PMIOT-INCLINO – Autonomous biaxial IoT inclinometer for remote monitoring

Overview

The PMIOT-INCLINO is an autonomous monitoring solution designed to remotely measure and track inclination variations of a structure, a building or an equipment.

Its MEMS sensor measures angular evolution along the X and Y axes. Data is automatically acquired, recorded and transmitted to PMI-CloudVIEW or to the client's server in order to visualize trends, compare measurements over time and trigger alerts in case of threshold exceedance.

Compact and autonomous, the PMIOT-INCLINO allows a site to be instrumented quickly without installing a complex acquisition system or local IT infrastructure. It is suitable for both a temporary diagnostic campaign and long-term structural monitoring.

The current page notably states that communication can use NB-IoT and 4G, with MQTT transmission to PMI-CloudVIEW or a third-party platform.

Monitoring and data transmission

The PMIOT-INCLINO automatically performs measurements according to the frequency defined for the project.

Data can be transmitted via NB-IoT / 4G cellular networks, without a local gateway. The measurement frequency and transmission frequency can thus be adapted to the behavior of the structure and the desired battery life.

With the local storage option, measurements are also saved on a microSD card to secure data in case of temporary network loss. In PMI-CloudVIEW, the user can in particular:

• track X and Y inclinations;
• visualize their evolution over time;
• define vigilance and alert thresholds;
• view events and history;
• monitor system and communication status.

MQTT communication, the 32 GB microSD and frequency configuration are already mentioned on the current page.

FAQ

• What is the battery life of the PMIOT-FISSUR?
  Battery life depends on the measurement and transmission frequency. Solar power can be offered for long-term installations.

• Is network infrastructure required on site?
  No. Depending on the configuration, the system can transmit data directly via NB-IoT, 4G/LTE or Wi-Fi.

• Which measuring ranges are available?
  The range depends on the selected sensor: up to 1,000 mm in potentiometric, 500 mm in LVDT and 800 mm in inductive.

• Can a platform other than PMI-CloudVIEW be used?
  Yes. Depending on the project, data can be sent to PMI-CloudVIEW or integrated into a third-party server.
