Battery Powered Wireless Transmitter (Outdoor Use)
Halytech Wireless Transmitter, WTX-OB, is a wireless input expansion module for the Halytech Spider. It is ideal for utility meter monitoring in new and existing industrial, commercial, highrise and residential applications.
The WTX-OB:
- connects to up to 4 pulse meters with tamper detection
- monitors water, gas and electricity meters
- is compatible with electronic meters
- communicates with a Spider via a low power wireless network
- has a wireless range of up to 1 km
- uses repeaters to extend range
- is battery powered (user replaceable - around 5 years life)
