MLP PROCESS — Gas telemetry

Know exactly how much gas you have. To the litre, live.

We supply a telemetry module and a platform that show three concrete readings: fill level, flow and consumption. From cylinders, bundles, tanks and dedicated installations — all in one place.

Three truths from the sensor

One measurement — three answers.

We measure cylinder pressure with pressure-to-current transmitters and calculate: how much gas is left, how fast it is being used and how much was consumed over a given period.

/ 01

Fill level

How much is actually left in the cylinder, bundle or tank. Read in percent or mass units — no manual checks and no surprises at the end of a shift.

/ 02

Flow

Instantaneous gas draw in real time. You see when the installation is running and when it is idle — and whether flow stays within the set thresholds.

/ 03

Consumption

How much gas you really use — between tank refills and cylinder swaps. We count refill data daily and monthly.

What we monitor

Four kinds of assets. One platform.

Our telemetry focuses on gas in its typical storage and distribution forms — but the module will handle any asset that provides a measurement signal.

Cylinders

Single cylinders of industrial, food-grade or medical gas — with a live status reading.

Bundles

Cylinder bundles and packs treated as a single asset — total stock and draw in real time.

Tanks

Stationary LPG and industrial gas tanks — level and consumption without site walk-arounds.

Dedicated installations

Custom process setups and site-specific installations — telemetry tailored to fit.

How it works

From the sensor, through the module, to your screen.

01 Measurement

Sensor

By default we read data over a 4–20 mA current loop — a standard that works with almost any sensor or transmitter. We can also acquire data via Modbus RTU.

4–20 mAModbus RTUF = A·I + B
02 Acquisition

K8 module

The module calibrates, scales and forwards data — from eight channels at once. The isolated RS-485 bus plugs it into your existing automation.

8 channelsSCADA / PLC
03 Visualisation

Cloud & app

Data goes to the cloud and the app — the recommended mode of operation. Local viewing over WiFi is possible, but we treat it as a fallback.

Cloud + appLocal view (option)

The current loop is a starting point, not a limit. The K8 module is expandable — from simple analogue measurement to full integration with industrial buses and supervisory systems.

Device

The K8 telemetry module.

We design our own hardware. One module, eight measurement channels and a full set of interfaces — from a local alarm to the cloud.

  • 24 V DC power supply
  • 2″ touchscreen — optional
App & cloud

Configure locally. Monitor in the cloud.

The free app is your configuration and service tool. The cloud adds history, visualisation and teamwork.

iOSAndroidWWW 4″ / 7″ display — local view over WiFi (option)

Live visualisation

Fill level and flow updated in real time.

Consumption history

A complete daily and hourly record of collected data.

Team & access

User management and shared access to devices.

NFC logging

Checks based on staff and service technicians’ NFC cards — straight from the reader in the module.

PUSH / SMS alerts

In-app, push and SMS notifications based on rules you define.

Multiple devices

Track many modules within a single account.

Expandability

One device is just the start. Connect them into a network.

Modules don’t work in isolation — WiFi (internal network) and LTE (cloud) are always available, and Modbus runs in one of two modes: master or slave.

WiFi BETWEEN MODULES · LTE TO CLOUD CLOUD LTE K8 K8 gateway K8 WiFi WiFi MODBUS — MASTER OR SLAVE 1 · MASTER MODE — module polls K8 FLOW METER reads — or — 2 · SLAVE MODE — serves data SCADA / PLC K8 reads

WiFi — internal network

Always available. Modules talk to each other over WiFi (mesh), exchanging data locally — no extra cabling.

LTE — the path to the cloud

Always available. Data is collected locally in the network and sent to the cloud by one module — the gateway — over LTE. It is the only way data leaves the site, independent of local infrastructure.

Modbus — master or slave

The Modbus RTU bus (RS-485, galvanically isolated) runs in one of two modes. As master, the module polls other devices itself — e.g. reads a flow meter. As slave, it serves its own data to a supervisory system that reads it — SCADA or PLC.

MLP PROCESS local display — cylinder levels for O₂, He, Ar, N₂, CH₄ and C₂H₂
Local view

Local display.

An internal touchscreen, mounted on site, showing the installation status — no phone and no internet needed. It connects to the modules by radio or by wire.

Wireless

The display connects to the modules wirelessly over the local WiFi network — no new cabling required.

Wired

Where radio can’t reach or isn’t wanted — a stable cable connection, immune to interference.

Many transmitters on one screen

One display collects readings from many transmitters and modules at once. Every cylinder, bundle or tank gets its own gauge and current pressure.

You can also view data locally — on a 4″ or 7″ display over WiFi, without the cloud. This is, however, a fallback mode: full history, alerts and visualisation come only with the cloud.

Order with installation

Telemetry ready to work — installation included.

Devices are only half the job. Design and installation of the gas system are handled by our partner — Air2Gas, a company specialising in industrial and specialty gas installations.
