One-Way Meter Unit
This unit, named RTU, is a one-way unit, reading and transmitting data
over the power lines (PLC).
RTU - Remote Transmitter Unit.
The RTU is installed at consumers' premises, inside or
outside the existing meter, electromechanical, static (electronic),
single & Polly phase. The unit counts the meter's disc revolutions,
transforming it into power consumption. It transmits accumulated consumption
data, along with additional data, to the central unit - the concentrator
- via the Power Lines.
Two different types of RTUs for different applications are available:
One-Way Meter Unit
One-Way Prepayment Unit
Features:
- Real one-way Power Line Communication
(PLC).
- Periodically transmits all accumulated data and status
to the concentrator.
- Visual indication of proper operation.
- Optical port for reading and programming.
- Directly energized by the power lines.
- Low power consumption.
- Non volatile backup memory.
- Small physical dimensions.
- Stand alone unit.
- Low Cost.
Features:
- Adaptable to any existing Watt-hour
meter.
- Reads optically the electro-mechanic meter's disc
revolutions.
- Calculates consumption based on the constant of the
meter.
- Multi-tariff schemes supported by the central concentrator.
- Reports reverse revolutions of the meter's
disc.
- One or three phase configurations are available.
- Simple and fast installation.
