The cost of untracked assets.

Trailers, containers, generators, and equipment move between sites with no visibility. Theft, poor utilisation, and replacement cycles quietly inflate capex while delaying jobs.

Tracking non-powered assets

Trailers and equipment move off-site with no location data. Staff waste time calling drivers or searching depots when assets are needed on urgent jobs.

Battery replacement costs

Frequent battery changes mean site visits, labour time, and device downtime. Short-life batteries create an ongoing maintenance burden for operations teams.

Harsh Australian conditions

Assets sit exposed in mining sites, construction yards, and remote depots. Dust, rain, heat, and vibration destroy devices without proper environmental sealing.

Purpose-built for unpowered assets.

Ctrack asset trackers deliver long battery life, weatherproof durability, and reliable connectivity across Australian conditions.

10-20 year battery life (Digital Matter)

Fit-and-forget battery technology means years of operation without site visits. Low-power GPS modules and intelligent wake modes extend battery life without sacrificing location accuracy.

  • Up to 20 years on single battery (configurable reporting intervals)
  • Low-battery alerts sent via SMS and dashboard
  • Field-replaceable battery packs for quick swaps

Weatherproof IP67+ rating

Sealed enclosures protect electronics from dust, rain, and water immersion. Devices withstand Australian summers, tropical humidity, and mining site dust without failure.

  • Rugged, sealed enclosure for outdoor installations
  • Designed for dust, rain, and harsh worksite conditions
  • Built to handle vibration and vehicle-mounted use cases

Movement and geofence alerts

Instant notifications when assets move unexpectedly or leave approved sites. Accelerometer triggers detect motion and wake the device for real-time location updates.

  • Motion detection with configurable sensitivity
  • Geofence breach alerts via SMS, email, and dashboard
  • Scheduled location updates during business hours

Long-range connectivity

4G LTE and NB-IoT connectivity options keep assets visible in metro areas and remote regions. Satellite backup available for assets operating beyond mobile coverage.

  • 4G LTE-M and NB-IoT nationwide coverage
  • Satellite connectivity for remote mining and outback sites
  • Multi-network SIM cards for maximum coverage

How asset trackers work.

Asset tracking ROI by the numbers.

GPS tracking delivers measurable returns through theft recovery, improved utilisation, and reduced replacement costs.

69%

GPS recovery rate

69% of stolen vehicles and equipment with GPS tracking are recovered, compared to just 20% without.

15%

Utilisation improvement

Fleets increase asset utilisation by 10-15% after installing trackers, reducing the need for new equipment purchases.

10-20

Years of operation

Ultra-long battery life eliminates the need for frequent site visits, saving maintenance time and labour costs.

Asset tracker FAQ

Common questions about battery GPS trackers for Australian fleets.

Battery life depends on reporting intervals and device configuration. Devices set to report once per day can last 10-20 years on a single battery. Hourly reporting provides 7-10 years of battery life. Movement-triggered reporting balances battery life with real-time visibility.

Battery GPS trackers work on any unpowered asset: trailers, shipping containers, generators, compressors, pumps, scaffolding, light towers, portable buildings, and agricultural equipment. Magnetic mounts suit metal surfaces; bolt mounts work on any material.

Standard 4G LTE trackers rely on mobile networks and work across most populated areas. For remote mining sites, outback stations, and offshore locations, satellite-enabled trackers provide global coverage. Devices store location data when out of range and upload when connectivity returns.

Installation takes 2-5 minutes per asset. Magnetic models attach directly to clean metal surfaces. Bolt-mount models require four mounting holes. No wiring, no external power, and no specialist tools needed. Ctrack offers professional installation services for large fleets.

Yes. Configure geofence boundaries around depots and approved sites. When an asset leaves the geofenced area, you receive instant SMS and email alerts with GPS coordinates. Movement detection triggers alerts when assets move unexpectedly after hours, improving theft recovery rates.

The Ctrack dashboard sends low-battery alerts weeks before the battery depletes. Most models use field-replaceable battery packs you can swap in minutes without tools. Ctrack can schedule battery replacement visits for large fleets to keep your entire asset inventory online.
