Wireless energy management

Radio-Tech

Wireless telemetry specialist Radio-Tech has developed an energy-management system using the company’s wireless data-capture technology to provide 24/7 monitoring of remote assets and consumption of water, electricity and gas. Retrofittable pulse transmitters have a range of 2 km, or 12 km with a repeater. They can be used in the UK on Radio-Tech’s exclusively licensed 153.100 MHz band. Receivers are available to interface transmitters with existing building-management systems.

The hardware has a 10-year battery life and will output to Radio-Tech’s own or third-party software.
