The best way to enhance safety in vehicles with the SatSENS family
Observation and location of objects and vehicles is the basis of all security and telematics systems. Innovative sensors in the object which reliably monitor and evaluate situations are crucial for optimal security.
Thus, for us, the sensors area is the most important component of our all-encompassing security concept. That is why we have been developing innovative sensors for every type of advanced data acquisition for more than 25 years.
We offer a variety of solutions with the SatSENS family. From tank monitoring against diesel theft to vehicle and load monitoring via special, predictive and intelligent sensors.
For optimum driver safety
Call for help with just the push of a button
To call for help in the event of a break-in in the driver’s cab, we offer our SatSENS.alert, an inconspicuous alarm button that can be easily installed in the dashboard. The button has a clear pressure point and also indicates the activation of the signal visually via the built-in LED.
The button and the illumination color are available in three colors: red, yellow and green.
Alarm in the event of gas ingress to protect people
Not only in the transportation of valuable goods, but also in the private sector, e.g., camping, assaults and robberies often begin with drivers/occupants being stunned by commercial gases.
We developed the SatSENS.gas with its acoustic alarm not only to prevent these dangerous robberies, but also to warn those affected.
The focus of this product is clearly on alerting people who are in the vicinity of the sensor. This is achieved by the fact that the sound signal in the event of an alarm has an appropriate volume to wake up sleeping people. The product has been designed so that it can sound the alarm independently and without other components. As a build-up of gas is normal in some situations, e.g., when cooking, the system has a switch to deactivate the function.
All-in-one solution for driver safety
With the help of SatSENS.burglar, you can monitor the interior of the driver’s cab of your tractor unit to protect against break-ins and theft. In contrast to standard vehicle alarm systems, SatSENS.burglar works independently of the vehicle electronics and can be retrofitted to any vehicle. In the event of an alarm, the SatSENS.burglar activates a siren in the vehicle and sends an alarm message to the monitoring center via the SatMOS® telematics unit.
For optimum cargo safety
Professional sensor technology to monitor large interior spaces
SatSENS.4d is mainly used to monitor large spaces such as the inside of a trailer or container.
Thanks to the independent sensors for light and movement, it is possible to react precisely and reliably at all times and evaluate both values independently. The strength of the module also lies in the almost 360° panoramic view.
Tank sensor for diesel theft control
Fuel theft is increasing from year to year, especially for trucks that are on the road a lot and construction machinery that is often parked in remote areas. It is not always the loss of fuel that leads to a loss of revenue, but rather the associated breakdown of the machine, as it first has to be refueled or cannot be used immediately. The associated environmental impact and additional driving distances should also not be underestimated. The loss of diesel becomes particularly tricky with a cooling unit. If the refrigeration unit can no longer work, the goods spoil. Our solution is the combination of SatMOS®.frigo 
and SatSENS.fuel.
The SatSENS.fuel was therefore specially developed to monitor the fill level of fuel tanks in order to detect and report such situations. Thanks to the very precise measurement in the millimeter range, even small losses can be detected.
Furthermore, particular attention was paid to the ease of installation of the sensor. Installation is therefore only carried out by gluing it to the bottom of the tank, no drilling or modifications to the tank are necessary. This also makes installation quick and inexpensive and still ensures maximum safety.
Acoustic alarm in case of intrusion
SatSENS.siren is an acoustic signaling device with a two-tone alarm. Thanks to its low power consumption and IP65 protection class, SatSENS.siren can be used indoors and outdoors in many areas.
“Smoke alarms save lives!”
This applies not only to use in private households and offices, but also in mobile vehicles such as motorhomes or trucks. After all, a fire or other dangerous smoke development can happen anywhere and at any time, so it’s good to have a detector. The smoke detector not only reports the alarm visually and acoustically, but also has a digital output to inform a telematics unit, for example, about the situation and request help remotely.
No access for unauthorized persons
We offer you the SatSENS.door for detecting the status of doors and roller shutters (open / closed). This sensor impresses with its high level of tamper protection, reliability and precise status analysis.
For temperature monitoring in trailers
The SatSENS.temp is characterized by a high degree of tamper resistance and reliability, as well as accuracy in the analysis of the condition. Up to 9 temperature sensors can be connected and analyzed via the adapter board.
Detection of breakthroughs in side walls and roofs of trailers
SatSENS.loop is a specially developed plate set with integrated loop cables for detecting intrusions through side walls or roofs.
Extension of your safety solution
Der SatIO-2 is a logic controller with a large number of digital inputs and outputs, as well as serial communication interfaces. It also has a built-in data memory on exchangeable MicroSD cards. This data can also be made available to the customer so that he can take further measures.
The OEM version of the system is particularly popular for use with third-party positioning systems in conjunction with sensors from the SatSENS family.
All the sensors mentioned can be connected directly to the SatMARS locating systems or made usable for third-party providers using our SatIO-2 logic module.
