Why Choose the Micro Red?

The Micro Red is Gasbot's primary deployment platform — used by leading LPG distributors across 13 countries to eliminate manual dipping, prevent stockouts, and optimise delivery routes.

Cat 1b Cellular

NB-IoT and 4G LTE Cat 1b connectivity ensures reliable data transmission on modern cellular networks globally.

IECEx Certified

Intrinsically safe for Zone 1 and Zone 2 explosive atmospheres — the highest standard for LPG and industrial gas environments.

10+ Year Battery

Deploy and forget. The Micro Red operates for over a decade without a battery change.

Pressure & Temp

Accurate pressure and temperature sensing across all deployment types. Pairs with the TE MSP300 sensor for industrial gas cylinder packs, or a Rochester cable for LPG bulk tanks — one platform, multiple configurations.

NFC Configuration

Tap your smartphone to activate and configure the device in the field — set measurement intervals, send modes, and threshold triggers without tools or a laptop.

IP68 Rated

Fully sealed against water and dust ingress — suitable for outdoor, underground, and harsh industrial environments.

One Platform, Multiple Asset Types

The Micro Red is Gasbot's primary deployment platform — used across LPG bulk tanks, industrial gas cylinder packs, autogas vessels, and commercial storage. Whether you're monitoring a single bulk tank or a 12-pack cylinder bundle at a manufacturing facility, the Micro Red adapts to the asset.

Industrial Gas Cylinder Packs — How It Works

For industrial gas applications such as 6-pack and 12-pack cylinder bundles, the Micro Red pairs with a TE MSP300 pressure transducer mounted at the manifold. Rather than measuring individual cylinders, a single pressure point gives you system-level visibility of the entire bundle — detecting depletion, changeover events, and abnormal usage patterns in near real time.

Pressure Readings & Alerts

Detect Cylinder Depletion

Pressure drops signal near-empty or empty status — triggering replenishment alerts before supply is interrupted.

Identify Changeover Events

A sudden pressure jump or drop indicates bank switching — giving you a precise record of when each cylinder bank was consumed.

Catch Leaks & Abnormal Usage

Unexpected pressure decay between readings flags potential leaks or unusually high consumption for immediate investigation.

Pressure or Dial? The Right Sensor for the Right Asset.

The Micro Red supports two sensing configurations depending on the asset type. For LPG bulk tanks and single cylinders, a Rochester dial cable provides direct level measurement. For industrial gas cylinder packs and manifold systems, a TE MSP300 pressure sensor at the manifold delivers system-level visibility — the standard approach for industrial gas environments.
