LJUBLJANA, Slovenia — October 20, 2026 — Today we announce the commercial availability of the Waboost "Limera", a plug-and-play water quality monitoring station for aquaculture, agriculture, wastewater and food & beverage operators. The sensor box connects any combination of industrial RS-485 Modbus sensors and streams live readings and alerts to Waboost Cloud. It starts at €400, with cloud access at €9 per device per month.
Sensors daisy-chain over a single cable run, each shipping with its own splitter, so adding a sensor means plugging in the next cable and selecting it in the app. Operators can start with one sensor and add more as needs grow.
"Data is where you should start as a business owner: before making any key decision, so you don't spend time and resources on something that may or may not work. For business owners to scale this kind of decision-making, sensor boxes need to be affordable, easy to order and easy to configure. Together with our engineering team, we did real groundwork to make that possible. We had to step away from traditional PLC controllers and ship a complete operating system. That unlocked an ocean of available hardware and modern development tools that make further development a breeze and bring costs down"
— Philip Kopylov, Project Manager
