Remote Monitoring Made Simple. Security Built In - Day One.
Most remote monitoring solutions ask you to make a tradeoff: deploy something that's easy to install and manage, or deploy something that's actually secure. With aging infrastructure, dispersed assets, and growing regulatory pressure around cybersecurity, that's not a tradeoff a water utility should have to make.
The LACROIX SOFREL LogUp was built to eliminate it.
SOFREL LogUp - What it is
4G LTE-M & NB-IoT Data Logger for Water Networks and Isolated Sites
The SOFREL LogUp is a compact, ruggedized 4G data logger purpose-built for remote monitoring of water distribution networks, pressure zones, isolated pumping stations, and remote assets where wired connectivity isn't practical and manual data collection isn't acceptable.
It combines ultra-low-power 4G LPWAN cellular connectivity with patented screwless quick-access hardware design, a complete fleet management cloud platform, and a Bluetooth mobile app for field commissioning — all in a single solution that ships ready to deploy.
What sets it apart isn't any one feature. It's the fact that end-to-end cybersecurity isn't a bolt-on option — it's the foundation the entire platform is built on.
A Complete System, Not Just a Device
The SOFREL LogUp isn't a standalone data logger
It's a complete remote monitoring solution that ships as a cohesive system:
SOFREL LogUp data logger
The field hardware. Eco-designed, compact, IP68-enhanced watertight sealing, quick connect/disconnect connectors, and easy on-site access to the SIM card and battery. Rated –4°F to +158°F. 2 lb. Runs for years on its internal high-capacity lithium battery.
My SOFREL LogUp mobile app
A Bluetooth-connected iOS/Android application your field teams use to commission, configure, and run diagnostics on any LogUp device without opening it or running cables. Configuration changes, firmware updates, and troubleshooting happen from a phone, standing next to the enclosure.
LX CONNECT cloud platform
The centralized web-based management layer. LX CONNECT handles equipment fleet management, user access and rights management, automatic cybersecurity certificate renewals via Microsoft PKI, remote configuration and software updates across your entire deployed fleet, and data sharing with your existing SCADA or business applications via REST API.
Together, these three components give you a complete picture of your remote assets — without a server room, without a VPN, and without a specialist on-call every time something needs to change.
Why It Matters for Water Utilities
Built for the Cybersecurity Requirements You're Already Facing
Water and wastewater utilities operating under AWIA 2018, EPA cybersecurity directives, and emerging state-level OT security requirements can't treat field monitoring hardware as an afterthought. Every device on your network is a potential attack surface.
The SOFREL LogUp is one of the few data loggers on the market actively pursuing IEC 62443 certification — the leading international standard for industrial cybersecurity. The hEN 18031-1 and hEN 18031-2 "RED-DA" certifications are already in place, and IEC 62443 compliance is in progress. End-to-end security covers the device, the communications channel, and the management platform — not just one layer.
For utilities that need to document their cybersecurity posture to regulators, auditors, or insurers, that matters.
