PRIVOXSensors built into your team’s communication and processes
Temperature, water, doors, motion, pumps and smoke. Every sensor gets its own limits and its own people. The alarm reaches the right radio, phone and console, someone accepts it, and it closes when the sensor is back to normal.
How a sensor reaches your team
01Sensor
On a battery, no cables. Sends readings every few minutes, and at once when something changes.
02Gateway on site
One box hears every sensor on the site: buildings, yards, cellars. It goes online over your internet line or its own SIM card.
03PRIVOX
Each sensor has its own limits and its own group. The alarm is raised once, when a limit is crossed. A silent sensor is an alarm too.
04Your team
Radios and phones of the group ring, even a sleeping phone. The office console opens an incident to accept. A manager can also get it in Telegram.
- No Wi-Fi needed on site
Sensors reach the gateway by radio over long distances, through walls and into cellars.
- Sensors you already have
LoRaWAN sensors from other makers, Wi-Fi sensors, or alarms from your controllers via webhook, e-mail or MQTT.
- Your server or ours
Readings and alarms stay on a PRIVOX server, in our cloud or on your premises.
Choose your industry and set off a sensor
Pick an industry, then one of its sensors. You will see what goes wrong, how the alarm reaches the console and the radio, who accepts it and when it is closed.

Sensors we connect
Industrial LoRaWAN sensors in sealed housings, on batteries. Each one gets its own limits and the people it alerts.
Door and gate contact
- Watches
- Open or closed, how long it stays open, how often it opens
- Alarm
- Open longer than 10 minutes → the shift on duty
Water level
- Watches
- Level in a tank or trough, measured from above
- Alarm
- Below 25 % → the technician
Temperature and humidity
- Watches
- Air temperature and humidity
- Alarm
- Above 28 °C → the engineer on call
Temperature probe
- Watches
- Temperature inside a tank, a cold room or a grain heap, through a steel probe on a cable
- Alarm
- Above 6 °C → the person on duty, at night too
Leak and flood
- Watches
- Water on the floor, at one spot or along a cable around the room
- Alarm
- Water on the floor → the plumber on call
Current clamp
- Watches
- Whether a machine draws power: running, stopped, power cut
- Alarm
- Pump stopped for 5 minutes → the technician
Motion
- Watches
- Movement of people or animals, and the light level
- Alarm
- Movement in a locked building → the guard on duty
Smoke
- Watches
- Smoke in the room
- Alarm
- Smoke → every radio and phone on the site
Questions
Do we need Wi-Fi where the sensors are?
No. Sensors send their readings by radio to one gateway on site. The gateway goes online through your internet line or its own SIM card.
Can you connect the sensors we already have?
Usually, yes. Standard LoRaWAN sensors connect through the gateway; controllers and loggers can send alarms by webhook, e-mail or MQTT. Tell us what is installed and we will check.
Who gets the alarm at night?
The group you choose for each sensor: the person on call, the shift lead, the manager. Phones ring even when asleep, and the console shows whether someone has accepted.
What if a sensor stops sending?
Silence is an alarm too. If a sensor has not reported for longer than expected, its group is told, so a flat battery is found before it matters.
How do we start?
With one site and a few sensors. We choose them with you, install the gateway, set the limits and groups, and run it with your team.
Start with one real site
We set PRIVOX up on one of your sites — with your people, your channels and your sensors — and agree up front what a good result looks like.
- A 20-minute call
We go through your sites, shifts and the alarms that matter most.
- A live demo on your devices
Phones, radios and the console — on your site or remotely.
- A pilot on one site
Your shift works on PRIVOX. Together we measure how fast alarms reach people and get an answer.
