Metering Data Transceiver
The MAX Range Pulse MDT can transmit the meter pulse count three to four times further than the Tehama Standard Range MDT within buildings. Its usage allows for far fewer or even zero Repeaters for faster system installations and is ideal for manufactured housing or multifamily properties with limited Repeater installation locations.
The MAX Range Pulse MDT records data from meters that generate a pulse output and transmits the totalizer count via radio towards the DCAP hourly. It is compatible with nearly all water, gas and electric utility meters that use a reed switch or a piezoelectric pulse generator.
The Tehama MAX Range MDTs have a ten-mile open field range, powered by two AA batteries for expected battery life from five to seven years.
The MDT is available either with a single pulse input for single meter usage or dual inputs for co-located hot and cold water meters or other two-meter combinations.
Other variations and features are available such as:
- Top-of-the-hour synchronize Time of Use (ToU) with 15-minute interval data
- Generated Pulse version for older Hersey and newer Zenner meters
- IP-68 rated Submersible version for pit or outdoor installation
- Integrated Remote Display version, California approved
