8 Channel pulse counter allows water, gas, heat and other utility meters to be monitored. Multiple pulse counters can be used and as they are Modbus enabled they can be distributed around the factory, plant room or offices.
The IDC master unit can be linked to IDC pulse counters and to Modbus enabled electricity and heat meters. The master unit can also communicate with approved billing and CoP5 meters such as Premier and the Elster A1700 and collect data from outlying pulse meters via radio transmitters and a radio receiver module.
Data Collection Software can be installed on a server or we can host the software on our secure server on your behalf. For small quantities of meters our bureau service provides half hour CSV data and a number of standard profile and other reports.
