Sensor Nodes

Universal Sensor Nodes deliver real-time data from across your sugarbush, helping you quickly pinpoint leaks and problem areas so you can walk fewer miles and maximize gallons per tap. Each node supports up to three sensors in any combination, so your system can easily expand as your needs grow.

Connect 1, 2, or 3 sensors to a single node — vacuum, tank level, water meters, pressure, and more.

OnX Hunt Integration

Sap Spy can now be integrated with your existing onX map of your sugarbush. Mainlines change color based on vacuum readings, and measured vacuum from sensor nodes throughout the sugarbush is overlaid on the map. This allows you to quickly pinpoint leaks in your system and get back to max vacuum.
