Mining & Resources Remote Monitoring Solutions
Know what’s happening across your remote sites — without travelling to every tank or asset.
Monitor fuel, water and other critical fluids across mine sites and remote operations. LevelCon connects compatible sensors and gateways with an online monitoring platform, helping operators view current conditions, receive alerts and respond earlier when attention is required.
Monitor Critical Mine-Site Supplies Remotely
Fuel, water, bitumen emulsion and other critical fluids may be stored across large mine sites and remote operating locations. Remote monitoring provides greater visibility between physical inspections and helps teams identify changing conditions, prioritise site visits and plan replenishment more effectively.
Reduce Manual Inspections
Check compatible measurements remotely and reduce unnecessary trips to individual tanks, facilities and remote operating areas.
Prevent Unexpected Shortages
Identify declining fuel, water or other critical supplies earlier, allowing more time to arrange replenishment or investigate abnormal usage.
Receive Automatic Alerts
Configure alerts for defined limits or unexpected changes so the appropriate personnel can respond when attention is required.
Monitor Multiple Locations
Bring measurements from tanks and critical assets across distributed mine sites into one monitoring platform.
Mining and Resources Monitoring Applications
Every mine site and application is different. Metromatics can help identify a suitable combination of LevelCon gateway, compatible sensor, power arrangement and communications method for the asset and location.
Bulk Diesel and Fuel Storage
Monitor fuel levels and usage trends across bulk diesel tanks, fuel farms and remote storage locations. Improved visibility can support replenishment planning and help reduce the risk of unexpected shortages.
Lubricants and Oils
Monitor compatible lubricant and oil storage tanks used to support mining equipment and maintenance operations. Sensor selection will depend on the stored product, tank construction and required measurement.
Process and Service Water
Monitor water stored for processing, dust suppression, equipment washing and other mine-site requirements. Alerts can provide earlier warning when tank levels reach defined limits or change unexpectedly.
Reagents and Chemical Storage
Monitor compatible reagent and chemical storage tanks used in mineral processing and site operations. The appropriate sensor and installation method will depend on the stored substance, tank construction, operating conditions and site safety requirements.
Generator and Equipment Fuel
Monitor fuel tanks supplying generators, pumps and other critical equipment at remote locations. Remote visibility can help operators identify declining supplies before equipment operation is affected.
Remote and Temporary Site Tanks
Monitor tanks located at exploration camps, temporary facilities, satellite operations and other difficult-to-access areas. Cellular or satellite communications may be considered depending on coverage and site requirements.
Measure. Connect. Monitor.
Measure
A compatible sensor collects the required measurement, such as level, pressure, temperature or flow.
Connect
A LevelCon gateway transmits the measurement using an appropriate cellular or satellite communications option.
Monitor
Authorised users can view current readings, historical trends, asset locations and alert status through the LevelCon platform.
See Your Remote Assets in One Place.
The LevelCon monitoring platform brings connected gateways, sensors and monitored assets into one dashboard. Operators can review current readings, view historical information and receive alerts from a computer or compatible mobile device.
- View current measurements and equipment status
- Configure relevant low- and high-level alerts
- Review historical trends and usage information
- See monitored assets across multiple locations
- Provide access to authorised team members
- Receive notifications via e-mail or text when defined conditions occur
- Support replenishment and maintenance planning
Choosing the Right LevelCon Products
There is no single configuration for every mining or resources application. The appropriate gateway, sensor, power arrangement and communications method will depend on the asset, required measurement, installation environment and operating conditions.
To help Metromatics identify a suitable approach, tell us:
- What needs to be monitored
- What the tank or asset contains
- Tank dimensions and construction
- Required measurements
- Number and location of assets
- Available power at each location
- Cellular coverage at the site
- Existing sensors or field instruments
- Temperature, dust, vibration and exposure conditions
- Any hazardous-area or site certification requirements
- Required alerts, reporting or system integration
Equipment suitability and compatibility should be confirmed before installation, particularly for chemicals, fuels and hazardous locations.
Connectivity for Remote Mine Sites
Mining and resources operations may include assets located beyond fixed communications and power infrastructure. Depending on the selected equipment and site conditions, LevelCon configurations may support cellular or satellite communications and battery or solar-assisted operation.
Metromatics can help assess:
- Cellular coverage at each monitoring location
- Whether satellite communication should be considered
- Available mains, battery or solar power
- Required reporting frequency
- Environmental and installation conditions
- The number of tanks and sites to be monitored
