Abstract

Abstract The development of monitoring and control system technology in the shipping industry today is experiencing very rapid development, one of the developing technologies is the fuel monitoring system. The fuel monitoring system is very important in the shipping industry because it relates to shipping operational costs and controls fuel usage during the voyage. Currently, fuel level monitoring is carried out using a sensor that sends data using a cable this has a problem because sending data via cable will have noise which will affect the measurement results. In this study, it will be discussed sending data from sensor measurements without using cables using the LoRa Dragino 915 MHz module, where the LoRa module will be divided into two points, namely LoRa Client and LoRa Server. The results of this study, the ship’s fuel level reading system can function properly and according to the specifications expected. The results of this prototype can read the condition of the fuel level in the fuel tank in real-time. In addition, the communication range between LoRa Client and Lora Server tested in this study can work with a distance of 170 meters in an open space and has a communication distance of 63 meters in a closed room.
