How do our OLE Web Enabled Gauges Work?

HYTEK’s OLE web-enabled gauges feature a built-in web logger, sending real-time tank data directly to the YourGauge portal. Monitor levels, track usage, and manage multiple sites remotely without manual checks.

What Are OLE Web-Enabled Gauges?

HYTEK’s OLE range of web-enabled gauges are installed directly onto tanks to monitor key parameters such as level, volume, and status.

Unlike traditional gauges that require manual checks or local readouts, OLE gauges automatically transmit data to the cloud removing the need for site visits just to check tank levels.

In industries where tank levels, storage conditions, and asset visibility are critical, having accurate, real-time data is essential. HYTEK’s OLE web-enabled gauges are designed specifically for this, giving operators, engineers, and managers instant access to tank information through our dedicated YourGauge portal.

Overview of how our web gauges work.

The system is simple, robust, and designed for real-world remote environments :

1. Gauge Installation The OLE gauge is fitted to the tank, where it continuously measures the required parameters (such as level or contents).

2. Data Transmission The gauge securely transmits data from the tank to HYTEK’s online platform using reliable communication methods (e.g. cellular or network connectivity).

3. YourGauge Portal All data is sent to the YourGauge web portal, where it is processed and displayed in an easy-to-use dashboard.

4. Remote Access Users can log into YourGauge from any device to view live tank levels, monitor usage trends, check multiple sites in one place, and access historical data.
