APPLICATIONS

KEY FEATURES

DESCRIPTION

• 6LoWPAN (IEEE802.15.4, 2.4GHz, 868MHz)

• Based on Silicon Lab’s industry-leading low-power wireless mesh protocols (Thread)

• Interoperable with other commerciallyavailable Zigbee systems

• Each device has its own IPv6 addressing andsecurity is provided by AES 128bit encryption

CLOUD & EDGE CONNECTIVITY

• Air Quality Monitoring in Harsh Industrial Sites

• Hyper-local AQM for Smart Cities

• Indoor Air Conditioners and Air Purifiers

The LiPAPS Particulate Matter (PM) sensor uses

optical-based technology and advanced sensor

fusion algorithms to sense and count fine particles

in the air. When particles travel through the air

chamber, a light source illuminates them and

records the resulting optical scatter on a photo-

electric detector array. Different types of optical

scattering occur due to diffraction, refraction,

and variations in shape and size of the particles

obstructing the beam. Detected particles and

their concentration are

analysed in real- time by

the device and readings

are transported via the

Vortex Mesh Network to Edge Gateways for

transmission to the required

endpoints. LiPAPS

offers continuous real-time, particulate monitoring

Vortex IoT Edge Architecture

• Designed for high Ingress Protection rating

IP66, where the electronic circuit housing is

dust tight and protected against water.

• The particulate sensors have conformal

coating and no element is exposed to harsh environmental conditions.

• The sensor particle counter is based on

light scattering and is fully glass sealed with

no exposure of the internal mechanism to the atmosphere.

• Air tunnels and manifolds are protected by servo- actuated shutters reducing their exposure time to seconds for each measurement.

INTEROPERABILITY

• 6LoWPAN compliant with physical layer level and MAC satisfying IEEE 802.15.4 standard.

• Uses the MQTT standard (ISO/IEC PRF 20922) for establishing connection in bandwidth-limited networks.

• Sensor devices from other vendors that comply with Thread, 6LoWPAN and IEEE802.15.4 will able to join and establish connectivity with our Vortex Mesh NetworkTM

allowing it to act as a backbone infrastructure for carrying the data generated by 3rd party sensors.

• Supports Internet Protocol IPv6 and is interoperable with devices that support internet protocol providing transparent network connectivity between nodes.
