SatSentinel — Safety Without Limits

Future release — Fuel Monitoring

In development

SatSentinel Fuel Monitoring

Metered bowser visibility and fuel-event reporting beyond cellular coverage.

Positioning

What it's being designed for

Primarily aimed at mobile fuel tanks and fuel bowsers serving mines, farms, construction sites, generators, vehicles and remote equipment. Fuel Monitoring combines a monitored fuel cap, a digital pulse-output flowmeter, GNSS position and a SatSentinel edge device — delivering fuel events via satellite into cloud dashboards, rules and reports.

Potential planned capabilities

  • Bowser identity
  • GNSS location
  • Date and time of transaction
  • Operator identity
  • Dispense start and stop events
  • Pulse-derived litres dispensed
  • Cumulative meter reading
  • Fuel-cap state and tamper flag
  • Device and battery health
  • Satellite transmission status
  • Exception flags for review

Planned solution concept

One combined field-to-cloud fuel workflow

Field hardware (planned)

  • A BLE-enabled monitored fuel cap or cap sensor
  • A digital pulse-output flowmeter
  • A SatSentinel edge / communications device
  • GNSS position and timestamp
  • Satellite uplink to SatSentinel Cloud

Cloud (planned)

  • Bowser and asset dashboards
  • Rules and exception alerts
  • Transaction and reconciliation reports
  • API export to ERP or fuel systems
  • Historical event and audit views

Flowmeter reference

OGM-40 Pulsar as an integration reference

The planned solution is being designed around a digital pulse-output flowmeter, with the OGM-40 Pulsar currently serving as a reference device for integration evaluation.

Nominal flow range
25–250 L/min
Stated accuracy
±0.5%
Pulse options
Reed or Hall switch
Connection
1.5" BSP female
Enclosure
Outdoor / weather-resistant

Reference specifications are those published by the flowmeter supplier. SatSentinel and Fluxcon do not manufacture the OGM-40 and do not imply an endorsement, reseller relationship or exclusive integration.

Planned alerts

Exception-led rather than raw telemetry

Unauthorised cap opening
Dispense outside an approved time
Dispense outside an approved location
Unexpected flow
Missing asset identification
Excessive transaction volume
Interrupted transaction
Meter or device fault
Communications backlog
Variance requiring review

Important qualifications

  • The planned solution is being designed around a digital pulse-output flowmeter, with the OGM-40 currently serving as a reference device for integration evaluation. This is not a partnership, endorsement or reseller claim.
  • The exact BLE-cap make, model and functions are to be confirmed. Cap events such as open, closed, tamper, unexpected access and battery condition are treated as intended functions until validated.
  • Neither SatSentinel nor Fluxcon manufactures the OGM-40. Supplier pricing is not reproduced.
  • Features, hardware and integrations remain subject to technical validation and final system design.
