IoT Wireless AC Current Monitor

Published on : Tuesday 30-11--0001

Introducing NCD’s Long Range IoT AC Current Monitor. Ideal for reading currents between 0 and 100A, and reporting changes over a configurable threshold. Boasting up to a 28 Mile range, and a wireless mesh networking architecture, this sensor transmits lux data at user-defined intervals, sleeping in between to maximize battery life.

Powered by just 2 AA batteries and an operational lifetime of 500,000 wireless transmissions, a 10 year battery life can be achieved with proper calibration.  Optionally, this sensor may be externally powered.

An open communication protocol allows easy integration with just about any control system or gateway.  Data can be transmitted to a PC, Raspberry Pi, or even an Arduino, and sent on to Microsoft Azure®, AWS or Google Cloud Platform. Wireless transmission settings can be changed using the open communication protocol providing maximum configurability depending on the intended application.

The long range, price, accuracy, battery life and security features of our Wireless AC Current Sensor make it an ideal choice to start, or expand, your own wireless sensor network using a device which exceeds the requirements for most of the industrial as well as consumer market applications.

Features:

• AC Current Range 0-100A
• Configurable Current change detection thresholds
• Superior LOS Range of up to 28 miles with High-Gain Antennas
• Wireless Mesh Networking using DigiMesh®
• Open Communication Protocol for Custom Interface Applications
• Small Form Factor Wireless Sensor (3×3 inch)
