Power Line Carrier(PLC) Modem and Automatic Meter Reading (AMR) Data Concentrator Unit
 
Passed the inspection of China's Electric Power Science Research Institute, registration number is CGZ086-2j
Use of Ethernet LAN/ Internet for Remote Meter Reading and Data Management
Support all functions (data reading, time-triggered operation and management) of the Archnet AMR system
Able to transmit data to higher level hosts station through PTSN and GSM network (or any other RS-232 standard communication facilities and channels)
Standard RS-232 interface which facilitates site debugging and data checking
Communicate with lower level Meter Interface Unit (MIU) and Multi-channel Meter Interface Unit (MMIU) using power line
Able to issue broadcast commands simultaneously through all 3 phases of R, Y and B.
All commands have clock-adjusting function
Absolute industrial grade PC and modem warrant against failure under harsh operating conditions
Large capacity solid-state disk to store all types of data. This will help to reduce the frequency of connections to host station and increase the efficiency of each connection. This is especially imperative in practical application where an extensive automatic metering network is deployed. The host station may not be able to communicate frequently with every Data Concentrator Unit (DCU) . This requires each DCU to store large amount of data to reduce the load of the host station.
Three-phase power supply ensures the system to operate well even when any 2 phases are cut off
Check the voltage levels of 3 phases automatically. The time and duration of all blackouts and disruptions of any phases is logged. It is able to perform self-diagnosis and monitor the working conditions of MIU and MMIU . It is able to record and report any abnormalities to the higher level host station
Alternative of metallic and plastic casing, both of which can be lead-fused. Fire resistance and electric insulation of the casing measure up the national standards
