For tools, pallets, rental kit, and small equipment where a full-size asset tracker is too much hardware. The FC-111 is a palm-sized IP67 unit on a replaceable 8 Ah primary lithium pack — snap it on, and leave it.
The FC-111 is built for the assets nobody wants to visit: it has no charging port to keep dry and no panel to keep clean. A 8 Ah primary lithium pack does the work, and when it is finally spent you swap the pack, not the tracker.
A 8 Ah primary lithium pack with deep-sleep draw under 15 µA. Battery life depends on how often the asset reports — tell us the interval and we will size it with you.
The battery is a replaceable pack on a quick connector. When it runs down, swap the pack and the same tracker goes back to work.
92.5 × 39.5 × 25.5 mm and 150 g (5.29 oz). It fits where a full-size asset tracker will not — inside a frame rail, under a lid, behind a panel.
GPS and GLONASS with WAAS, EGNOS and MSAS correction, better than 2.5 m CEP, and a hot start under one second.
Snaps onto a magnetic mount for steel, or a screw-fix plate for everything else. One of the two is required — pick it when you order.
Dust-tight and rated for 30 minutes at one metre of immersion, and rated from −20 °C to +80 °C.
A built-in 3-axis accelerometer wakes the tracker on motion, so a parked asset stays asleep and a moving one reports.
Low-battery alerts arrive in iMatrix Cloud ahead of time, so a pack swap is a planned visit and not a search.

The FC-111 snaps onto a mount rather than bolting down directly, so every unit needs one of the two mounts below.
Snap-on mount with two magnets for steel surfaces, and screw holes as a backup. Fits FC-111 and FC-113.
$14.95
Part number: FC-111-MNT-MAG
Snap-on plate that screws to wood, plastic, or aluminium. Fits FC-111 and FC-113.
$4.95
Part number: FC-111-MNT-PLT
Long-life replacement pack with a 3-pin quick connector. Swap it in the field and redeploy the tracker.
$17.95
Part number: FC-111-BAT-8
Micro-USB cable for bench setup before deployment.
$4.95
Part number: FC-1XX-PGM-USB
Welders, pumps, compressors, and kit that walks off a site. Small enough to mount out of sight.
Construction →Daily check-ins on pooled assets that leave the dock and need to come back.
Asset tracking →Know which yard, which customer, and whether it moved — on equipment too small to justify a wired install.
GPS tracking →The unit is yours outright — no loaner program, no three-year term, no early-termination clause. Contact us for volume pricing. Both tiers include iMatrix Cloud, the EdgeUplink eSIM, and US-based support.
By a field-replaceable 8 Ah primary lithium pack. It is not rechargeable: when the pack is spent you fit a new one (FC-111-BAT-8, $17.95) and redeploy the same tracker.
Yes. The FC-111 snaps onto a mount, so each unit needs either the magnetic mount (FC-111-MNT-MAG, $14.95) or the screw-fix mounting plate (FC-111-MNT-PLT, $4.95).
Battery capacity and case height. The FC-111 has an 8 Ah pack and is 25.5 mm tall; the FC-113 has a 19 Ah pack and is 43.5 mm tall. Electronics, footprint, mounts, and plans are the same.
$69.00 for the hardware, plus a plan: Locate at $7.99 per month or Track at $11.99 per month. There is no contract.
The FC-111 is a North America release. Every plan includes the iMatrix EdgeUplink eSIM with Zone 2 (North America) connectivity.
