SiteWatch
Temperature, corrosion and gas sensors over LoRaWAN on one screen. Runs on your own PC, no cloud account.
The Lab
Real builds from 30 years on the plant floor
LoRaWAN monitoring, power electronics and PLC tools, tested on the bench and proven with data. Buy what's shipping, join a pilot, or follow a build while it's still on the bench.

Case study3-silo simultaneous refill retrofit
Batch time
12.0 min
Powder stalls per shift
8
Silo refill
< 1 min
One blower used to feed three silos in turn, so the batcher starved. Each silo now has its own CLICK PLUS PLC, blower and airlock drive, with radar levels on 4–20 mA. 300 lb batches went from up to 12 minutes to under 3.
Projects
On the bench right now
Each project is tagged with where it stands, and the button matches: buy it, pilot it, or follow it.
LinkScout
Finds LoRaWAN devices, adds them, and grades each signal with a clear pass or fail before you install.
LoRaWAN to CompactLogix
Dragino D22-LB wireless sensors read straight into CompactLogix tags over EtherNet/IP, through an ADFweb HD67F25 gateway. No cloud server in the middle.
Looking for a few plants to pilot it.
SineForge
Pure-sine inverter designs from 1 kW to 20 kW, with an ESP32 touch screen for battery health, load, AC out and runtime left.
Research and development only. Not for sale.
LoopProof
Source, simulate and calibrate 4–20 mA loops from a laptop: a Windows app and a compact 3D-printed I/O unit.
DatumPLC
An ESP32-based PLC with 4–20 mA I/O, Modbus TCP, OPC UA and EtherNet/IP, programmed in ladder from a graphical Windows app.
Build log
Notes from the bench
- In progress: D22-LB readings into CompactLogix tags
Sensor to ADFweb HD67F25 gateway to CompactLogix over EtherNet/IP, with no server in between. - 20 kW on 48 V LFP strings
Battery banks switch in and out with the load, a listed transfer switch runs the house, and solar charges by day. - Graphical ladder editor for the ESP32 controller
Ladder logic drawn on screen and downloaded to the controller. - Proof of concept on a real installation
Built-in LoRaWAN network server, gateway signal levels, distance to the gateway, range rings on the floor plan and a phone app. - Temperature, corrosion and gas in one dashboard
TempWatch, CorroWatch (ISA-71.04) and GasWatch, with alarms, trends and signal health per sensor.
Why these exist
Built for a real problem first
Every project here started as something that went wrong on a line: a starved batcher, a sensor nobody could trust, a loop with no calibrator handy.
If you have the same problem, the fastest way to get a project moving is to say so below. Pilots get direct engineering time and a say in what gets built next.
