making;
• provide more efficient tasking of the Pumper;
• enhance revenue through optimized well performance and reduced
downtime.
The Intelligent Wireless Sensor Suite
Luna iMonitoring’s Intelligent Wireless Sensor Suite includes sensors, computers,
software, and communication devices to collect and transmit data in a variety of
industries and applications. The iMonitoring “smart” sensors use local processing
to minimize power consumption and communication bandwidth. Intelligent
software collects, processes, and stores the data in an information database. The
iMonitoring system uses RF, cellular, Internet, and satellite links to transmit data
between sensors, data collection sites, and central computers. For more
