LoRaWAN Telemetry & Remote Well Control in Menorca
Monitor water levels in deep wells, rainwater cisterns, irrigation pumps and remote solar installations across kilometers of Menorcan countryside without cables, trenching or recurring mobile SIM data fees.
Water & Energy in Rural Menorca: Complete Remote Control
In rural Menorca, water is the most precious and difficult asset to manage. Historical fincas often feature ancient cisterns (aljubs) hundreds of meters from the main house, deep water wells with solar pump stations, and dead zones with zero 4G/5G mobile phone coverage. Traditionally, checking water reserves meant driving out physically to inspect each tank.
STAVION deploys private LoRaWAN (Long Range Wide Area Network) infrastructures operating on license-free 868 MHz frequencies. A single gateway installed on your finca's roof can receive signals from battery-powered sensors scattered up to 10–15 kilometers away, transmitting data straight to your smartphone.
Typical Rural Telemetry Deployments
- Deep Well Water Depth Probes: Submersible piezoresistive pressure sensors measuring exact water column meters (50m, 100m, 200m depth) to prevent pump cavitation and dry running.
- Rainwater Cisterns & Tanks: Ultrasonic or hydrostatic sensors reporting remaining liters, daily consumption rate and estimated days of reserve.
- Remote Well Pump Actuation: Start or stop three-phase borehole pumps remotely based on tank levels, electricity time-of-use tariffs or solar generation availability.
- Electric Fence & Gate Alarms: Voltage sensors on livestock perimeter fencing alerting instantly if a branch falls or animals breach the wire.
