About WaterTrax
WaterTraX is an advanced satellite telemetry device specifically designed for water management & environmental monitoring.
By incorporating smarter electronics with the power to pre-process the data in the field, store the raw data and implement near real time alarms, we can reduce the size and frequency of satellite transmissions without compromise.
Power In A Small Package
Weighing in at a mere 500 grams and housed in a 140mm pressure stabilized weatherproof enclosure, the self-contained WaterTraX can be deployed anywhere with minimal site preparation reducing costs typically associated with telemetry systems.
Interacting with WaterTraX is intuitive and simple using any smart phone to access the built-in Wi-Fi APP to view, schedule and configure the system. Adding the convenience and safety of global messaging, you will experience what happens when practicality, experience and technology meet.
Built-in Global Text Messaging Service
Incorporated into WaterTraX is the industry acclaimed TextAnywhere two-way global satellite messaging service. Remote locations just became closer to home with increased safety and productivity.
Minimize expensive return trips to remote, hard to get to locations by knowing the system is working before you leave.
WaterTrax Advantages:
Cost Effective
At $1599 USD, WaterTrax is the most cost-effective satellite telemetry system on the market!
Deployment
A clear view of the sky is typically all that’s required to deploy WaterTraX anywhere in the world. Minimal site preparation means reduced material and labor costs compared to traditional telemetry systems.
Versatile
Designed to work with leading manufacturers sensors and instruments, WaterTraX is NOT limited to a certain brand or type. Custom applications are supported.
