Dashboards, alerts, scheduled reports and an App Center for jobs like OEE and machine health all run on the gateway. Open a browser and go.
One gateway hears every sensor over long-range wireless mesh, processes and stores the data locally, then sends it to any dashboard, MQTT broker or platform you choose.
Drag-and-drop widgets let you build custom monitoring views for any audience, operators on the floor, maintenance managers, or front-office leadership. Mix pressure, temperature, vibration, current, and any other sensor on one screen, and every dashboard auto-refreshes with a fullscreen mode for wall-mounted displays.
In Atrium, Triggers are threshold conditions on a single sensor metric, they fire when a value crosses the line. Actions link one or more triggers to responses like email or relay control, and run when every trigger is met. You build both in the browser, no code required.

The App Center runs on the gateway itself, an app store on your own hardware. Productivity Monitor tracks runtime against shift targets, OEE rolls availability, performance and quality into one score, and AssetPulse turns vibration into plain-language machine health. Browse the catalog in your browser, install what the job needs in seconds, and update it in place. Your gateway starts as a lean core and grows only where your operation actually needs it.
Atrium runs as a fully self-contained system, but when you need to integrate, it’s ready. Forward readings to cloud platforms, databases, or your own software over open protocols, or enable Node-RED for a visual flow editor when you want to build something custom.
Update from Settings, then Updates. Your sensor data, reports and settings carry over, and gateways on 2.6.0 or 2.6.8 update directly.
Long-range charts now draw every averaged point at the time of the readings it covers, so a trend lines up whether you look at an hour or a month. Hover a point to see how many readings went into it, or click it to list every one.
The CSV button exports every reading in the range you chose, at its exact time. A 30-day export is 30 days of raw data, in your °C or °F setting.
Two gateways in the same building can each have their own network ID, so neither hears the other's sensors. Atrium moves each sensor across at its next check-in, so none is left behind.
Already built into 2.7.0: pick a published firmware build for a sensor and the gateway delivers it the next time the sensor wakes. It switches on with the next Sensor Decoder Library release.
What is inside the box, and how it connects.
A 1.6 GHz quad-core processor and 2 GB of DDR4 run the web interface, dashboards, alerting engine and database right on the gateway.
A built-in long-range receiver pulls in readings from more than 100 NCD wireless sensor types over a self-healing mesh reaching up to 2 miles line-of-sight. The sub-GHz (868 / 900 MHz) bands carry farther and through walls better than Wi-Fi or Bluetooth.
Every reading lands in an on-board SQL database you can query directly or export to CSV. Readings are kept whether the gateway is online or offline, so an internet outage leaves no gap in your history.
Two configurable Ethernet ports (one joins your network, one can run its own), dual-band 802.11ac Wi-Fi and a cellular option. Wi-Fi starts in access-point mode, so first-time setup needs nothing but a laptop or phone.
The flagship model opens a secure remote link over a Cloudflare tunnel, so you can check dashboards from anywhere.
New features and fixes install as one-click over-the-air updates, and new apps arrive through the App Center. The gateway you buy today keeps getting better without a truck roll.

Because Atrium takes in any NCD wireless sensor, one gateway can run maintenance, environmental, energy and productivity monitoring at once, in a plant, a pump station or a cold-storage warehouse.
Predictive MaintenanceTrend vibration, temperature, and current across motors, pumps, and compressors, and get an alert when a machine starts drifting toward failure.
Environmental MonitoringWatch temperature, humidity, and air quality across cold rooms, cleanrooms, and storage zones, with email alerts the moment a space drifts out of range.
Energy MonitoringPull in current and power readings to see where consumption goes, spot idle draw, and build the case for efficiency projects, without a metering contractor.
Productivity & OEEThe Productivity Monitor and OEE apps turn sensor-detected run/stop time into shift utilization and OEE scores, with no PLC tap and no MES to license.
Remote Site MonitoringLong-range mesh and cellular let one gateway cover a pump station, tank farm, or off-grid site and still report in, even where wired networks never reach.
