Augos Sense / HSE
Health, safety and environment monitoring
Monitor health, safety and the environment.
The conditions that keep your people safe and your site compliant. The hardware mix for this area is being finalised, so talk to us about your use case.
Augos Sense is wireless IoT sensing for South African sites: battery-powered sensors that measure temperature, humidity, air quality, level, flow, pressure and equipment state, one cloud platform that checks every reading against the limits you set and alerts on WhatsApp, email or SMS, and switches and valves that act on your rules.
Priced per sensor, plus connectivity and the platform, quoted ex VAT

The problem
Safety depends on conditions no one is watching.
Heat, gas, dust and noise all affect whether a site is safe to work in, but most of it is spot-checked, if at all. The gaps are where incidents happen.
1
Conditions drift unseen
Heat, gas and dust build up between checks, and the first sign is someone affected.
2
Incidents with no record
When something happens, there is no continuous record of the conditions around it.
3
Slow to respond
Nothing links a dangerous condition to an alert, so response waits on someone noticing.
4
Compliance by paperwork
Conditions logged by hand, hard to keep current and harder to trust.
The method
One sensor turns a blind spot into a live reading.
Put a sealed, battery-powered sensor on each condition you care about. It reports to one cloud platform, and Augos does the watching, so you only hear about it when something moves.
1
Measure it
A wireless sensor on each condition, reporting as often as every minute, on a battery, with no wiring to run.
2
Get told
Set the range that matters. The moment a reading passes it, you get a message on WhatsApp, email or SMS.
3
Act on it
Trigger an alarm or an extractor automatically when a condition crosses a safe limit, and alert the right person at once.
What we measure
The HSE parameters.
Each parameter is a separate sensor, so you deploy only the ones you need and add more anytime.
Heat stress
Wet bulb and temperature for worker safety.
In the knowledge base ›Gas exposure
Harmful gases where people work.
In the knowledge base ›Dust
Airborne dust and particulates.
In the knowledge base ›HSE draws on the same sensor family; the exact mix for this area is being finalised.
Use cases
Where sites put it to work.
Heat-stress monitoring
Wet bulb where people work, so you call a stop on live numbers.
Gas and confined spaces
Watch for harmful gas around confined and hazardous areas.
Dust and air quality
Track particulates where dust is generated.
Incident awareness
Continuous conditions, so a response starts the moment something crosses a limit.
The hardware

Start small
Start with a single sensor.
No rip-and-replace and no commitment: a single sensor can be live in 48 hours, and you add more once it proves out. Sensors mount magnetically, with no wiring to run and no calibration to perform.
Augos Sense is priced in three parts: the sensors, priced per sensor by what each one is built to measure; connectivity, a monthly cost per sensor; and the platform, one charge per deployment. Figures on request: we size a quote, ex VAT, to the sensors and sites you need.
Questions
How do the sensors connect?
Wirelessly, over LoRa, NB-IoT or Sigfox, chosen for the coverage and density of your site. There is no wiring to run.
How long do the batteries last?
Years, depending on the sensor and how often it reports: the temperature sensor runs up to about two years on a full charge, configuration dependent. Sensors report at intervals you set, from once a minute to a few times an hour, and need no mains and no cabling.
How fast can we install?
A single sensor can be live in 48 hours. Sensors mount magnetically, with no wiring and no calibration, so a site electrician or your own team can fit them without downtime. You add more sensors and sites the same way.
What can it alert on, and how?
Set an upper limit, a lower limit or a rate of change on any sensor. The moment one is passed, the right person gets a message on WhatsApp, email or SMS.
Where does the data go?
Into one cloud platform, hosted in South Africa. Watch it live, set alerts, chart it, or take it out as a download, by API or as an AI-ready export.
How are you priced?
Per sensor, plus connectivity monthly and the platform per deployment, quoted ex VAT. The single-sensor pilot is the standard way in.
