Rugged and Ready: Relio R1 Beats the Heat in Fracking

In fracking operations, a fleet of trucks carries equipment, including computers that are the brains of their work. A Sealevel customer asked for a standardized computing solution that would meet their specifications, which are more stringent than MIL-STD-810. The computer had to be affordable, as they would be equipping their entire fleet.

Powering Energy Efficiency: IIoT Solar Panel Solutions

An amusement park that prioritizes sustainability contracted a renewable energy group to install a solar power system. The group roof-mounted the panels throughout the park and ground-mounted them in one lot outside the park. The energy group wanted an IIoT solution to gather reliability data on their panels’ electricity production and relay commands for cloudy days for operational optimization. The solution also needed to allow remote access and monitoring, regardless of conditions.

Integrative Control: Applying IIoT Technology to Sensor Systems

A company that manufactures controls for liquid level detection and pump system management reached out to Sealevel. They wanted to incorporate remote access, data recording and user alerts into their stock sensor-based control systems designed for agro-innovation, conservation and commercial environmental applications. One of their clients carries out expansive landscaping operations at multiple residential sites. The control technology company specifically wanted to automate their water control system.

Automation: Mitigating Risks Through Manufacturing Monitoring

A Sealevel customer specializes in petrochemical manufacturing. They found that employees, when working with machinery, often used their instincts rather than depending on reliable data. Unintentionally, they created risk of process manufacturing failure, contributing to machine damage. Our client approached us seeking a solution that would remove human interference and improve preventative maintenance procedures.

Agriculture Automation: Smart Farming with IIoT Technology

A major US city tasked a farming cooperative with ending a regional food desert, which is an area lacking access to groceries and fresh produce. The co-op built multiple “urban farms” using a hydroponic system, and the farms needed to minimize water usage based on water consumption regulations. Since the project was grant-funded, it had a tight budget.

Pool Management: Waving Goodbye to Inefficient Maintenance Systems

Sealevel connected with a large beach resort neighborhood with multiple, varied pool sites. Facilities managers wanted to implement a system that diminished poolside check-ups, stopped extraneous water testing, saved resources and contributed to preventative maintenance. Sealevel SeaConnect hardware and SeaCloud software created a smart pool network that works around the clock in all conditions.

Wastewater Treatment: Testing the Waters with the SeaConnect 370

Heavily regulated by the EPA, wastewater treatment facility managers must record data, including pump performance, pressure and flow – and adjust as needed. The remote locations of treatment plants often make regular travel resource and time intensive. The Sealevel team created a solution that reduces the number of visits while ensuring vital data is continually available. The end results? Increased efficiency, intelligence and performance.

Portable Tester for Automotive Manufacturing

A leading supplier to the automotive manufacturing industry was planning a next generation portable device that provides a variety of testing and programming functions on the assembly line. Sealevel quickly became more deeply involved with the project, designing and manufacturing five other PCBs, carrying out final assembly, testing, and drop shipping to end customers worldwide.

PCIe Mini Card Synchronous Serial Interface

Connecting modern computer equipment to proprietary, often old, infrastructure is a common requirement in military applications. For example, Sealevel was contacted by the manufacturer of a rugged, military computer server to design an interface to radio modems installed in aircraft.

911 Dispatch Console Computer

A leading supplier of communication systems for first responders contacted Sealevel to redesign the 911 dispatch computer used for secure voice to IP communications. An important goal of the new system was to handle the processing and I/O required by their application without the obsolescence issues inherent with their previous “white box” servers and off-the-shelf PCI bus audio cards.
