[IT Agriculture | Environmental Monitoring Measures] Remote Monitoring and Control Device 'Momoko to Ayaka'

ISA Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as ISA) (Shinjuku, Tokyo, President: Koji Yanagihara) has developed an "Integrated Management System for Reduction Firing" that accurately measures the concentration of carbon monoxide (CO) and firing temperature in the firing kiln during ceramic reduction firing, and displays data and graphs in real-time. Orders will begin on April 30, 2025. <Patent pending> Invention name: Reduction Firing Management System Product site: https://isa-j.co.jp/momoaya/product/wd300/ ● High-precision measurement of CO concentration in reduction firing (0.000–10.000 vol%) ● Supports simultaneous measurement with 2 thermocouples (up to 1768°C) ● Compatible with both local and cloud data storage and verification ● Visualizes the effects of gas pressure, hydraulic adjustments, and damper opening and closing ● Links flame color and the state of Seger cones with CO concentration and cumulative values ● Contributes to labor-saving, energy-saving, and productivity improvement in ceramics and industrial ceramics

We have newly added the product "LoRa-compatible pulse counting function equipped digital input/output device 'WD100-GWPIO'" for the measurement and instrumentation field, and sales began on July 15th. It measures pulses output from flow meters, gas meters, and other devices such as flow meters, electric meters, and pressure gauges, monitoring both "cumulative values and instantaneous values." When a preset threshold is exceeded, it not only notifies alarms through abnormal displays or emails but also controls devices via digital signals. The data communication between the child and parent devices has numerous achievements in other fields, and by adopting LoRa communication, a representative technology of LPWA, stable communication is possible even from distances measured in kilometers. Applications in various fields such as production, process management, and inspection are expected.

SMART-View is a subsystem designed for visualizing and analyzing measurement data from our currently available 'WD100 Series (LoRa Environmental Data Measurement System)' while continuously saving the data. It consists of a high-speed NAS device with SSDs and software, enabling easy data utilization on-premises without going through the cloud. SMART-View is packaged as a product set that includes software, NAS, and a hub, allowing you to start using it immediately after purchase (a separate maintenance contract is required). The software interface prioritizes visibility and ease of use, so anyone can easily start data collection and monitoring with a PC or smartphone!

In food hygiene management and environmental monitoring, the importance of temperature and humidity monitoring is increasing from the perspective of managing refrigerators, freezers, and human-operated work environments within facilities, as well as preventive maintenance of equipment. In June 2018, an amendment to the Food Sanitation Act was passed in the National Diet, requiring the introduction of HACCP as a system to provide consistent "food safety and security" from producers to consumers for all food-related businesses as a principle. Momoko and Ayaka do not require specific installation locations as they are 10-year battery-operated temperature and humidity measurement units. They can easily start measuring by simply being installed in the necessary measurement locations. Additionally, a communication server that collects data and establishes communication with higher-level management systems uses LoRa wireless technology. Utilizing general-purpose sensors, advanced wireless technology, and our core technologies of network compatibility and power management, we contribute to the sequential monitoring of temperature and humidity in facilities and critical management items with high flexibility and cost performance. Please utilize Momoko and Ayaka to prevent foodborne illnesses through thorough temperature management!
