressure. For instance, knowing that a sudden increase in rainfall can lead to waterlogged fields allows farmers to take proactive measures. These sensors are essential for those interested in understanding weather patterns and their impact on agriculture, water management, and ecological research.


Soil Sensors


Soil health is crucial for successful agriculture and sustainability. ProSense provides soil sensors that measure moisture, temperature, and electrical conductivity (EC), as well as multi-depth probes. For example, farmers can determine the optimal times for irrigation or fertilisation based on real-time soil conditions, leading to increased crop yields and more efficient resource usage.


Water Sensors


Effective water management is vital across various sectors, including agriculture and wastewater treatment. ProSense offers water sensors that monitor levels, flow, and leakage. Studies have shown that preventing leaks can save organisations up to 30% on water costs. Our sensors help ensure efficient water usage, making them an indispensable part of any water management strategy.


Water Quality Sensors


Maintaining high water quality is essential for human consumption and ecological health. ProSense's water quality sensors measure parameters like pH, EC/TDS, dissolved oxygen (DO), turbidity, and temperature. With multi-parameter options available, users can gain valuable insights into water quality, supporting effective management and compliance with environmental standards. For example, local authorities can utilise this data to ensure safe drinking water while monitoring its environmental impact.


Advantages of ProSense and Rika


The collaboration between ProSense and Rika Sensors brings numerous benefits to users, making our products a compelling choice for environmental monitoring.


High Accuracy at Lower Costs


Rika Sensors are built for high accuracy while keeping ownership costs low. This means users can invest in trusted monitoring solutions without significant financial strain. For instance, organisations that switch to our sensors can expect a 20% reduction in maintenance costs over time due to their reliable performance.


Versatile Industrial Interfaces


ProSense ensures our sensors work with various industrial interfaces, such as RS-485/Modbus, 4–20 mA/0–10 V, SDI-12, and LoRaWAN/4G options. This wide-ranging compatibility means easy integration into existing systems, enhancing the overall functionality of monitoring setups.


Comprehensive Delivery Model


ProSense offers an end-to-end delivery model, including hardware, installation kits, gateways, and access to the ProSight cloud platform. This all-in-one approach simplifies the process and allows users to focus on what matters most: effective monitoring.


Local Australian Support


One of ProSense's standout features is its local support. Users can access expert guidance in selection, setup, calibration, and maintenance. This commitment to local service ensures timely and relevant support tailored to specific needs, helping customers maximise their investment in monitoring solutions.


Target Applications


The partnership between ProSense and Rika Sensors caters to various industries and applications, including:


  • Water & Wastewater Management: Ensuring efficient water use and compliance with regulations, which can help conserve up to 25% more water in urban settings.

  • Agriculture and Farming: Equipping farmers with tools to monitor soil and water conditions, ultimately improving crop yields by up to 40%.

  • Solar Farms: Monitoring environmental conditions is crucial for optimising solar energy production.
