Describe what you want to watch in plain English. Sentrel generates the schema and alert rules, connects to the PLCs and sensors you already own, and goes live the same day — no integrator, no rip-and-replace, no six-month project.
Monitor an industrial pump — RPM, pressure, vibration, online status. Alert if RPM > 3000, pressure > 150 PSI, vibration > 8 mm/s, or it goes offline.
Built for the field
Traditional SCADA and historian deployments need servers, networking, HMI development, and integration engineering before anyone sees a single reading. Sentrel collapses that into an afternoon.
Type “Monitor a pump: RPM, pressure, vibration, online status; alert if RPM > 3000.” Sentrel turns that sentence into a structured schema and live alert rules — no tag databases, scripting, or config files.
A lightweight edge connector reads legacy PLCs and sensors over Modbus and OPC-UA on a gateway you already own, then forwards over MQTT or HTTPS. No proprietary sensors, no manufacturer cooperation.
Every reading is stored with a tamper-evident integrity hash and a full audit trail. Role-based access and module-level permissions are built in — operators verify the data instead of trusting a black box.
Ingest, rules, alerting, dashboards, and governance ship working. Explore each capability:
Write the equipment, readings, and alert thresholds in plain English. Sentrel generates the data schema and alert rules for you to review.
Drop the lightweight edge connector on a gateway you already have. It reads your PLCs over Modbus or OPC-UA and forwards over MQTT or HTTPS with a scoped key.
Readings stream in, get validated, and the rule engine checks every one. Live dashboards and SCADA views populate — typically within an afternoon.
If it exposes a reading over Modbus or OPC-UA, Sentrel can watch it — from a single pump to a whole plant.
Sentrel runs on the gateways, PLCs, and protocols your team already trusts — so monitoring fits into the way you already work, the same afternoon you start.
Yes. Sentrel is vendor-neutral. A lightweight edge connector runs on a gateway you already own (Raspberry Pi, Teltonika, Advantech, Siemens) and reads your existing PLCs and sensors over Modbus and OPC-UA, then forwards over MQTT or HTTPS. No proprietary sensors, no manufacturer cooperation, and no rip-and-replace.
You describe what to monitor in a sentence — e.g. “Monitor a pump: RPM, pressure, vibration, online status; alert if RPM > 3000, pressure > 150 PSI, vibration > 8 mm/s, or it goes offline.” An LLM turns that into a typed data schema plus the alert rules. You review and adjust it, then it goes live. No coding, config files, or integrator.
Yes. Every reading is stored with a tamper-evident integrity hash, and all activity is captured in a full audit trail — a WORM-style record that supports data-integrity and 21 CFR Part 11 requirements. Access is governed by role-based permissions, and ingest is protected by scoped API and MQTT keys.
No. Sentrel is a hosted, turnkey SaaS. The broker, ingest, rule engine, dashboards, and alerting all work out of the box, so you can stand it up yourself and reach first value in an afternoon — instead of the six-to-eighteen-month, integrator-dependent path of a traditional SCADA deployment.
Ignition requires a qualified integrator and your own server; AVEVA PI is enterprise-only with opaque pricing; a Telegraf/InfluxDB/Grafana stack means you assemble, host, and maintain everything yourself with limited alerting. Sentrel is self-serve and hosted, sets up from a plain-English description, runs on hardware you already own, and ships with real-time alerting, RBAC, multi-tenant white-label, and a tamper-evident compliance layer included.
Any readings your equipment exposes — RPM, pressure, temperature, vibration, flow, online status and more — across pumps, utilities, process equipment, and machine tools. The rule engine evaluates your conditions on every reading and notifies you in real time via in-app toasts, webhooks, and email, with live dashboards, SCADA views, fault analysis, and reports on top.
Describe what you want to watch, connect the gateway you already own, and be live this afternoon — no integrator, no proprietary hardware, no six-month project.
