Industrial IoT for Chemicals
LoRaWAN sensors, gateways and dashboards for Chemicals & process — specified, stocked and supported by UK engineers.
Industrial IoT for Chemicals replaces manual rounds, spreadsheets and blind spots with live LoRaWAN telemetry: low-power sensors, resilient gateways and dashboards that flag a problem the hour it happens, not the week after. Indiott specifies, stocks and supports the full stack and ships across the UK from local warehouses.
The UK chemical industry turns over £65.5 billion, generates £21.8 billion in gross value added and employs 138,000 people, making it one of the country's top manufacturing export earners according to the Chemical Industries Association. Many sites sit under COMAH and handle flammable or toxic substances in ATEX classified zones. Robust, zone-aware monitoring of tanks, bunds and ventilation supports both the safety case and process efficiency.
Industrial IoT for Chemicals: sensors, gateways and dashboards
Built for Process and plant engineers, Safety, health and environment (SHE) managers, COMAH duty holders and site operators, Maintenance and reliability teams and Energy and utilities managers. Every asset that fails quietly — a pump, a chiller, a cold store, a plant room — is a candidate for a battery LoRaWAN sensor reporting to one dashboard. Typical Industrial IoT for Chemicals deployments include:
- Gas and vapour leak detection in ATEX classified zones
- Tank level, temperature and pressure monitoring across process areas
- Bund and interceptor level monitoring for spill containment
- Ventilation and differential pressure monitoring in reactor halls
- Energy and steam sub-metering across process plant
- Segmented industrial gateways linking process sensors to SCADA securely
LoRaWAN sensors and gateways for Chemicals & process
The Industrial IoT for Chemicals hardware below is UK-stocked and dispatched nationwide. Every device joins the same five-layer stack, so you can start with one gateway and a handful of sensors and scale without re-platforming.
EM500Outdoor environmental sensorRugged EM500 series for outdoor CO2, level, pressure and soil measurement.
TS101Insertion temperature sensorLoRaWAN insertion probe for pipe, tank and process temperature.
EM300Leak / contact / T+RH sensorCompact EM300 series for door, leak, temperature and humidity monitoring.
UR35Industrial cellular routerDual-SIM 4G/5G router for resilient connectivity at remote and mobile sites.
UG67Outdoor LoRaWAN gatewayIP67 outdoor gateway for site-wide coverage across yards, plants and campuses.
UG65Semi-industrial LoRaWAN gateway8-channel indoor gateway backhauling hundreds of LoRaWAN sensors over Ethernet, Wi-Fi or cellular.
Compliance and drivers in Chemicals & process
Higher-hazard sites are regulated under the Control of Major Accident Hazards (COMAH) Regulations 2015, enforced by the HSE and the environment agencies acting as the Competent Authority. Flammable and explosive atmospheres are controlled by DSEAR and the linked ATEX equipment rules, requiring hazardous area classification and suitably certified kit. Placing substances on the market is governed by UK REACH.
Indiott builds the monitoring and evidence layer around those duties: continuous data, threshold alarms that reach the duty engineer by SMS, and timestamped records you can hand to an auditor.

Why Chemicals & process teams choose Indiott
Here is why chemicals & process operators pick Indiott as their Industrial IoT for Chemicals partner rather than a generic reseller.
UK stock, UK delivery
Milesight, Atop and AquaIoT hardware supplied from the UK, typically dispatched within 14 working days nationwide.
Engineer-led, not box-shifting
An engineer scopes every enquiry and returns a costed bill of materials within one working day.
One stack, many brands
Interoperable sense, connect, secure, control and manage layers, so you are never locked to a single vendor.
Bespoke when off-the-shelf ends
When the device you need does not exist, we design and build it — firmware, enclosure and integration.
Industrial IoT for Chemicals: frequently asked questions
Can you monitor inside ATEX classified zones?
Monitoring in zoned areas needs suitably certified equipment; we specify intrinsically safe or zone-appropriate devices for the classification and keep standard LoRaWAN kit in safe areas.
How does this support our COMAH safety case?
Continuous tank level, bund, pressure and ventilation data provides the evidence and early warning a COMAH safety case relies on, and integrates with your existing alarms.
Will it connect to our SCADA or DCS?
Yes. Gateways bridge LoRaWAN sensors to SCADA, historians or DCS over standard protocols, adding hard-to-cable measurement points without disturbing the control system.
