Etrack Oyster 3: GPS tracking for unpowered equipment

Trailers and equipment that spend a lot of time away from the depot are easy to lose track of, and replacing something you already own gets expensive. Because the Oyster 3 runs on its own battery, you can fit it to gear with no power supply and see where it is and when it last moved.

Why it helps

What you can do with the Oyster 3

Sign-out sheets only go so far once your gear is spread across sites. Put an Oyster 3 on each asset and you can find it in MyEROAD, with a record of where it's been if it's ever stolen. For gear with its own power supply, there's the hardwired Etrack G70.

Stock takes without walking the yard

Trailers, containers and hire gear show up in MyEROAD beside your vehicles, each with a daily location.

When gear goes missing

Our support team can switch on recovery mode, so the tracker reports more often. And its trail gives police and your insurer something to go on.

Servicing that suits how it's used

Time-based reminders for gear that stays put. If it moves around, base them on distance instead.

Capabilities

What the Oyster 3 does

Reports on the move, sleeps when parked

It sends GPS updates while it's moving and drops into sleep mode once it stops. All that time asleep is what makes the battery last.

  • Motion-triggered GPS updates
  • A daily location, even if it hasn't moved

Run hours for assets that travel

For assets that move more than 250 metres at a time, the Oyster 3 can also track distance travelled, calculated in MyEROAD.

  • Service reminders as the distance adds up
  • A service history for each asset

Where it fits best

Use it on unpowered gear where a daily position is plenty and long battery life matters. Handy for anything that's rarely back at the depot.

  • Trailers without power
  • Containers and skip bins
  • Pumps, agricultural implements and hire equipment
How it works

Getting your gear into MyEROAD

1

Fix it to the asset

It's battery powered, so mounting it is the whole installation.

2

It reports when things move

It sends updates while the asset's moving, and a daily location if it stays put.

3

Look it up in MyEROAD

Its movement history is there, plus run hours for the trips long enough to count.

Connected platform

Manage your gear and vehicles in MyEROAD

MyEROAD

See which trailers and skip bins get moved and which just sit there, before you buy or hire another.
