Ecosafe
Radio-Tech’s Ecosafe transmitter is an ATEX certified pulse transmitter for use in hazardous area applications such as gas. ATEX is the name given to the framework for controlling potentially explosive atmospheres.
Once installed, the Ecosafe transmitter counts the pulses from the meter and transmits them at periodic intervals to the RT:Wi5 Data Concentrator or other Radio-Tech receivers.
Once connected to the meter, the Ecosafe transmitter can be easily mounted using a small bracket which can be attached anywhere near the meter. For hazardous area applications such as gas metering there is an ATEX certified version.
Operational
In operation the transmitter accumulates and stores the pulses output from meter pulse head or reed switch and transmits or “chirps” the total in a secure data packet along with a status and unique ID address at regular intervals.
Waterproofing is guaranteed through an encapsulation technique performed during manufacturing. This allows the transmitter to be installed in inhospitable areas such as meter pits or service shafts without harmful effects to performance
Supplied on all operating frequencies, Ecosafe can be used in small local area networks on 434MHz or 869MHz. For larger or rural applications Ecosafe transmitters are available on 153MHz and 169 MHz.
Radio-Tech’s Ecosafe transmitters are simple to deploy, cost-effective and easy to use.
