Watanabe Electric Industry Co. Ltd. Product Lineup

The IoT gateway "WGWB Series (Econo･DataChef)" is an IoT edge device that processes and handles various types of data. It enables the visualization and analysis of equipment monitoring and demand energy usage, regardless of whether it is operated in the cloud or on-premises. It supports management and analysis that help solve various challenges such as labor reduction, productivity improvement, and decarbonization. ■Modbus RTU register collection ■Built-in 920MHz wireless module

The LTE-M compatible energy measurement unit "WLM" series is ideal for monitoring the status of equipment and devices scattered across widely deployed locations and fields, as well as for building remote monitoring systems for various types of energy, including electricity. It is a groundbreaking IoT device that transmits data to the cloud via LTE-M communication and achieves approximately five years of battery operation. It offers a lineup of power pulse measurement units and CT measurement units, allowing us to make proposals tailored to customer needs.

Watanabe Electric Industry has consistently accumulated advanced technology and know-how in the development and manufacturing of electrical and electronic measuring instruments since its founding in 1940. Through manufacturing centered on measurement, we have steadily achieved improvements in our customers' on-site environments, enhanced convenience, and reduced implementation costs. Moving forward, we will continue to draw on the technology, know-how, and spirit we have cultivated to dedicate ourselves to manufacturing. 【Business Activities】 ■ Development and sales of measurement and control devices *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

We would like to introduce a case where a pump manufacturer implemented our predictive maintenance and fault location identification system for remote installation pumps. Previously, regular on-site inspections and reactive maintenance were conducted, but there were inefficiencies such as having to return without identifying fault locations before going on-site, or returning from regular inspections without any abnormalities. After implementation, we utilized a group of sensors, including "Mibunroku Cloud" and IoT gateways, to measure water levels and current values, and established a system that sends alarm emails when threshold anomalies occur, progressing towards reducing unnecessary on-site visits. 【Case Overview】 ■ Previous Specifications: Regular on-site inspections and visual checks, reactive maintenance ■ Challenges: Inefficiencies arose due to staff shortages ■ Solution: Implementation of a group of sensors such as "Mibunroku Cloud" and IoT gateways ■ Customer Feedback: The ability to collect diverse measurement data from a single company was highly valued *For more details, please feel free to contact us.
