Intelligent Remote Insect Monitoring and Reporting System: Insect Monitoring Device Engineering Installation and Usage Guide

NiuBoL NBL-IoT-SRPMS Intelligent Remote Insect Monitoring and Reporting System: Complete Engineering Installation and Intelligent Usage Guide

In the implementation of smart agriculture and digital plant protection projects, the NiuBoL NBL-IoT-SRPMS intelligent remote insect monitoring and reporting system has become the preferred choice for system integrators and agricultural project contractors due to its high degree of automation and industrial-grade stability. This guide aims to provide comprehensive technical operation references for B2B partners—from engineering implementation, system configuration, logic operation to troubleshooting—ensuring the equipment achieves long-term, precise monitoring operations in harsh field environments.

Industrial-Grade Equipment Standards and Core Technical Architecture

The R&D and production of NiuBoL NBL-IoT-SRPMS strictly comply with the national standard GB/T 24689.1-2009 (Plant Protection Machinery – Pest Forecasting Light). Its core architecture is based on an all-stainless steel structure, integrating photoelectric sensing, far-infrared thermal processing, 4G wireless communication, and an Android embedded control system.

The system can independently complete the full process of attracting, killing, drying, photographing, dispensing, and cleaning insects. It also features reserved RS485/232 interfaces for horizontal integration with meteorological monitoring, soil moisture, and other IoT systems, providing multi-dimensional ecological data support for research institutions and agricultural management departments.

Civil Engineering Construction and Hardware Installation Specifications

For large-scale agricultural engineering projects, the stability of the foundation construction directly affects the service life of the equipment. Below is the standard installation process for NBL-IoT-SRPMS.

1. Solar Bracket Foundation Construction
If the project selects the solar power supply scheme (400W solar panel & 200AH colloidal battery), an independent bracket foundation must be constructed first.
Foundation excavation: Reserved pit size 600mm × 600mm, depth 300mm.
Ground cage embedding: Use ground cage for fixation, with bolt length protruding 30mm above the cement surface. Key point: The bracket must face south to maximize light conversion efficiency.
Concrete pouring: Use C20 strength concrete, total pouring height 600mm (300mm underground, 300mm above ground).
Fixed installation: After the foundation is fully dry, secure the assembled bracket using M16 nuts.

2. Insect Monitoring Light Main Unit Installation
The main unit foundation must bear the weight of the entire machine and wind load, requiring higher stability.
Foundation specifications: Excavate 1000mm × 1000mm × 300mm reserved pit.
Positioning and drilling: After concrete is fully dry, use an impact drill to make holes at 760mm × 500mm center spacing.
Fixing components: Install M12 expansion screws, ensuring verticality.
Overall hoisting: Align the NiuBoL forecasting light main unit with the bolt positions, place it steadily, and reinforce.
Safety reminder: In areas prone to thunderstorms, a lightning rod must be installed on top of the equipment, and grounding must be completed according to the grounding mark on the lamp body.

Interactive Control and Operating Mode Configuration

NBL-IoT-SRPMS is equipped with a 10-inch Android industrial-grade color touchscreen, supporting multi-mode switching and parameter customization.

1. Power Supply Mode Self-Check
AC 220V mode: Turn on the main power switch and switch to “AC Power” in system settings.
DC solar mode: Switch to “DC Power”, ensure stable voltage input.

2. Detailed Explanation of Three Core Operating Modes
Time Control Mode: Users can customize up to 4 working periods based on the activity patterns of target pests (e.g., cutworms, cotton bollworms). Note: The shortest recommended photo interval is 20 minutes to match the far-infrared drying time cycle.
Light Control Mode: The system monitors ambient light intensity in real time. When illuminance is below 850Lux and lasts for 30s (dusk), the device automatically starts; when above 850Lux and lasts for 30s (dawn), it enters standby.
Rain Control Mode: This is the system’s active protection logic. When the rain sensor is triggered, the system immediately turns off the insect-attracting light and activates the drainage mechanism to ensure rainwater is discharged through louvers and dedicated channels without entering the precision processing chamber.

3. Manual Debugging Mode
This mode is specifically designed for engineering acceptance and troubleshooting. In manual mode, the operator can independently control:
On/off of the insect-attracting light;
Heating self-check of the far-infrared processing chamber;
Vibration of the insect collection board and cleaning action of the stepper motor brush;
Remote simulated photography by the industrial camera.

Insect Processing Flow and AI Identification Logic

The technical barrier of the NiuBoL forecasting system lies in its ability to process insect bodies with “high quality and integrity.”

• Attraction and Impact: Insects are attracted by 365-395nm wavelength LED insect light and fall into the insect funnel after impacting the 5mm four-sided glass screen.

• Far-Infrared Killing: Live insects enter the processing chamber, where the infrared module causes rapid death within 3-5 minutes.

• High-Temperature Drying: The drying chamber heats to 90℃ and maintains for 15 minutes. This ensures insects do not rot or deform, creating conditions for high-definition photography.

• Automatic Spreading: Vibration device evenly distributes dried insects on the rectangular insect collection tray.

• Image Acquisition: 12-megapixel industrial camera takes high-definition photos at timed intervals and uploads them to the NiuBoL IoT platform via 4G/Ethernet.

• AI Identification and Cleaning: The platform uses AI technology to automatically identify pest species and quantities, then the stepper motor drives the brush to clean the collection board, and insects fall into the bottom collection drawer.

Operation and Maintenance Management and Precautions

To ensure the NiuBoL forecasting system maintains high-precision operation throughout its full life cycle, the O&M team should strictly follow these procedures:

• Orientation Alignment: During installation, the front of the forecasting light must face east to optimize light control sensing and trapping efficiency.

• Sensor Cleaning: Regularly wipe the rain control sensor and light sensor probe to prevent malfunctions caused by bird droppings or dust accumulation.

• Glass Screen Cleaning: Dirt on the impact screen reduces light transmittance and should be cleaned regularly with a damp cloth.

• Environmental Matching: Set working intervals must be greater than the 15-minute baking time to avoid logic conflicts causing insect accumulation.

• Weather Warnings: In case of typhoons or extreme heavy rain, it is recommended to remotely shut down via the platform and resume operation two hours after the weather improves.

Common Fault Diagnosis and Handling (FAQ)

As a system integrator, mastering basic troubleshooting capabilities can significantly reduce after-sales costs.

In-Depth FAQ for B2B Purchasers
