Direct-C’s advanced monitoring systems allow operators to monitor multiple assets remotely, in one centralized portal. IoT Edge™ devices autonomously monitor your sensors using proprietary algorithms and forward relevant data to Direct-C’s centralized dashboard, triggering alarm notifications to operators when action is needed.
IIoT systems are made up of many components that automate asset monitoring and leak detection. With unprecedented reliability and real-time data, Direct-C’s monitoring systems provide unparalleled advantages that disrupt traditional asset monitoring systems.

Direct-C’s Research & Development teams have applied the same leading approach from nanotechnology to other highly-sensitive sensors that can provide insights and alerts for produced water leaks, groundwater table levels, and more. Early detection of these conditions are a game-changer for operators to mitigate product loss and environmental impact.
Discover Multifunctional Sensor OptionsTanks, above-ground pipelines and wellheads are the most common deployments for the WrapSenseTM monitoring system. This system is designed with a flexible casing containing the monitoring sensors that wrap around the areas of interest. Below-ground pipelines and wellheads are the most common deployments for the SubSenseTM monitoring system. With this system, the sensor probes containing the IoT EdgeTM device are installed next to the asset at the areas of interest.
FlangeSenseTM is designed to deploy specifically for flanges used in operation, whereas BermSenseTM is designed specifically to monitor all assets contained within a berm.

Groundwater Table Sensors & Water Sensors
Water sensors are available as independent deployments, or most commonly as an addition to existing Direct-C installations. Not to be confused with produced water, these water sensors monitor the presence of water and are typically used in SubSenseTM installations for below-ground pipelines or BermSenseTM installations for berms.
Monitoring groundwater levels or water in general is especially critical for infrastructure with known corrosion, areas prone to flooding and mitigating product loss in general. Nanocomposite sensors are unable to detect liquid hydrocarbons when the sensors are fully submerged in water, therefore it can be essential to monitor water levels.
Temperature Monitoring Sensors
Similar to other sensors, temperature sensors can also be deployed independently or as an addition to existing Direct-C installations. Operators set their designated operating threshold and when the temperature drops below this threshold, alerts are sent to their dashboard instantly. This real-time data is especially critical for areas that sustain below-freezing temperatures for long periods of time as those conditions can often be inoperable for liquid hydrocarbons.
Installation Times
Each monitoring system can be installed and fully-commissioned within minutes. Depending on the asset and areas of interest, installation times will vary slightly.
Detection Times
All assets and products have the same detection times. Within seconds of exposure to the targeted product leak or environmental condition, real-time data is sent from the IoT EdgeTM device through cloud computing software and into your dashboard.
Power, Cables and Communication
Each system is fully mobile and battery-powered to operate for up to five years. There are no communication cables needed in installation. Cellular and satellite modems ensure communication from anywhere.
A low, one-time installation fee. Simple monthly payments with no hidden fees. Operators have the ability to simply add more assets or environmental conditions to monitor through their centralized portal. Be sure and order Direct-C.
