MOBILTEX has launched GCRTech PFL1 Moveable Strain/Circulate Knowledge Logger for water utilities trade. Based mostly on the field-proven design of the GCRTech PTRI/TRI information logger, MOBILTEX has additional enhanced the gadget to ship resolution for area seize of vital strain and stream information for water utility operators.
Knowledge logging is important for water utilities to report parameters for strain and stream throughout the water community by interfacing with widespread trade stream meters and sensors to allow community administration. Visibility of district-metered areas (DMAs) mixed with community fashions, strain surveys, shopper stream monitoring and reservoir depth calculations all imply water firms are capable of make knowledgeable choices that can lead to a discount in the price of community possession. With extra information comes elevated perception and in the end elevated worth.
The utterly up to date PFL1 vary of information loggers utilises MOBILTEX’s patented information logging structure that enables the person to watch strain/stream inputs in a large number of configurations, offering final flexibility to fulfill utility necessities. The PFL1 non-volatile reminiscence organises every information file as an unbiased information logger report with its personal begin/cease time, pattern charge, and logging charge.
The reminiscence register dimension is designed to be able to accommodate overflows related to excessive pulse charges on stream inputs. Strain measurement accuracy is optimised utilizing multi-point calibration and logged information may be recalibrated earlier than, throughout or after the recording by recalibrating the strain transducer to the logger.
Some purposes for the GCRTech PFL1 embrace leakage flow-monitoring; fireplace stream testing /C-factor testing; strain/PRV monitoring; hydraulic community evaluation; strain surge detection; minimal night time stream evaluation; and low-pressure investigations.
A few of the key options of the PI-1 embrace:
- One to a few selectable channels (2 Circulate/1 Strain) Inside & exterior strain sensor configs obtainable
- 2 MB Flash non-volatile reminiscence organised into 6 separate information information 60,000 readings every, and a pair of separate information information 250,000 readings every
- Knowledge is retained for 10 years if battery energy fails
- Configurable sampling charge: 1 second to fifteen minutes
- Configurable logging charge: 5 seconds to 24 hours
- Logged information sorts: Common, instantaneous, minimal, most
- Circulate logging modes: Pulse, occasion, pulse interval timing
- Communications: IrDA baud charge of 115,200 Baud
- Fully waterproof and submersible (IP68)
- Battery life > 5 years underneath regular operation
“The improved GCRTech PFL1 launch is an thrilling milestone for GCRTech and represents the approaching evolution for your entire GCRTech portfolio. Discipline technicians within the water utilities house now can simply and precisely seize strain/stream information in even essentially the most excessive places utilizing a compact, intelligently engineered resolution that’s light-weight, extremely sturdy and likewise delivers the real-world runtimes that area engineers require,” says Marc Bracken, MOBILTEX CEO.
