The use of a connected gauge on an IBC tank enables optimized, automated management of stored fluids. Unlike manual monitoring, which is often approximate and time-consuming, an intelligent level sensor ensures reliable, continuous measurement. Thanks to this technology, it is possible to anticipate needs, avoid stock-outs, limit manual intervention and receive automatic notifications in the event of critical levels or anomalies. This facilitates logistics planning, while improving traceability through access to consumption history. The connected monitoring solution provides a centralized view of all tanks, simplifying their day-to-day management.

Installation is quick and easy, whatever the type of IBC tank. It begins by connecting the level sensors, whether they operate by ultrasound, pressure, radar or other compatible technologies. Measured data are transmitted via a secure network (LoRa, Sigfox, NB-IoT, GSM), without the need for manual intervention. The sensors are then connected to a supervision platform, enabling levels to be consulted periodically, critical thresholds to be set, and consumption history to be accessed. The entire process is supported by a technical team, to ensure seamless integration and optimum monitoring.

An IBC is an industrial tank designed for storing and transporting food, chemical or petroleum liquids. It is stackable, resistant and widely used for its logistical practicality. The standard capacity is 1,000 liters, but 300, 600 or 1,250-liter sizes are also available. The choice of an IBC depends on a number of criteria: the type of fluid to be stored, the conditions of use (indoor, outdoor, temperature), and the material used (HDPE plastic, steel, stainless steel). These factors also influence the choice of sensor technology to be integrated for monitoring.

An IBC monitoring solution is based on connected sensors installed directly on the tanks. These sensors measure the level of liquids (water, fuel oil, chemicals, etc.) and transmit the data remotely using IoT technologies such as LoRa, Sigfox, NB-IoT or GSM. The information gathered is then accessible on an intuitive platform, enabling regular monitoring, detailed analysis and the sending of automatic alerts in the event of abnormal variations or critical thresholds being reached. The aim is to automate monitoring, optimize replenishment and reduce the risk of stock-outs.

Several factors need to be taken into account when choosing a suitable monitoring solution: the nature of the fluid stored (water, hydrocarbons, chemicals, etc.), the type and configuration of the tanks (opaque, buried, metal or plastic), and the connectivity available on site. Sensors can operate by ultrasound, pressure or flowmeter, depending on requirements. A good solution must offer an intuitive platform for centralizing data, sending alerts and enabling simple, reliable monitoring.
