Level in process tanks, with no cabling and no SCADA to start
Tanks for oils, service fluids, condensate, process water often stand where no cables were run. The Aquilo sensor gives a measurement a quarter of an hour after unboxing and hands the data over a REST API.
The problem
What happens when nobody is looking
The tank is too far from the control cabinet
A signal cable across the hall and the yard costs more than the measurement. The radio transmitter hangs in the tank and the receiver sits by the router, or you take LTE and need no infrastructure at all.
Manual readings on every shift
Level in the panel and in the API every few minutes, with 2 years of history and CSV export. The manual reading stays as a check, not as a process.
Integration with what is already there
REST API with OpenAPI documentation, a separate organisation account with roles. The data lands in SCADA, BI or a spreadsheet, wherever the team already works.
Installation
It hangs under the lid. Nothing touches the liquid.
The transmitter hangs under the tank lid or in an inspection nozzle, above the medium, with no contact with the liquid, so material compatibility with the medium is not an issue. IP67 housing, operating temperature range as in the datasheet. Before deploying on an aggressive medium or in an explosive atmosphere, talk to us: not every tank is right for this sensor.
Which variant
LTE: distributed sites
Warehouses, yards, branches: its own SIM card, no plant network. Premium LTE Flex plan per tank.
Aquilo LTE Liquid Level Sensor Wireless →Mains-powered WiFi: the hall
With 230 V power the readings come more often; the receiver sits on the plant network and the data goes out over the API.
Aquilo WIFI Liquid Level Sensor Mains-Powered →Panel and API
Every site in one Panel
Sensor data is available in the web Panel, a list and a map of all the organisation’s sites with the last reading, battery level and signal, and over the REST API, which can feed SCADA, GIS or a dispatch system. The duty officer sees alarms in the Panel and in the mobile app.
- Web Panel: all tanks and locations on one list
- Organisation account, roles, many locations
- Thresholds and alarms for each tank separately
- REST API + OpenAPI
- CSV export, 2 years of history
Premium LTE Flex for each tank

Industry
Rollout for organisations
We start with a few sites, tune thresholds and roles, then scale up. Service and spare parts in the EU.
Let’s talk about a rollout“Excellent contact and advice. The device is well thought out and, most importantly, it works.”
- Organisation account: many sites, administrator / service / viewer roles
- REST API with OpenAPI documentation: data for SCADA, GIS, BI
- Logger mode in LTE for places with patchy coverage
- A pilot on a few sites before the rollout decision
