Aquaread Point Green Telemetry

Description

Aquaread Point Green Telemetry is a compact Logger/RTU device with an integrated battery, a 3G modem with GPRS fallback, internal and/or external antenna, digital and counter inputs, Modbus and SDI-12 master capability, and a submersion sensor.

Point Green provides real-time remote monitoring of up to 3 sensors. It includes support for digital and counter inputs. The Point Green can also communicate with third-party serial devices over Modbus (using RS232 and RS485) or SDI-12. In addition to the multiple configuration options, Point Green offers local monitoring of battery voltage, cellular signal strength, and ambient temperature.

The RTU offers a plug-and-play solution that minimizes the need for additional site visits, with remote management functions including remote firmware upgrades enabling associated cost-savings. It can store thousands of records in memory for later retrieval by SCADA systems.

The Point Green was designed from the outset as a self-contained, low-cost fit-and-forget unit for use in harsh and hazardous environments in remote locations. Its design exploits mainstream technologies which help to minimize costs whilst at the same time ensuring reliability and a long product life.

The latest developments in low-power technology are used, allowing Point Green to derive all the power it needs (including sensor power, if required) from an internal battery pack. This, together with an integral 3G modem, ensures a long service life with low infrastructure costs.
