March 15, 2017 – OleumTech Corporation, a provider of M2M communications and industrial automation solutions, announced a partnership with Sigfox, a provider of connectivity for the Internet of Things (IoT). As one of the largest Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) partnerships for Sigfox globally to-date, the partnership is intended to benefit customers with Low Power Wide Area (LPWA) wireless connectivity leveraging OleumTech’s self-contained, battery-powered wireless transmitter technology.
OleumTech manufactures and distributes industrial wireless automation systems across sectors including Water and Energy. With a global installed base of over 350,000 devices, OleumTech’s products provide critical data for measurement variables such as pressure, flow, temperature, level, moisture, etc.
With the majority of industrial and utility assets isolated or too expensive to connect through tradition means, Sigfox’s LPWAN network provides a connectivity solution for the industry as a whole, enabling low device battery consumption and scalability on a global level.
The General Purpose line of OleumTech wireless instruments with embedded Sigfox connectivity will be available by the end of Q2 2017.
