Description
AMR data logger for diaphragm gas meters with a built-in IoT LTE Cat.M1, NB-IoT, 2G module. The main purpose of this data logger is to transmit information about registered gas consumption and alarm states to the data collection system. Device allows integration into the local Building Management System (BMS) and control of tariff power usage. Our gas data logger is named MacR8 and is designed to operate in Zone 2
hazardous areas (available version of the device designed for operation in zone 0 hazardous areas – MacR6-Z0-V).
About MacR8 Gas Logger
