Automatic Meter Reading (Electricity, Gas, Water, etc)
Using a Multi input/ouput or RS232/RS485 board, metering devices from various suppliers can be interconnected. Meters can be linked to concentrators to allow suppliers to have remote access to each individual meter, to read or write information such as rates, pre-paid amounts, current and cumulative counts, tampering detection, etc. Meters and/or concentrators can also be used along with a Remote LCD devices to replicate and distribute their information to one or more points located anywhere on the electrical network.
"We spent quite some time using, or trying to use many other available technologies offered around the world, and - after so many disappointments, we have found a robust and yet simple implementation from Ariane Controls that allowed a very quick and successful product development, when compared to the others evaluated. In many markets, PLC technology has been treated either as a high-end, high-cost solution, or, as in most cases, a low-profile technology compared to other medias. Ariane Controls have addressed this situation with a new approach, creating an affordable solution combined with a vision that will promote usage of power-lines in ways that may change how we live our daily lives. We appreciate that!" Welson Jacometti, CEO, CAS Tecnologia, BR
