Partner webinar: Data acquisition with Harvy2 the LoRaWAN current sensor

The Harvy2 is a wireless, next-generation LoRaWAN current sensor for monitoring electrical currents and energy flows. This battery-free sensor can be used across all levels of power distribution and provides completely application- and industry-independent energy monitoring. A typical application is detailed analysis of power consumption in HVAC systems, optionally in combination with indoor air quality sensors.

Heating, ventilation, and cooling - which account for 30–50% of electricity use in many large buildings, are often key to successful energy management, as they offer particularly high savings potential. We will show how easily energy monitoring can be implemented - safely and reliably with LoRaWAN and the Harvy2 current sensor, from installation to visualisation.

Target group:

CEOs, executives, and staff from property and facility management, building managers, technical facility management, operators of large building complexes, facility managers, technical service providers, as well as network operators, municipal utilities, and industrial companies.

No more data chaos:

Using IoT data effectively: Digitalisation is about more than just having data - it’s about creating value from it. A consistent and uniform data basis allows savings potential to be identified, processes monitored, productivity increased, and operations automated. In the fast-changing energy sector, this is especially important for energy consumption, as energy management is relevant across all industries.

The goal is always to optimise energy efficiency of buildings, systems, and processes, reduce energy costs, and manage energy crises. Whether in building management, industry, or smart cities, the Harvy2 IoT sensor is ideal for wireless data collection from main and sub-distribution boards, widely distributed systems, and other metering points. Its easy installation, compact design, and maintenance-free operation make it perfect for hard-to-reach locations. It measures and analyses power consumption, detecting peak and base loads with exceptional accuracy, and supports predictive maintenance through automated anomaly detection.

Typical applications:

• Total energy supply monitoring for factories, buildings, data centres, etc.
• Sub-metering for machines, floors, PV systems, etc.
• Meeting ESG requirements for property operators and branch networks
• Wireless digitisation of industrial 4–20mA DC signals

Webinar content:

This partner webinar with m2m provides an overview of LoRa/LoRaWAN® technology and its capabilities. Real-world use cases will demonstrate the benefits of continuous energy monitoring and how retrofitting existing systems is simple.

With the Harvy2, we will show how easily energy monitoring can be implemented. The Harvy2 is compact, self-powered (battery-free), and maintenance-free. Once installed, it operates autonomously. We will explain how the sensor works, how it can be configured, and provide a live demonstration of the dashboard.

Agenda:

• Welcome and introduction to deZem/m2m Germany
• Introduction LoRaWAN
  1. LoRa/LoRaWAN overview
  2. Network setup
