IMT introduces ‘solar-powered breakthrough in tank telematics’


The new solar-powered Communication and Location Terminal (CLT20-Ex) is the latest in a series of innovations from Intermodal Telematics (IMT). It said of the launch: “IMT continues to innovate to offer customers the most suitable telematics solutions in the rapidly evolving tank container telematics sector.”

Dethmer Drenth, IMT Managing Director and Founder, said: “With the CLT20-Ex, IMT brings unlimited wireless data transfer to tank telematics, allowing for optimal accuracy.” 

IMT added that this innovation “promises to be a real gamechanger”, as it takes the monitoring of the safety and quality of the logistics process to a whole new level. 

The CLT20-Ex monitors a tank container’s geographical location, its motion (shock and normal movement) and the temperature of the device. It’s solar powered, enabling unlimited data transfer and long-lasting operational reliability on tank containers, wagons and other assets that do not have their own power source.

Additionally, the CLT20-Ex also serves as a central hub for all IMT sensors installed on a tank container. The measured values from these sensors are sent wirelessly to the CLT20-Ex. An overview of all the collected data, (like location, temperature, pressure, liquid level, liquid residue, and heating temperature) can then easily be accessed remotely by using IMT’s web application.

Drenth concluded: “With our dedicated team of hardware and software engineers we’ve created this innovative fully-fledged telematics solution to offer valuable and very accurate information for our customers.”