Whole-Plant DashboardsMix every sensor type on one screen and put it on a wall display, so the whole plant’s live status is visible at a glance from the floor or the front office.
The same 10 sensors, monitored for three years. With Atrium it’s one purchase. With a cloud IoT subscription it’s a bill that never stops, and grows with every sensor you add.
The gateway works with every NCD wireless sensor. These are common first picks.
Smart Vibration SensorMount it on a motor, pump or fan. Vibration and temperature catch a failing bearing weeks before it stops the line.
Temperature & Humidity SensorMount it in a cooler, server room or warehouse. Temperature and humidity with an IP65 enclosure.
AC Current MonitorClamp the CT around a conductor. Current draw shows whether a machine is running and how hard.
Answers to the most common questions about the Atrium IIoT Gateway.
The Atrium IIoT Gateway is a self-contained industrial IoT platform that receives data from NCD wireless sensors and turns it into dashboards, alerts, and reports, all running on the gateway itself. It has a built-in long-range wireless receiver, a 1.6 GHz quad-core processor, 2 GB of memory, and an on-board SQL database, so you get a complete monitoring system in one box.
Yes, from Atrium 2.6.0 onward. You can ask about your equipment in plain language, and the assistant can act as well, from changing a sensor's reporting interval to running an installed app's action. You decide what it may do, permission by permission.
No. The Atrium Gateway is a one-time purchase. There are no per-sensor charges and no contract to keep your monitoring running.
No. The gateway stores readings locally and serves its dashboards over your own network, so monitoring keeps working and history keeps recording when the internet is down. If you want to view the gateway remotely, the flagship model can open a secure remote link, and you can optionally forward data to AWS, Azure, or another platform, but none of that is required to get full use of the gateway.
The Atrium Gateway works with the full line of NCD long-range wireless sensors, more than 100 sensor types spanning pressure, temperature, vibration, current, level, environmental, and productivity monitoring. It ingests their telemetry generically, so a single gateway can manage a mixed fleet of many different sensor types at once.
NCD sensors reach the gateway at up to roughly 2 miles line-of-sight on the 868/900MHz bands, and about 1 mile on the worldwide 2.4 GHz band, using a self-healing wireless mesh. The 868 and 900 MHz options are sub-GHz (sub-gigahertz) bands, and sub-gigahertz radio travels farther and penetrates walls and structures far better than higher-frequency 2.4 GHz, which is why the sub-GHz options reach roughly twice as far. The gateway offers a 900 MHz option for North and South America, an 868 MHz option for Europe, and a 2.4 GHz option worldwide.
The built-in receiver hears every NCD wireless sensor in range. From the web interface you whitelist the sensors you want to keep, then name them by asset or location. Readings begin landing in the on-board database right away and become available for dashboards, alerts, and reports, no code and no external software.
Yes. The Atrium Gateway can publish readings over MQTT to AWS, Azure, or any other platform, exposes a REST API for custom integrations, and keeps its data in an SQL database you can query directly. Node-RED is also pre-installed and can be enabled for building custom visual flows. You are never locked in, your data can flow anywhere you need it.
Platform updates install over the air at no cost, and Site Survey is free. The App Center also carries Productivity Monitor, OEE, Energy Monitor, Environmental and Action, and you install only the ones you need. AssetPulse Machine Health is a licensed premium app.
The Atrium Gateway has two Ethernet ports, one acts as a client on your network while the other can create its own network, and both are configurable with customizable firewalls. It also includes dual-band 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac Wi-Fi (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz) and a cellular option. Wi-Fi defaults to access-point mode so you can reach the interface easily during first-time setup.
We publish our prices. There is no quote form, no login and no sales call between you and the number. The Ordering section of the spec table names each version we sell and its part number, so you can match the one you want before you order.
No. The Atrium Gateway hears NCD wireless sensors only, so sensors made by other companies do not report to it. It is also the receiver and the software rather than a sensor itself: it collects, stores, displays and acts on readings, but it measures nothing on its own and ships without sensors. Tell us what you need to monitor and we will help you put the sensor list together.
