PDC-Communication Module
for the integration of meters with pulse outputs in radio systems
The PulseDataCapture module is optimal for the integration of measuring instruments with pulse output in radio reading systems. The consumption data of water-, energy heat-, gas-, oil- and other electricity meters with pulse output can be transferred by means of this gateway wireless to a wM-bus receiver or in an LPWA-network.
The gateway is battery powered. The battery lifetime is depending on the version, the transmission interval and the ambient conditions and and can reach up to 12 years.
