Environmental change losses measured in hours
Summer heat stress, winter heating failure, ventilation faults can cause mass stress or mortality within just a few hours.

Aquaculture IoT Monitoring System
Shed temperature, humidity & ammonia online monitoring — instant alert on environmental sudden changes
Solution Overview
Real-time monitoring of shed temperature, humidity, and environmental parameters. Abnormalities trigger automatic alerts. Remote environmental oversight to reduce livestock losses from sudden environmental changes.
Poultry sheds and hatcheriesSwine housingAquaculture and greenhouseFeed and storage areasMulti-shed contract farming operations
Problems Solved
Too many sheds to patrol across multiple sites
When contracting multiple sheds or across different farm zones, manual patrol frequency cannot be guaranteed — night shifts especially weak.
Gas over-limit judged by nose
Ammonia and hydrogen sulfide concentration judged by feel — chronic low-level over-limit damage to growth performance goes undetected.

Alert MethodFixed threshold alerts: only fire at limit crossings, blind to slow degradation. A single fault floods dozens of useless alerts, burying real risks.AI time-series anomaly detection: learns each device's baseline, catches slow drift and hidden anomalies. 80% fewer false alarms, alerts routed to the right people.
Notification & ClosurePhone calls/group chat: alerts dumped in chat, who handles what? Night alerts buried, discovered next day.WeCom/SMS graded push + work order automation: graded, person-specific routing. Unacknowledged alerts auto-escalate. Full traceability: alert → work order → resolution → archive.
Integration & RetrofittingCostly retrofit & downtime: new monitoring needs rewiring, equipment swap, production stoppage — long cycle, lost output.Reuse existing sensors, plug & go live: compatible with 95% DTUs/sensors. MQTT/Modbus standard protocols. No production line changes — 30-minute data integration.
Data ValueReal-time only, no history: manual logs capture instant values only — no trend visibility, can't replay fault evolution.Time-series database + history replay: massive long-term storage, any-range curve playback with work order records to reconstruct full fault picture and continuously improve O&M strategy.
Key Features
Multi-point shed environmental monitoring
Per-shed collection of temperature, humidity, ammonia, etc., with separate points in ventilation dead zones.
24/7 uninterrupted reporting
Reporting frequency configurable from seconds to minutes; night shift increases alert push intensity.
Rapid alert on sudden environmental changes
Over-limit, sudden change, and device offline — three conditions instantly pushed to breeder and farm manager.
Growth-stage-specific thresholds
Set different comfort-zone thresholds per day-age/growth stage to avoid one-size-fits-all limits.
Environmental control records archived
Auto-generate environmental record curves for reviewing periods of high mortality or abnormal feed conversion ratio.
Data Collection & Alerting Specs
Collected Data
- Shed temperature, humidity
- Ammonia and other gas concentrations
- Ventilation/heating equipment operational status (per field signal)
- Device offline and low battery
Alert Types
- Temperature above/below limits
- Humidity exceeding limit
- Ammonia concentration exceeding limit
- Sudden temperature drop or spike
- Fan stoppage clue
- Acquisition device offline
Alerts pushed to Web dashboard and WeCom; SMS as optional add-on. Same-type alerts auto-merged for noise reduction.
Deployment & Billing
- Deployment
- Sensors + acquisition gateway wired in-shed. Network supports 4G upload, suitable for rural farm areas with unreliable broadband. No need to replace existing environmental control equipment.
- Billing
- Subscription by shed and point count, supports multi-shed unified account management per farm.
