WAVECONTROL MONITEM-IOT: EMF MONITORING IN SMART CITIES.

The emergence of Industry 4.0 essentially means an enhanced communications network capturing data from a range of elements throughout a built-up environment. All of these systems feed data to their own individual networks intended to capture user data to improve services and products. For cities, this can be 5g networks to connect phone users, LoRa networks relaying telemetry from share economy e-scooters, and other wireless protocols to enable commerce and infrastructure.

Key Takeaways:

• The Wavecontrol MonitEM-IoT enables teams to remotely monitor electromagnetic frequencies within built-up environments to ensure EMF safety of operational staff in these areas.
• The MonitEM-IoT is lightweight and versatile with an IP65-rated housing for outdoor applications.
• MonitEM-IoT uses 3-axis isotropic sensor RMS technology to monitor EMF ranging from low-frequency EMF up to 8GHz. 
• The Wavecontrol MonitEM-IoT system can feed data for remote monitoring for existing environmental monitoring or users can monitor via Wavecontrol's application (coming soon).

Industry 4.0: Connection & Low-Frequency EMF Risk at Scale.

All of these systems, emit an electromagnetic field within their locations, typically of no substantial risk to humans in close proximity for short times, however, as businesses and communities grow, these technologies have enabled low-frequency EMF to compound within built-up environments, effectively increasing commuters’ exposure time greatly.

To target this problem, the team at Wavecontrol have developed the MonitEM-IoT, a continuous EMF monitoring solution for built-up areas allowing EMF management to monitor around the clock, allowing for efficient response time to manage commuters and technicians’ exposure risks.

Seamless IoT Integration

Using LTE-M/NB-IoT communications, the MonitEM-IoT is enabled to integrate with smart city sensor management systems. This connectivity allows for real-time data transmission and remote monitoring, enabling responsiveness and efficiency of EMF management teams to respond quickly if exposure risk is becoming too high for occupants in these spaces.

Advanced Field Monitoring Capabilities

The MonitEM-IoT stands out with its ability to monitor a wide frequency range from low frequencies up to 8GHz, with its 3-axis isotropic sensor RMS diode technology. This extensive range ensures comprehensive EMF monitoring of any urban and industrial space.

The MonitEM-IoT devices are designed to withstand harsh environments with an IP65-rated housing, however are still compact and lightweight for effortless installation at vantage point locations. These systems can be powered by either battery or power over ethernet connections and can be set up with NFC communications partnered with smartphone applications.

Compliance and Safety

The MonitEM-IoT ensures compliance with international standards such as ITU-T K.83 and ICNIRP 2020. This compliance guarantees that the device meets stringent safety and performance criteria, providing peace of mind to OH&S officers and ensuring that technicians are working in environments that adhere to the highest safety standards. By continuously monitoring EMF levels, the MonitEM-IoT helps maintain safe exposure to EMF levels, protecting both field technicians and everyday local commuters.

Conclusion.

The Wavecontrol MonitEM IoT is a powerful tool for around-the-clock EMF monitoring, not just for built-up smart city environments, but also through other industries, such as defence, telecommunications, energy and industrial settings where large-scale IoT networks, wireless mesh and communications systems are utilised at scale.

The MonitEM-IoT is the next stage in electromagnetic field monitoring, allowing for highly accurate around-the-clock measurements, and enabling teams to monitor efficiently and respond quickly with remote monitoring.
