The Apex DIN Rail family integrates industrial sensors, vehicles, engines, and energy systems into any IoT platform — yours, ours, or anyone's. No subscriptions required. No data held hostage.
You end up with proprietary gateways locked to closed clouds, protocols that don't talk to your existing infrastructure, and recurring fees for data you already own. Apex was built to end that trade-off.
Proprietary hardware tied to a single cloud platform. When the subscription ends, the hardware stops working.
Your site runs Modbus. Your vehicles run J1939. Your solar runs Victron. Nothing talks to anything without custom middleware.
Air-gapped sites, offline-first operations, and data sovereignty requirements don't fit the SaaS-only model.
One device for sensors. Another for engines. Another for solar. Three vendors, three portals, three sets of firmware to manage.
The Apex DIN Rail family is a range of rugged, 35mm rail-mount controllers and I/O modules designed for panel builders, systems integrators, and OEM machine builders. Every model ships with a built-in web interface, configurable I/O, and native support for the protocols your application already uses.
Deploy a single unit to monitor a cold room. Stack modules across a switchboard to automate a processing plant. Mount one in a vehicle cab-pack to report engine telemetry. Same hardware family. Same configuration tools.
The workhorse of the Apex family. Universal I/O with analogue inputs, relay outputs, and multi-protocol serial — in a single DIN module.
Purpose-built for mobile and off-highway applications. Reads engine parameters directly from the vehicle network and reports over cellular with configurable thresholds and alerts.
Native integration with Victron Energy systems and other solar charge controllers. Monitor generation, state of charge, load, and fault states without custom adapters.
Add analogue or digital I/O capacity to any APX-100 backbone. Ideal for high-channel-count applications — cold stores, process plant, multi-zone monitoring.
Apex hardware is designed around open standards — not proprietary ones. If your equipment already uses an established industrial protocol, there's a high probability Apex connects to it directly, out of the box.
The most widely deployed industrial protocol. Apex acts as master or slave across RS-485 and Ethernet simultaneously.
Read engine RPM, coolant temp, fuel level, fault codes, and hundreds of PGNs directly from any J1939-compliant engine or vehicle.
Selectable serial mode. Supports multi-drop bus topologies across legacy instruments, meters, and field devices.
True two-wire loop inputs with 12/24-bit resolution. Configurable for any sensor: pressure, temperature, level, flow.
Supported for specialist vehicle and equipment integration applications requiring H7S communication protocol.
Native support for Victron solar charge controllers, BMV battery monitors, MultiPlus inverters, and MPPT units.
Apex devices do not require a cloud subscription to function. Every unit ships with a built-in web interface accessible on your local network from any browser. Configuration, status, and live data — all available without a single packet leaving your site.
When you're ready to push data upstream, Apex publishes over MQTT, REST, or direct to any major IoT platform. You choose the destination. You hold the credentials. We don't see your data.
For teams that want managed configuration, fleet-wide firmware updates, remote diagnostics, and multi-site dashboards, Apex Cloud is available as a subscription add-on. Same devices. Zero commitment required at purchase.
Open a browser on any device connected to the same network. Navigate to the device IP. You're in — no app, no drivers, no internet required.
The local web interface provides live sensor readings, I/O status, protocol configuration, network settings, and event logs. Ideal for commissioning in the field, fault-finding without a laptop, or operating in environments where cloud access is not available.
Technician-friendly. Every parameter is labelled. Hover tooltips explain every setting. No specialist software. No dongle. No callout fee.
Monitor compressors, evaporators, door sensors, and ambient conditions across cold stores and refrigerated transport. Alarm on excursions before product is compromised.
Connect to any J1939 engine — trucks, generators, excavators, marine. Report hours, fault codes, fuel consumption, and temperature to any fleet platform.
Native Victron integration means no adapters, no hacks. Monitor MPPT, battery state, load, and grid-tie status. Perfect for remote sites and hybrid systems.
Retrofit monitoring onto legacy plant without replacing PLCs. Sit alongside existing Modbus infrastructure and feed data to modern SCADA or cloud analytics.
Cellular-connected monitoring for pumps, tanks, irrigation, and grain storage. Works where Wi-Fi doesn't. Local logging keeps data safe through connectivity gaps.
Audit-ready temperature and humidity records for GDP-compliant storage. Continuous logging, tamper-evident records, and alert escalation on excursion.
Apex is designed for integrators and engineers who already have a platform, a workflow, and a preference. We don't compete with your stack — we connect to it.
