Renesas Electronics Remote Industrial Process Monitoring System

More About Renesas Electronics

Renesas Electronics Remote Industrial Process Monitoring System is a self-sustainable system for monitoring remote industrial processes. Dissipated heat can be recycled to electrical energy and power the electronics system used for monitoring and transmission of process data.

Features

Self-sustainable process monitoring system eliminating wiring
Energy harvesting control circuit with built-in MCU ensures ultra-low power consumption
System power is generated by a thermoelectric generator (TEG)

Back up energy through a battery and supercapacitor for no harvesting periods
On-board long-range (LoRa) transmitter with mesh network support ensuring wide range transmission with ultra-low power consumption
Optimized system architecture using the interleaved operation of sensor and data transmission via LoRa for balancing power in the system

Applications

Remote industrial process monitoring where power is not available and system is not easily accessible
Predictive maintenance
Flow rate, temperature, gas, humidity monitoring
