Metron 2

Metron 2

Its primary means of communication is using the GSM phone networks. It is a fully quad band enabled design, allowing it to communicate using SMS and GPRS data worldwide. It integrates GPS, an accelerometer, a temperature sensor, a large data logging memory, USB 2.0 connectivity, an integral antenna and capacitive buttons. Pluggable terminals allow ease of wiring and an expansion slot allows future applications to be accommodated. It can be powered from the internal battery (for up to 5 years) or externally from any 6-24V DC supply. All of this functionality is wrapped up in a single IP67 rated enclosure measuring a tiny 138 x 75 x 68mm.

Integral Programmable Processor allowing you to provide scaling information as well as tag names & units of measure, either locally or remotely. You can also program how often the unit takes readings, how often it transmits, alarm thresholds and phone numbers.
