| In order to guarantee the nutrition of animals and an optimal purchasing planning, farmers need to monitor the level of food continuously. Often, however, silos and farms are widely spread, so measuring the level manually is too costly and time consuming. |

As a wired solution was not an option ELION, SA from Spain was looking for its customer for a possibility to measure the level of food silos wirelessly. The solution should be flexible, reliable and resistant to harsh environmental conditions.
E-Senza's product line is an ideal answer to manage the food stocks at optimum level. |

E-Senza's SenzaBlocks were connected over an analog interface to the existing measurement sensors. The food level is measured several times a day and all collected information is send over a self-organizing wireless network to a SenzaGate gateway. SenzaGate initiates a TCP/IP connection via GPRS to a central server, where information is processed.

The monitoring software SenzaWMS stores the gathered data and provides visualization in real-time and alarming functions. Multiple wireless networks operating in different locations can be managed remotely from one single server, from which the status of each individual sensor or adapter is visible and can be reconfigured.
The system provides an overview of the food level of all silos. The whole network is flexible and extendable, if new measuring points are required. SenzaBlocks are suitable for use in outdoor environment. The unique reliability of E-Senza's products ensures that animals never run low on food.
