Industrial IoT Sensors for Smart Buildings, Energy Insights, and Remote Monitoring

SRB Controls provides a curated portfolio of industrial-grade Internet of Things (IoT) sensors designed for real-time monitoring of environmental conditions, occupancy, equipment performance, leak detection, and process signals. Our devices use LoRaWAN, MQTT, HTTPS, and low-power wireless technologies to deliver reliable data across manufacturing facilities, commercial buildings, institutions, campuses, and remote sites. With long battery life, robust enclosures, and seamless integration into platforms like MeterConnex and the Truety Portal, these sensors support scalable, low-cost digital transformation projects across Canada.

IoT Sensors

Whether you’re modernizing an older facility or deploying sensors in a new build, SRB gives you validated hardware, engineering support, and installation services to ensure your IoT system is deployed correctly from day one.

Frequently Asked Questions About Level Measurement

What communication protocols do these IoT sensors use?

Most devices operate on LoRaWAN, while others support PoE, MQTT(s), HTTP(s), RS485, WiFi AP mode, or device-to-device automation. This allows flexible integration with BAS, SCADA, EMS, and MeterConnex.

How far can these sensors transmit data?

LoRaWAN devices typically reach hundreds of meters indoors and several kilometers outdoors, depending on building density and gateway placement. PoE devices like the VS125 rely on Ethernet or cellular for reliable, low-latency communication.

Do the sensors require wiring?

Some devices are battery-powered, such as the WS303 leak sensor which operates up to 5.7 years on a CR2450 battery. Others are PoE-powered (VS125 people counter) for high throughput, or PoE + cellular for network redundancy.

Are the devices suitable for harsh or industrial environments?

Yes. Many sensors have IP67 or IP65 enclosures, wide temperature tolerance, and vibration-resistant housings. The WS303 leak sensor offers IP67 protection for wet environments

What kinds of data can these IoT sensors capture?

Depending on the model: IoT sensors from SRB can capture data for: Occupancy & foot traffic analytics, Temperature, humidity, CO2, TVOC, PM2.5, Water leak detection, Distance & liquid level, Vibration, motion, equipment monitoring, Analog & digital input signals, Current/energy (if using CT-based IoT modules).
