Farmo Water Rat
Farmo Water Rat
A floating – no installation and portable solution for monitoring trough water levels.
Farmos’ Water Rat is a portable floating Water Level sensor - no installation needed. Just put in in the trough and let it float. There’s nothing else like it.
The Water Rat looks simple but has inbuilt smart technology including tilt sensor to detect movement, Telstra 4G/LTE to send data, and GPS to report location. When the water level reaches a low point, the Water Rat tilts over and sends an SMS alert to your phone. When the water level rises, another alert is sent to let you know the water level is restored.
When it's floating in a trough, cattle will inspect the Water Rat then quickly leave it alone once they realise, they can't push on it (and break it) like a fixed object. An efficient – no installation and portable water level sensor.

“As a Melbourne farmer I’m time poor so the greatest asset I have is real time management, I can be
busy in meetings all day in Singapore & still have real time data on my water assets half a world
away via my IPhone. Having spent 30 years in the electronics industry I believe companies like FMS
are the key to improve farm productivities well into next century”
