Vanmok LoRaWAN Edge – Copy

Reliable Data Acquisition Beyond Cellular Coverage

Overview

Vanmok’s LoRaWAN platform enables seamless, low-power, long-range wireless communication for remote sites where cellular or wired connectivity is unavailable.

Designed for rugged industrial environments, it provides end-to-end data acquisition, edge storage, and real-time monitoring for critical assets such as oil & gas pipelines to water networks and environmental sensors.

Key Features

  • Zero-Cellular Dependence: Operates fully in areas without LTE/4G/5G coverage using LoRaWAN gateways and node repeaters.
  • Multi-Instrument Connectivity: Collects analog (4–20 mA / 0–10 V), digital, RS-485/Modbus, or pulse signals from pressure, flow, temperature, or level transmitters.
  • Edge Storage & Cloud Sync: Local buffer storage ensures no data loss; auto-synchs to Vanmok LD Cloud when backhaul (cellular, satellite, or Ethernet) becomes available.
  • Ultra-Low Power: Solar and battery-powered configurations allow >3 years of autonomous operation.
  • Encrypted & Secure: AES-128 encryption, device authentication, and configurable over-the-air updates.
  • Plug-and-Play Integration: Compatible with Vanmok LD Cloud, AWS IoT Core, or on-prem SCADA servers.

System Architecture

  • Field Nodes: LoRaWAN transmitters acquire data from sensors.
  • LoRa Gateways: Aggregate data locally; provide optional cellular, satellite, or Ethernet backhaul.
  • Vanmok LD Edge: Edge-level computation and data integrity checks.
  • Vanmok LD Cloud: Centralized monitoring, visualization, and leak detection analytics.

Applications

Oil & Gas Pipelines

  • Real-time monitoring of pressure, flow, and temperature at remote block valves, laterals, and stub lines.
  • Provides leak detection telemetry where cellular modems are not viable.
  • Integrates with Vanmok LD Cloud for pressure-based leak and rupture detection (API 1130 / 1175 compliant).
  • Enables cost-effective compliance for short gathering pipelines under the PHMSA Mega Rule and CSA Z662-23.

Business Case:

LoRaWAN networks reduce telemetry CAPEX by >60% compared to traditional SCADA, and OPEX by >40% through autonomous, battery-powered nodes with no SIM cost.

Mining & Industrial Operations

  • Connects tailings dam sensors, flow meters, and pipeline pressure transmitters across vast, non-networked sites.
  • Supports both fixed and mobile LoRaWAN gateways for moving assets (e.g., slurry pumps).
  • Integrates with existing SCADA or Historian systems via MQTT/OPC-UA bridge.

Business Case:

Expands sensor coverage into deep-pit or mountain regions without trenching or radio repeaters, saving $50K+ per km of instrumentation.

Environmental & Agricultural Monitoring

  • Ideal for remote reservoirs, rivers, soil moisture, and air-quality sensors.
  • Provides continuous environmental data collection for ESG and sustainability reporting.
  • Works autonomously with solar/battery power and secure edge storage.

Business Case:

Supports large-scale, low-maintenance environmental IoT networks with minimal connectivity costs and up to 10-year battery life.
