SimC — efficient fuel management with instant theft and water detection
TTM Desarrollos Electrónicos (Mendoza, Argentina) builds the SimC, a capacitive fuel-control probe with instant detection of refuels, unauthorized drains and water in the fuel. It connects to the Rinho Smart IoT over serial port (RS-232, RS-485 or TTL 3.3/5V), delivering tank level, alarms and configurable reports.
About TTM Desarrollos
TTM Desarrollos Electrónicos is an Argentine engineering firm based in Mendoza, specialized in automation, control and measurement for industry, transport and research. Their SimC product is a capacitive fuel-control probe designed for trucks, off-road machinery, fixed tanks and tanker trucks. It measures tank level with averaging and stabilization, generates per-refuel reports, and provides instant alerts on water in the fuel and unauthorized drains. It includes an intrinsic safety barrier for gasoline compliant with IEC 60079-0/11 certified by Argentina's INTI, a wide 8–35V VDC power input and temperature compensation. The product is validated by leading Argentine fleet operators: Andesmar, Messina, Lojack, Sitrack, Safezone, Cataccargo, Vizion, Pilink, Gestya, Globalis, Wara, Pressa, Megatrans and El Cacique. The Rinho Smart IoT captures the SimC's serial frames — level, temperature-compensated readings, refuel/drain alarms and water detection — to trigger on-board actions or relay them to any telemetry platform.

Works natively with our trackers and solutions
Rinho Smart IoT captures SimC's serial frames (over RS-232, RS-485 or TTL 3.3/5V) with instantaneous and averaged tank level, temperature-compensated readings, refuel and drain alarms, water detection and configurable reporting parameters. That data can drive on-board actions (audible alarm, cutoff, siren) or be relayed to any telemetry platform for consumption auditing, theft alerts and per-refuel reports — the backbone of the business case where between 10% and 30% of every fuel-load investment is lost to theft or excess consumption.
