YE DIGITAL Corporation (Headquarters: Kokura Kita-ku, Kitakyushu City, Fukuoka Prefecture; President and CEO: Yuji Tamai; hereinafter 'YE Digital') will begin providing a new model of its remote tank and equipment monitoring solution, 'Miru Tank,' starting September 2026.

The new model expands the range of compatible sensors, enabling remote monitoring across a wider variety of equipment and environments compared to the previous model.

This enhancement allows measurement of objects where sensor contact is undesirable, broadening application possibilities. The solution is expected to be widely adopted in markets such as disaster prevention, water infrastructure, and fuel delivery.

Expanded Sensor Compatibility Broadens Monitoring Applications

1. Wider Monitoring Capabilities Than Previous Model

The new model now supports digital input, expanding the range of connectable sensors. This enables non-contact measurement of objects where direct sensor contact is not preferred.

As a result, it can be used for hygienic applications such as edible oil tanks, as well as for mobile containers like drums.

<Example Applications (Partial)>

Monitoring residual edible oil levels using sensors that measure from outside the tank

Monitoring chemical or water storage tank levels using ultrasonic sensors

Indoor environmental monitoring using sensors that measure temperature, humidity, and CO₂ concentration

2. Remote Communication Setting Adjustments

Communication frequency settings can now be changed remotely via the cloud system. This allows easy adjustment of transmission frequency, which trades off with battery life. Users can collect detailed data during initial deployment or alarm events, then optimize operations by prioritizing battery life once the system stabilizes.

3. Enhanced Communication Performance

The LTE-M communication module has been upgraded to a higher-grade model, achieving more stable communication with features such as self-recovery functions in case of errors.

These improvements enable remote monitoring of diverse equipment and environments, contributing to reduced burdens on inspection rounds and confirmation tasks, and improving overall operational efficiency.

Diverse Market Applications

By expanding monitoring options, the new model contributes to reducing the workload of routine inspections and verification tasks, enhancing business efficiency.

Additionally, the solution is designed for use across various markets:

● Municipal, Disaster Prevention, and Water Infrastructure Markets

Efficient inspection and disaster preparedness through remote monitoring of water storage tanks, fuel tanks, and spring wells

● Oil and Fuel Delivery Markets

Optimized delivery planning and improved delivery operations through remote monitoring of fuel tank levels

● Fisheries, Aquaculture, and Marine Markets

Reduced risk of fuel shortages and optimized refueling operations through monitoring of fuel tank levels and aquaculture facility water levels

● Medical and Industrial Gas Markets

Optimized gas cylinder replacement timing and reduced risk of supply shortages through remote gas level monitoring

Growing Demand for Monitoring

'Miru Tank' has already achieved cumulative sales of 5,000 units※ as a remote monitoring solution for tanks and equipment. ※As of June 2026

Recently, demand has increased for non-contact measurement of substances like edible oil, where sensor contact is undesirable, as well as for remote monitoring of environmental data such as temperature, humidity, and CO₂ concentration. To meet these needs, the new model expands the range of compatible sensors.

What is Miru Tank?

By connecting a tank's sensor to the 'Miru Tank' terminal, the solution transmits tank level and equipment data to the cloud, enabling remote monitoring. Since tank levels can be checked via the cloud, manual inspection rounds become unnecessary, contributing to more efficient delivery operations.

Remote monitoring concept using the feed tank level monitoring solution 'Miru Tank'

YE Digital will continue to meet diverse remote monitoring needs for equipment and environments through the new model, contributing to reduced inspection burdens and improved operational efficiency.
