Managing resources efficiently is a challenge for many farms and industrial sites. Keeping track of tank levels for water, fuel, chemicals, and bulk materials often means manual checks that consume time and risk errors. The ProSense Wireless Ultrasonic Level Monitoring Kit offers a practical solution that brings real-time visibility and control to your resource management. This system combines easy installation, reliable 4G cellular connectivity, and cloud-based monitoring to help you stay informed and reduce downtime.
How ProSense Simplifies Resource Monitoring
The ProSense system uses an industrial-grade ultrasonic sensor that measures the distance from the sensor to the surface of the material inside the tank. This measurement translates into accurate level readings for liquids like water, diesel, and chemicals, as well as bulk solids such as grain and fertiliser. The sensor connects wirelessly via 4G cellular networks, eliminating the need for trenching, hardwiring, or installing gateways.
This wireless setup means you can install the tank sensor in minutes, even in remote locations. The data streams securely to the ProSight Cloud Platform, where you can access live dashboards, historical trends, and alerts from any device with internet access.
Key Benefits for Farms and Smart Farms
Farms today are increasingly adopting smart technologies to improve efficiency and reduce waste. The ProSense system fits perfectly into this trend by offering:
Multi-material monitoring: Track water, fuel, chemicals, grain, and fertiliser levels with one sensor type.
Wireless 4G connectivity: No need for complex infrastructure or local networks.
Real-time alerts: Receive SMS or email notifications when levels are too low or too high, helping prevent shortages or overflows.
Scalable management: Monitor a single tank or hundreds across multiple farm sites from one platform.
Expandable system: Add sensors for temperature, humidity, pressure, flow, or weather to get a fuller picture of your operations.
By reducing manual checks, the system saves time and lowers the risk of running out of critical resources. This leads to better planning and fewer interruptions in farm activities.
Installation and Setup Made Easy
One of the standout features of the ProSense kit is its simplicity. The ultrasonic tank sensor installs quickly without digging trenches or running cables. It does not require a separate gateway because it connects directly to 4G cellular networks. This makes it ideal for farms and remote sites where infrastructure can be limited.
Once installed, the sensor automatically starts sending data to the ProSight Cloud Platform. The included annual subscription provides access to:
Real-time dashboards showing current tank levels
Historical graphs to track usage trends over time
Configurable alarms and notifications via SMS and email
Automated reporting for record-keeping and analysis
After the first year, the subscription continues at a low monthly cost, making this a cost-effective long-term solution.
Practical Examples of ProSense in Action
Imagine a farm managing multiple water tanks across a large property. Without remote monitoring, staff must physically check each tank regularly. This takes time and can lead to missed low levels that affect irrigation schedules. With ProSense, the farmer receives instant alerts when water levels drop below a set threshold. This allows timely refilling and avoids crop stress.
Similarly, fuel storage tanks for farm machinery can be monitored remotely. The system tracks fuel consumption trends and sends warnings before tanks run empty. This prevents costly downtime during critical planting or harvesting periods.
In grain storage, the ultrasonic sensor measures bulk levels accurately, helping farmers plan sales and storage logistics. The ability to view historical data also supports better inventory management.
Why Choose ProSense for Your Resource Monitoring
Australian stocked and supported: Fast delivery and local phone/email support ensure help is available when needed.
No infrastructure headaches: Wireless 4G connectivity means no trenching or cabling.
Flexible integration: Use the ProSight Cloud Platform or connect the sensor to your existing monitoring system.
Expandable and scalable: Add more sensors or manage multiple sites easily.
Affordable subscription: Low ongoing costs after the first year keep the system budget-friendly.
This combination of features makes ProSense a practical choice for farms and other operations looking to improve resource management with minimal hassle.
