An example of a recent installation included a robust remote sensor, outstation and communications package contained on the site of the sensor, connected to a PSTN line. A solar panel was mounted above harm’s way, ensuring against battery failure at the most important time. System benefits were:

  • Proven technology
  • Vandal and weather resistant unit
  • Self-charging (minimal danger of power failure)
  • Multi-level alarm signals
  • Low maintenance
  • Scalable system to handle additional sensors and outstations
  • Capable of remote water-level monitoring
