IoT-Based DG Monitoring Solutions

Smart Diesel Generator Monitoring for Smarter Facilities

In today’s power-sensitive industrial and commercial environments, Diesel Generators (DGs) play a vital role as backup energy sources. They ensure uninterrupted operations during grid failures or load-shedding, making them indispensable in manufacturing plants, IT parks, hospitals, residential complexes, and more. However, without proper monitoring, DGs can become inefficient, costly to maintain, and prone to misuse.

At SIOTA Technologies, we offer intelligent, IoT-powered DG Monitoring Solutions that transform traditional diesel generator setups into connected, efficient, and secure power assets. Our solutions help industries and facilities achieve greater visibility, reduce operational costs, and ensure DG reliability with real-time insights and automation.

Whether you manage a single generator or a distributed fleet across multiple locations, our solution provides a unified platform to track performance, prevent fuel theft, reduce maintenance costs, and ensure 24/7 power readiness.

What is a DG (Diesel Generator) and Why It Matters?

A Diesel Generator (DG) is a generator used to produce electricity. In industrial and commercial sectors, DGs are essential for emergency power backup, ensuring business continuity during outages or power fluctuations. From maintaining production lines to preserving data center uptime or running critical systems in hospitals, DGs act as the first line of defense against power failures. However, manual monitoring of DGs is inefficient, error-prone, and often leads to avoidable fuel losses, operational delays, or equipment failures—which is where IoT-enabled monitoring becomes a game-changer.

Key Features of Our DG Monitoring System

Real-Time Remote Monitoring

Continuously monitor fuel level, run hours, load percentage, engine temperature, oil pressure, battery status, coolant level, and voltage output via a cloud-based dashboard accessible from any device.

Fuel Theft & Leakage Detection

Receive instant alerts for sudden fuel drops, unauthorized refueling, or leaks. Our AI-enabled anomaly detection ensures that every litre is accounted for—reducing fuel pilferage and boosting accountability.

Predictive & Preventive Maintenance

Monitor key operational thresholds and mechanical stress indicators to predict failures before they happen. Get maintenance reminders based on engine hours, fuel quality, or wear metrics to avoid unplanned downtime.

Remote Control & Automation

Start or stop your generator remotely. Integrate with building automation systems to enable auto-start during outages and auto-shutdown when grid power resumes—without manual intervention.

Advanced Analytics & Reporting

Generate customized reports on fuel usage trends, DG uptime/downtime, efficiency benchmarking, and compliance logs. Enable better forecasting and cost optimization.

Seamless System Integration

Our solution easily integrates with other facility systems like UPS, HVAC, AHUs, SCADA, and Building Management Systems (BMS), enabling centralized control through one smart platform.

Alerts & Notifications

Set up rule-based alerts for overheating, low fuel, low battery, excessive load, maintenance due, and more via SMS, email, or app notifications.

Secure Cloud Architecture

All data is encrypted and transmitted via secure protocols, ensuring high reliability, uptime, and compliance with industry-grade data security standards.

Use Cases: Industry-Wide Applications

Manufacturing Plants

Ensure uninterrupted production by monitoring DG readiness in real time. Prevent costly stoppages and track usage trends to improve energy planning and O&M (Operations & Maintenance).

Corporate Office Campuses & Business Parks

Monitor DG health across multiple towers from a centralized dashboard. Ensure seamless power backup without manual oversight, while reducing fuel waste and service delays.

Hospitals and Healthcare Centers

Critical medical equipment relies on uninterrupted power. Our system ensures your DG is always ready, helps track compliance, and prevents downtime that could impact patient care.

Data Centers and IT Facilities

Downtime is not an option. Get real-time alerts, performance analytics, and load monitoring to ensure servers stay online, no matter the grid condition.

Residential & Commercial Buildings

Enable facility managers to monitor shared DG units for societies, towers, or malls. Prevent overuse, track fuel delivery, and increase transparency in billing for DG power.

Remote Infrastructure & Construction Sites

Often located in areas with no grid access, DGs are critical for operations. Our remote DG monitoring ensures visibility and control without the need for on-site staff.

Airports, Railway Stations & Logistics Hubs

Avoid operational disruptions by remotely monitoring multiple DGs across terminals, cargo areas, and critical zones. Enable smart automation and ensure regulatory compliance.
