MTR Smart Grid Products - Overview & Various Deployment Options
MTR
is set to emerge as the Smart Grid solutions forerunner with its range of
specialized applications. The company is forging its key market position with
the development of highly innovative two-way radio enabled remote terminal units
that deliver, ease of-use, client end-point management, seamless base station
gateway integration, scalability and full control capabilities.
Remote
Terminal Unit [RTU]
- Stand Alone
|
Universal Smart Grid two-way
RF unit, delivering robust and secure "Last-Mile" communication.
Monitor, command
& control in software from a remotely located utility control center:
-
Applications cover Water, Gas,
Electric
& control grids
enabling the overlay of existing
infrastructure with state-of-the-art smart grid data communications technology
-
The RTU telemetering assembly can be connected to any AMR
capable meter or sensor [That delivers a pulse signal].
RTU Install Options
|
|
 |

|

|
|
Single RTU servicing a single
water meter end point.
Robust and durable
solution typically offering 20 year battery life |
Single RTU servicing a single
gas meter end point.
Robust and durable
solution typically offering 20 year battery life |
Single RTU servicing 1,
2, 3 or 4 meter end points. These can be all water, gas, electric
meters or any combination. The ideal solution in multi dwelling applications with clustered
meters. |
Remote
Terminal Unit - With Solenoid Valve/Switch control
[RTUV]
|
The
RTUV provides a totally secure solution to both monitoring
and control of service. In software the valve or switch can control
service by time and/or consumption. This enables
complete software control from a remote location of:
Any
tampering with the wire connecting the meter [Including magnetic
interference] will result in closure of the valve or switch and flag a tampering alert in
the software at the control center |

Repeater Unit
[RPU]
|
Repeater
units, requiring external power, can be installed to manage the two-way RF communications
between as many as 1000 RTU and the BSU.
With 1.5 km NLOS range and +10 km LOS
range these units have the ability to inexpensively extend the rage
of the fixed LAN deployment |
Repeater
units can be supplied with integral solar power and rechargeable battery
pack for installations without available external power supply.
The Units are designed for easy & simple
mounting on wall or pole with the solar panel specifically set to meet
the optimal conditions of the specific installation location. |
Base Station
Unit [BSU] - Fixed Point
Gateway
The BSU
manages a LAN of as many as 10 Repeater Units [RPU] and an almost
unlimited number of RTU transceivers and provides a fixed point WAN
communications gateway with a utilities remotely located administrative,
management & control center.
MTR Wireless
Communication technological edge rests with the systems Base Station
Units [BSUs] ability to manage two-way wireless communications
between a Local Area Network [LAN] of thousands of Remote Terminal
Units [RTUs] and a Utilities Administrative, management and control,
center. |
Base
Station units can be supplied with integral solar power and rechargeable
battery pack for installations without available external power supply.
The Units are designed for easy & simple
mounting on wall or pole with the solar panel specifically set to meet
the optimal conditions of the specific installation location. |
- In-Home Display Unit
[IHD]
-

Every
installed RTU connection can include the remote installation of our
In-Home Display unit.
The consumer now has
access real time data drawn directly from their meter. The consumer no
longer has to visit their meter to take a reading and then make
involved calculations relative to current consumption.
Empowering the consumer while reducing the service call demands on
the utility. |
