Why Choose the Lovato EXCGLB02 Gateway Data Logger?
The Lovato EXCGLB02 is an industrial gateway data logger with Ethernet, 4G LTE and GNSS (GPS) connectivity designed to collect Modbus data from field devices and publish it to supervision software, including cloud-based monitoring systems. As part of the Lovato EXCGLB communication device series, it provides a flexible interface between industrial equipment, energy-monitoring devices and remote data-management platforms.
The EXCGLB02 communicates with field equipment through its RS485 serial interface or Ethernet connection and supports devices operating as Modbus slaves, including compatible third-party equipment. Integrated local memory allows collected information to be logged for subsequent consultation and transmission, while the built-in web server provides convenient access to recorded data.
With 4G LTE mobile connectivity and integrated GNSS (GPS) geolocation, the EXCGLB02 is particularly suitable for remotely located installations, generating sets and rental machinery where both operational data and equipment location may need to be monitored. It operates from a 12–24 V DC auxiliary supply and supports multiple devices over RS485 and Ethernet.

Reliable Data Logging and Remote Connectivity
The Lovato EXCGLB02 provides a central connection point for collecting operational and energy data from industrial devices. Its RS485 and Ethernet interfaces allow data to be gathered from compatible Modbus equipment before being stored locally or transmitted to supervisory systems for analysis and remote monitoring.
Integrated 4G LTE communication extends monitoring capabilities to installations where a conventional wired internet connection is impractical. The GNSS function adds equipment geolocation, making the EXCGLB02 especially useful for mobile generating sets, rental machinery and geographically distributed assets.
Typical Applications
- Industrial energy monitoring and data acquisition systems.
- Remote monitoring of electrical distribution equipment.
- Power factor correction system supervision.
- Soft starter and AC drive monitoring applications.
- Remote supervision of Micro PLC installations.
- Generating sets requiring remote communications and geolocation.
- Rental machinery and mobile equipment tracking.
