The Argos system can automatically tell you the positions of your intermodal containers anywhere in the world. Benefits: better environmental safety, lower costs, more satisfied customers.

Monitor your containers, worldwide
 
A container operator in Philadelphia wants to know how far unit C36 is from Hamburg, Germany.
An Australian reefer manager needs daily updates on the temperature of a cargo crossing the Simpson desert.
A shipper needs maps showing the positions of trucks carrying radioactive waste, and the closest city to each.
 
And they all want their data on the Internet.

  The Argos satellite-based location and data collection system will track your hazardous materials worldwide, supplying you with one position a day or up to one an hour.

 
  • Less risk of environmental damage if a hazardous materials container has an accident or is hijacked
  • Safer service to your customers: you can report where each container is, to within a few hundred meters, in real time

Check sensor data
 
Argos transmitters can also send data from sensors fitted to the container. If temperatures and liquid levels are within limits, doors secure, voltages nominal, HazMats are less likely to deteriorate.

The HazMats world's simplest system
 
Argos uses all-weather transmitters, weighing just a few kg, that fit discreetly onto any type of container. Apart from that, all you need to track your container is a personal computer and a standard browser such as Netscape or Internet Explorer to consult your data on a website. Types of cargo tracked by Argos include:
  • corrosive chemicals
  • toxic products
  • flammable liquids
  • explosives
  • radioactive byproducts and waste
