Atenea

Industrial IIoT Platform

Transform your lighting infrastructure into a smart data network. No construction. No cabling. And no stopping production.

Every unplanned failure in a hazardous area comes at a high cost. With Atenea, you’re always one step ahead.

What is Atenea?

Atenea is the only ATEX/IECEx-certified industrial IIoT platform. It uses light fixtures as connectivity nodes to create a wireless network for monitoring, sensing, and control, without the need for additional wiring or modifications to the installation.
From a centralized control panel, it monitors energy consumption, equipment status, gas levels, environmental variables, and temperature—among other factors—in real time, with the ability to remotely control each light fixture in the facility.
The result is a more efficient and better-controlled plant that generates data, anticipates failures, and continuously reduces costs.

An IIoT platform designed for demanding ATEX industries

Multiprotocol and open

Atenea isn’t a closed system. It’s compatible with the most widely used communication protocols: LoRa, NB-IoT, 3G/4G/5G, and integrates with the customer’s existing SCADA, ERP and cloud platforms. No vendor lock-in. No complex integrations.

Wireless and no construction required

Atenea’s installation requires no additional cabling or modifications to existing infrastructure. Communication is fully wireless, allowing the platform to be deployed in a live facility without interrupting operations

Cybersecurity by design

The platform is designed under the ISO 27001 information security standard. Communications travel end-to-end encrypted, updates are performed remotely via OTA, and data can be integrated into the customer’s own servers and cloud.

The only one certified to ATEX and IECEx standards

Atenea is the only IIoT platform with ATEX and IECEx certification for lighting control. In hazardous areas, certification isn’t optional — it’s the starting point. And only Atenea meets it in this segment

Three cost-saving strategies that industrial plants ignore

Industrial lighting is a key driver of efficiency that most plants are not yet taking advantage of. Atenea allows you to completely automate it.

  • Return on investment in less than 2 years. Lighting automation significantly and measurably reduces energy consumption starting in the first few weeks.

  • Light fixtures that last up to 20% longer. Menos sustituciones, menos intervenciones, menos coste de mantenimiento correctivo.

  • Fewer replacements, fewer repairs, lower corrective maintenance costs. Inadequate lighting can cause eye strain, fatigue, and workplace accidents. Atenea automatically and continuously ensures compliance with the levels required by occupational safety regulations.

ATEX compliance integrated into every layer of the system

Atenea is the only IIoT lighting control platform that operates natively in areas with hazardous environments, without adding regulatory complexity.

– Compatible with zones 1, 2, 21, and 22

– Directive 2014/34/EU

– No interference with intrinsic safety

Atenea does not add to regulatory complexity: it relies on the ATEX certification of the luminaires with which it operates. The system is compatible with equipment certified for Zones 1, 2, 21, and 22 in accordance with Directive 2014/34/EU, and its communication architecture is designed not to interfere with the intrinsic safety conditions of the environment. Nothing that Atenea adds detracts in the slightest from what the regulations require.

How does it work? 3 components: an active network

1. The luminaire

Each smart light fixture includes a motion sensor, an antenna, and a processing module. It serves as both the data collection point and the network node.

2. Communication node

It is the component responsible for receiving and transmitting data wirelessly to the central platform.

3. The sensors

It allows for the integration of additional sensors based on the installation’s needs: temperature, humidity, carbon monoxide, energy consumption, gas detection, or flow, among others.

The biggest barrier to digitizing an industrial plant isn’t the technology—it’s the fear of complexity. With Atenea, the first step is a pilot test that can be rolled out in a matter of weeks in a limited area of your facility, without disrupting operations and without a large initial investment. In just a few weeks, you’ll have real data on your plant’s performance; you can verify energy savings and assess how the system integrates with your current systems before rolling it out to the entire facility.

Here’s how we implemented Atenea

  • Installation Analysis. We evaluate your plant’s characteristics, the existing ATEX zoning, and the critical parameters you want to monitor.

  • Solution Design. We define and design the architecture tailored to your facility: nodes, sensors, communication protocols, and control panel.

  • PoC piloto We roll out the solution in a limited area and provide you with real-world data before you commit to a full implementation.

  • Implementation and launch. We install, configure, and integrate Atenea with your management systems. We train the maintenance team so they can operate independently from day one.

  • Ongoing support and maintenance. Airfal offers comprehensive platform maintenance services, including updates, technical support, and periodic inspections.

From passive infrastructure to an active data network. 

Most industrial plants already have the infrastructure they need to go digital. All you have to do is activate it. Atenea turns every existing light fixture into a data node, no construction, no additional wiring, and no disruption to operations. The result is a smart network capable of monitoring and issuing alerts in real time from anywhere in the facility, starting on day one.

Why choose the Atenea IIoT platform?

Reduces energy consumption by up to 85%

A large portion of industrial energy consumption stems from hidden inefficiencies. Atenea monitors in real time, detects deviations, and adjusts lighting based on actual usage in each area. With a demonstrable ROI in less than 2 years.

Detect anomalies before they become failures

Many breakdowns begin long before a machine stops. With Atenea, you can identify deviations in temperature, energy consumption, or vibration in real time and take action before the failure affects production and your bottom line.

Less intervention. More impact

Regular inspections without actual data result in unnecessary time and costs. Atenea tells you exactly what needs attention and when, without blind inspections.

One dashboard. The entire plant. In real time

The plant manager detects incidents, analyzes consumption, and makes operational decisions with full visibility from any device—without relying on manual reports or having to be physically present at the facility.
