Remote Monitoring System

Remote Monitoring System

Remote monitoring system that collects 4–20 mA sensor signals at remote monitoring units (RMU) and sends them to a central server over SMS, GPRS/Edge/3G or Wi-Fi, with a 2.8-inch touch display on each RMU and a DOE query manager.

Overview

About the Remote Monitoring System.

This remote monitoring system links field sensors to a central monitoring server. Each remote monitoring unit (RMU) reads 4–20 mA sensor signals and sends the data to the server by SMS, by GPRS, Edge or 3G, or over Wi-Fi, depending on the RMU version. The server software includes a manager program for each communication route and a DOE query manager, and the layout shows the link onward to the DOE server for emission reporting. Each RMU has a 2.8-inch touch display that shows 24-hour trends and is used to configure the unit locally.

Features

  • RMU inputs: 4–20 mA, single-ended, 12-bit, non-isolated (isolated model available)
  • RMU versions for SMS, GPRS/Edge/3G and Wi-Fi communication
  • GSM modem included (SIM card not included)
  • 2.8-inch touch TFT showing 24-hour measured values as a graph, with channels shown in turn
  • Touch configuration of 4–20 mA scale, unit of measure, graph screen changing time, GSM/GPRS/Edge/3G/Wi-Fi settings and connection status

How it works

  • Sensors with 4–20 mA outputs connect to the RMU
  • The RMU sends data by SMS, GPRS/Edge/3G or Wi-Fi to the main remote monitoring server
  • Server programs: main remote monitoring server software, SMS Manager, GPRS Manager, TCP Manager and DOE Query Manager
  • Server hardware, operating system and backup are supplied by the user

Applications

  • Remote monitoring of 4–20 mA field instruments
  • Emission monitoring sites reporting to the DOE server
