Carefree solution for Industrial

Wireless Remote Monitoring

CiTop-IoT
What can be done with IoT SCADA?

• It brings the data wirelessly from any applications like pumps,

tanks, pipelines, street lights, processes, environmental meters
to the shared database and graphical Web SCADA service.
How it works?
• The field units use standard interfaces (like 4..20mA, 0-5V,
Modbus, controls, statuses) to communicate with field
devices (like sensors, relays, PLCs)
• Field unit can be programmed as PLC, it can have power
save modes and operate with battery or solar panel.
• Data is transferred wirelessly using long range NB-IoT
technology, which is new GSM standard (3GPP Standard)
especially designed for telemonitoring applications.
• Data is stored in Cloud database servers.
• Users can connect with the Web browser to IoT SCADA
service to see the collected data in graphical SCADA views
like alarms-, trends-, map-, process-, and report views.
• Alarms can be forwarded to GSM phones.
• Field units and IoT SCADA are remotely programmable.
 ✓ IoT SCADA communicates (bi-directionally) with CiTop-IoT’s I/O
sensors and controllers using variety of protocols or combination

IoT SCADA of protocols.

✓ Wireless Air Interface uses NB-IoT-, MQTT- and GSM/FTP
protocols and SMS messages. (also upcoming Satellite!)

communication & ✓ Supports HTTPS and REST.

✓ All the configuration and measurement data is stored to

interfaces continuously backed up databases. These databases work as an

interface to upper level tools, like CiTop’s IoT-reporting and IoT-
SCADA interface views or any 3rd party applications via opened
database interface.
Graphical IoT SCADA interface

✓ IoT SCADA has completely browser based SCADA views

which are build using main stream Grafana platform or any
other 3rd party SCADA via database connection.

✓ Grafana views connects with the database and provides

charts, graphs, and alerts for the web.

✓ Users can create complex monitoring dashboards using

interactive query builders and plug-in expansion modules.
IoT SCADA and Reporting
✓ IoT SCADA uses completely browser based, powerful yet
user-friendly and mainstream, reporting tools: Holistics
and Tableay or any 3rd party via database connection.

✓ All database connections, report querys and –calculations,

user role configurations and graphical widget designs are
done by system administrator (normally system supplier)
to fulfill end user’s specifications.

✓ End users can connect to report dashboard using web

browser and explore the data in most effective graphical
and/or text formats. The data can be visualized in many
types of charts and tables, e.g. trend, column-, pie, scatter,
bubble, combination, gauge, even geo map charts.

✓ Possible reports: Alarm, operating times, energy- and

other resources consumption, production, maintenance,
measurement averages, sum, max, min, gps location etc.

✓ Reports can be send automatically to e-mails. User can

also get e-mail alarms if something abnormal happens.
Why to choose IoT SCADA?

✓ Uses existing public mainstream technologies for data

communication. No need for own infrastructure.

✓ Existing PC’s and smartphones can be used as

interfaces.

✓ System is offered as complete service, No need for

own server or in-house software maintenance team.

✓ Applications are remotely maintainable

✓ Almost unlimited scalability

✓ Data can be shared via Internet

✓ Low initial costs, can be started with one test unit

✓ Long life-span, running in updated servers

✓ Carefree solution
Case 1: Ground water level
supervision

• CiTop-IoT’s field data collection units are

used in this ground water level supervision
application in Finland. The application is
running successfully and more units are
installed this year.
• Link: BBC made news about the this
project
 • Company manufactures Water purification
devices based on reverse osmosis. Devices
are used in locations where there is no
electricity and water quality is poor.
• Customer wanted to have remotely
Case 2: Water controlled & monitored system that
produces information about unit condition,
purification water consumption & production. One key
issue was that any malfunction cases should
be able to identify and if possible, solve
remotely even if there are no spare
parts/original spare parts available

Case 3: Pump and

sewage water level

 Applications
IoT SCADA can be used in almost any remote monitoring
application. It is especially powerful when wireless public ✓ Unmanned station supervision (Base stations, diesel
networks like NB-IoT, GSM, GPRS can be used for data generators, etc.)
communication.
✓ Transportation (GPS location, condition, etc.)
✓ Water distribution systems (pumps, level, flow, etc.)
✓ Agriculture (Irrigation systems)
✓ Environmental monitoring (groundwater, flood detection,
✓ Condition monitoring of automation systems (e.g using
pH, conductivity, dissolved oxygen, moisture, temperature,
Modbus interface)
CO2, TVOC, PM2.0, snow level, tree diameter etc.)
✓ Vibration detection for bearing wear.
✓ Street lighting control and energy saving system.
✓ Almost any other! Ask more!
✓ Storage tanks (level, consumption, etc.)

✓ Pipeline cathodic protection (CP transformer rectifiers -See

products! , related CP measurements, etc.)

✓ Integrated remote monitoring solutions for OEM devices

and applications

✓ Energy consumption metering
