IoT application with remote optical readings of power meters
- Regular remote power consumption readings (15min-24h intervals) with sending data, seamless installation
- Analysis of energy consumption
- energy savings
- dynamic advance invoicing
- dynamic tarrifications
- Monitoring the utilization of machines and equipment
- Monitoring other parameters from power meters
- Communication over the nationwide IoT LPWAN networks: SIGFOX or NB-IoT
SENSECOM-OMD
Key features
- Remote power meters reading (electricity meter OBIS registers) using the IEC62056-21 optical head
- Absolutely easy installation (magnetic attachement)
- More than 10 years without battery replacement with one reading per day
- Version with 3 types of antenna terminals (center, left or right)
- Possible connection to the SENSECOM-WSH repeater in SIGFOX for approx. 20 m for hard-to-reach places
- Broadcasting to the SIGFOX nationwide network
- Data available in SENSEPARAM portal
Models
- OMD
- universal mode with the possibility of setting up to 13 read registers
- reading interval 24h, minimum 15min for 1 register or 10min * number of registers (10min message intervals)
- OMD – E
- energy mode with fixed 4 registers (consumption in two tariffs, supply, electricity meter number)
- reading interval 24h, minimum 1h
- antenna conector orientation:
- OMD-(E)C…Central
- OMD-(E)L…Left
- OMD-(E)R…Right
Note: This is not a pulse reading of the flashing metrology LED. The IEC62056-21 optical head reads data over the optical serial link directly from the meter registers. Most billing power meters are equipped with this interface (typically in the form of a target with a round aperture or a round dent with a pair of small apertures, usually below or next to the display).
