MultiTrode's Remote Reservoir Monitor (MTRRM) is a device used to transmit the level and I/O data from a reservoir to a Pump Station at a different location. The remote Pump Station consists of a MonitorPro and MT2PC/MT3PC. The MonitorPro receives data from the MTRRM and regularly updates the MT2PC/MT3PC.
Features
-
Seamlessly connects water reservoirs to Pump Stations via radio or LAN
-
Designed for applications with no SCADA
-
Unique failsafe feature with SCADA application.
-
If the SCADA fails for any reason, the Pump Stations and reservoir communicate directly until the SCADA is back on line
-
Level indication at the reservoir is also mimicked at the remote Pump Station
-
Additional Inputs and Outputs available for valves and other control and/or monitoring devices
The MTRRM has two analog inputs (one required for level device), one analog output, six digital inputs, three digital outputs and an input for monitoring the DC supply voltage. It can link to the Pump Station via a SCADA system, or in a stand-alone configuration. In a SCADA network, the CMF (Central Monitoring Facility) typically makes the decisions on activation of pumps.
When the CMF is not operational for any reason, the MTRRM and remote Pump Station sense this and transmit in a peer-to-peer configuration, increasing water supply reliability. When the MTRRM detects that the SCADA system is running again, it will revert back to normal operation via the CMF.
The MTRRM can also be used as a forwarding site for messages from SCADA to other units. This is useful for getting information to sites that cannot communicate directly with the SCADA system.
