Remote Irrigation & Field Telemetry
Overview
Pumps, valves, and soil probes report over Modbus and RS-485 to a central SCADA, and an operator can start or stop a pump by SMS when signal is marginal. The router and gateway bridge legacy field controllers to cellular, so water use is measured and managed without a truck roll to every wellhead.
Challenges
- Wellheads and pump houses are scattered across remote land
- Legacy pump controllers speak Modbus/RS-485, not IP
- Manual pump checks waste fuel and labour
- Water draw goes unmeasured until the monthly read
Benefits
- Modbus and RS-485 field devices bridged to cellular SCADA
- Remote pump start/stop, including SMS on weak signal
- Continuous flow and level telemetry
- Fewer site visits to inspect field equipment
