PROUDLY SOUTH AFRICAN ENGINEERING • ZAPDOS.CO.ZA

Engineered Locally for African Conditions. Supported Nationwide.

Imported off-the-shelf sensors often fail under South African UV radiation, highveld lightning storms, and load-shedding power instability. Zapdos Technologies designs and assembles ruggedized telemetry solutions backed by local stock, local calibration partnerships, and zero-forex lead times.

Load-Shedding Immune

Integrated MPPT solar charging and high-cycle LiFePO4 battery packs provide up to 14 days of zero-sun autonomy.

SCADA & Open API

Native Modbus RS485/TCP, 4–20mA, MQTT, and REST Webhook integration into existing mine or plant SCADA systems.

Local Calibration & Spares

No waiting 12 weeks for overseas factory RMA. Swap-out sensor cartridges and SANAS-traceable calibration in SA.

Instant Multi-Channel Alerts

Real-time SMS, WhatsApp, Email, and local siren relay triggers the moment dust, vibration, or dBA thresholds are breached.
