Anonymous scenario

Remote Water Tank Site with Solar Power

An anonymous water monitoring scenario for a remote tank site that needed level alarms, solar power and cellular backhaul.

This is an anonymized reference scenario based on common buyer requirements. It is not presented as a named public customer deployment.

Representative product-family images. The exact model, interfaces and enclosure are confirmed in the written quotation.

Planning a similar site?

Send the site count, signals, network, power and reporting target. We will return a comparable hardware configuration for quotation.

Start from the site condition

Models and quotation stay on sungeneiot.com. Use the matching field condition first.

Anonymized buyer

A utility buyer evaluating remote water tank monitoring for unmanned outdoor sites.

Challenge

The site had no reliable mains power, and manual visits were too slow to catch low-level or overflow conditions.

Typical Hardware Architecture

Final system design, software integration, PLC/SCADA programming and site installation are handled by the customer or their system integrator.

Site context

  • Outdoor tank with limited cabinet space
  • Solar power preferred for field deployment
  • Alarm data needed by a remote operations team

Approach

  • Shortlist level sensor options by tank height and liquid condition
  • Size a solar battery package around reporting interval
  • Use gateway heartbeat to separate power and network issues

Hardware plan

  • Radar or ultrasonic level sensor
  • Solar-ready outdoor enclosure
  • 4G LTE gateway or LoRaWAN node and gateway
  • Battery and antenna accessories

Hardware reference

Representative product-family images. Exact model, interfaces and enclosure are confirmed in the written quote.

Integration path

  • Level and battery status mapped into alert fields
  • MQTT or dashboard-ready payload
  • Pilot package before multi-site rollout

Outcome

  • Clearer RFQ inputs for tank height, power and alarm threshold
  • Reduced risk of selecting a sensor without mounting review
  • A repeatable pilot bundle for similar tank sites

Quote inputs

  • Tank height and mounting photos
  • Alarm thresholds
  • Power autonomy target
  • Target country and network preference

FAQ

Is this a public customer case study?

No. This is an anonymized scenario page based on common buyer requirements. It does not disclose customer names, supplier names, model numbers, prices or private documents.

Can SunGene prepare a similar package?

Yes. SunGene can review the application, quote inputs and integration path, then prepare a hardware-first sample or pilot package when the scope is clear.

What technologies are involved?

The scenario usually involves Water level, Solar power, 4G LTE, LoRaWAN. Final selection depends on target country, site constraints and integration requirements.

What should a buyer provide for Remote Water Tank Site with Solar Power?

Useful RFQ inputs include tank height and mounting photos, alarm thresholds, power autonomy target, target country and network preference.
