IoT Box

Industrial Data Acquisition Simplified

 WAGO IoT Box: Your Entryway to Digitalization
A ready-to-use solution for IoT with pre-built hardware and software, ready for data collection and
cloud connectivity.

The IoT Box enables local data collection at the

controller while seamlessly connecting to various
devices via multiple fieldbuses and protocols.

Hardware

The IoT Box provides you with a custom-built

assembly to meet your needs. Choose your own
controller and I/O configuration, including specialty
modules like 3-phase power measurement,
counters, and more. HMI (touch screen) options are
also available in various sizes.

operations across multiple
industry applications
The WAGO IoT Box application program efficiently
collects sensor signals and data from machines and
systems (PLC, etc.), transmitting them as directed to
MES systems or cloud systems. ​

By consolidating data in the cloud, the WAGO IoT

Box offers a comprehensive view of consumption
across buildings, systems and machines, facilitating
direct comparisons. This enables improved
consumption forecasting by summarizing and
comparing data with historical information.

Building Management

• Monitoring power consumption can help

identify opportunities for energy savings and
cost reduction.

• Measuring the temperature of various zones

in a building can help optimize heating and
cooling systems.

• Monitoring CO2 levels can help determine

occupancy and ensure adequate ventilation.

Manufacturing

• WAGES (Water, Air, Gas, Electricity, Steam)

monitoring allows manufacturers to track
and analyze resource consumption trends,
identify inefficiencies, and optimize resource
usage.

• By analyzing power consumption patterns

and trends, manufacturers can detect
anomalies, identify potential faults and
schedule preventive maintenance.
