Send the measured signals, alarm rules, site power and communication constraints. We will return a hardware configuration for quotation.
Problem to solve
Overflow is usually discovered after water loss, site damage or manual inspection. The monitoring path must identify high level early and send the alarm through a reliable network.
Measurements that matter
- High level threshold
- Overflow state
- Gateway online status
- Optional pump or valve feedback
Suggested hardware configuration
- Radar or ultrasonic level sensor
- RS485 / Modbus or wireless node
- LoRaWAN, NB-IoT or 4G gateway
- Alarm payload to dashboard, cloud or SCADA
Typical Hardware Architecture
Final system design, software integration, PLC/SCADA programming and site installation are handled by the customer or their system integrator.

FAQ
What does SunGene need before quoting Water Tank Overflow Alarm?
Please provide tank height and liquid type, alarm threshold and response time, power source and network coverage, target country and communication preference. These inputs determine the sensor, gateway, power and integration path.
Is this a software-only service?
No. SunGene supplies sensors, gateways, field connectivity hardware and documented data-handoff interfaces for the buyer or integrator. Software-platform configuration and operation are outside the standard hardware scope.
Can SunGene support custom configuration if needed?
Yes, after the hardware configuration, certificates, sample quantity and documentation scope are clear.
Which technologies are usually considered?
The typical shortlist includes Water level, RS485, LoRaWAN, NB-IoT, 4G LTE. Final selection depends on site constraints and target country requirements.
