El-Watch’s wireless IoT solutions can be employed in endless ways; we simply started developing a handful of solutions and gradually expanded from there. Currently, we provide sensors for monitoring conditions, consumption, and performance in buildings, industries, agriculture, and transport. Our sensors increase efficiency, enhance safety, and promote sustainability in all these fields.
At El-Watch, we specialize in optimizing sensor solutions for various purposes. We offer more than 50 types of sensors, all of which are easy to install and use. Once connected, they immediately reduce your expenditures. Our wireless IoT solutions are designed to make operation automation and predictive maintenance as effortless as possible.
Industry
Wireless IoT solutions are beneficial for industrial automation, but more so, we like to focus on predictive maintenance. Monitoring machines and equipment enables your company to operate at optimal capacity without the risk of equipment overwork or machine breakdown.
In short, predictive maintenance entails constant surveillance to predict when your machines and equipment need maintenance. This enables you to safely run your operation at maximum capacity and minimize upkeep expenses. Unnecessary maintenance leads to a massive waste of resources, which is what we like to prevent.
Our customers employ predictive maintenance in a wide range of industries. For example, one lumber supplier boosted their production by nearly 50 percent by investing in our sensors. Another timber corporation avoided a costly machine breakdown by installing El-Watch monitoring solutions.
Buildings
Building automation is a hot topic these days, not just because it unlocks the enormous saving potential in daily building operations but because it promotes sustainability. Automated HVAC considerably lowers energy and maintenance costs.
At a multi-tenanted commercial property that spans approximately 60,000 square meters, the slowdown of boilers, coolers, and fans during off-hours resulted in a yearly energy reduction of about 35 percent.
Read more in our article about the gains you get from investing in wireless temperature sensors.
A building’s ventilation system uses heat exchangers for repurposing the energy from exhausted air, which is then used to heat the intake air. With temperature sensors installed, the heat exchange rate will be securely monitored for performance deviation.
Imagine if the same principles are applied in all building systems, ensuring that water, air, lighting, electricity, and safety are kept at optimal capacity.
Research shows that building automation can lower your energy consumption by 24 percent or more. It is also found that temperature management improves workplace productivity, which can increase your revenue considerably in the long run.
Agriculture
Safety is essential in most industries, and agriculture is no exception. Overheated electrical systems cause 70 percent of all fires on farms. Our wireless IoT system detects rising temperatures in power distribution cabinets before fire erupts.
The El-Watch fire detection system is entirely wireless, easily managed in our app, and can be customized to every farm’s requirements. In addition to fire detection, our temperature monitoring, humidity sensors, and power management systems will make any farming operation more sustainable.
For one, proper crop management leads to improved crop conditions which significantly reduces plant waste. Secondly, better-controlled plant growth enables farmers to use fewer pesticides, which hugely benefits the environment.

Modern agriculture, with its robots and high grade of automation, doesn’t differ much from process industries. Hence, predictive maintenance should be a top priority for farmers seeking a more predictable workday and optimum health of assets and crops.
Transportation
Did you know that trucks consume more gas if their tire pressure is too low? It might not be much per vehicle, but if all trucks on the planet install tire pressure monitor systems, the total reduction of gas consumption and C02 emissions are considerable.
Another benefit of installing a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) is transporting standstill prevention. TPMS enables early tire failure detection, meaning that you can change tires before they rupture and save time and expenses on needless standstills.
Correct tire pressure and failure detection also come with the added benefit of improved traffic safety. Read more about this in our article about El-Watch’s patented Neuron Tyre Health System. We set out to make the most user-friendly and cost-effective TPMS in the world, which we are proud to say we achieved.
Your El-Watching future
As mentioned, there is no end to the application possibilities of wireless IoT sensors. They are an integral part of smart cities development and Industry 4.0. Likewise, IoT sensors improve healthcare and improve sustainability worldwide.
We at El-Watch started in one corner of the wireless sensor industry and worked our way outwards. Today, we supply companies of all sizes with wireless IoT monitoring. Our engineers have developed solutions for restaurants, farmers, transport companies, and factories.
We are especially proud of the predictive maintenance and increased efficiency we provide and generate in the industrial sector. Among our current clients are some of Norway’s largest timber corporations and planing mills, as well as the world’s most energy-efficient smelter plant.
