Rain gauge on the shed. Probes in the soil. Canopy sensor in the orchard. EC inline, water level in the dam, generator in the corner — all reporting to the 4Gee Telemetry Unit, all visible on your phone.
Nobody else in the South African market builds the whole picture. We do, because we design and manufacture every piece ourselves.
Every Gentick product starts as a PCB layout in our workshop and ends up in a field — in South Africa, across Africa, in Chile, New Zealand, and with our Australian partners since 2021. PCB design, firmware, enclosures, software: all in-house. When you call about a sensor, you're talking to the people who built it.
The industrial cellphone that runs the show.
Self-tipping, on your phone.
The root zone, quantified.
VPD, frost and heat, inside the crop.
Fertiliser concentration, continuously.
Know your water before you need it.
Fuel, battery, run-hours, remotely.
The 4Gee plays well with others: Aquacheck, Sentek, Enviropro, Greenshield, EC-5 Decagon and more. Upgrade your telemetry without replacing what's in the ground.
The industrial cellphone for your farm.
That's genuinely what it is: a battery-powered, weatherproof, 4G-connected unit that reads your sensors and reports them reliably — designed and built in South Africa for African conditions, proven in Australian ones.
Plays well with the probes you own. Aquacheck, Sentek, Enviropro, Greenshield, Hydrawize, EC-5 Decagon and more connect via RS485/SDI12. Two probes per unit, simultaneously — plus two pulse counters for a rain gauge and a flow meter at the same time.
Rainfall data you don't have to walk to.
Our self-tipping rain gauge measures every shower and sends it straight to your phone. No manual emptying, no guesswork, no "how much did you get on your side?" — just accurate rainfall, logged and graphed, farm by farm.
From R3,500.

Irrigation decisions are easy when you can see what the roots see. Our soil moisture probe measures relative moisture in the critical root zone, so you irrigate when the crop needs it — not when the calendar says so.
Works as part of the ecosystem. Pair it with the Inline-EC sensor and a flow meter on the 4Gee, and you're not just watering — you're managing water and fertiliser as one system.
Request a quoteWeather data from inside the crop, not beside it.
A weather station tells you what's happening above the orchard. The Gentick Canopy Sensor tells you what's happening in it: temperature and humidity inside the gill-screen housing, plus an outside temperature — enough to calculate vapour pressure deficit and act on it.
Expensive fertiliser deserves continuous measurement.
One faulty fertigation cycle can set a crop back weeks. The Gentick Inline-EC sensor continuously plots the concentration of salts and fertiliser in your irrigation water — and raises the alarm on your phone before the hair roots pay for it.
Know your water before you need it.
Irrigation timing is one of the biggest calls a farm manager makes, and it starts with one question: how much water do I actually have? Our water level sensor reports dam, reservoir and tank levels straight to your phone — live, logged, and alarmed.
Know your generator is ready — before the power goes.
The Montick-4G watches your existing diesel generator so you don't have to: fuel level, battery voltage, run/stop status, run hours, alarms — reported to the cloud every 7 minutes and pushed to your phone.
One generator or a fleet. Sortable fleet view, fuel and battery graphs, monthly runtime reports — spot the site where run-hours and fuel use don't add up, and the battery charger that's about to fail. Made in Africa for the African environment — and for African load-shedding.
