Pulse and Encoder MDTs

PulseGraphic

Overview

The Pulse MDT records data from meters that generate a pulse output and transmits the totalizer data via radio towards the DCAP every hour. It is compatible with nearly all water, gas and electric utility meters that use a reed switch or a piezoelectric pulse generator. The MDT is available either with a single pulse input for single meter usage or dual inputs for co-located hot and cold water meters or other two-meter combinations.

The Encoder MDT has a true encoder interface that directly reads the meter face of encoded meters to transmit an absolute reading towards the DCAP every hour. It auto-detects the data format between Sensus meters, Sensus compatible meters (Master-Meter, Badger, ets.), and Neptune meters. The MDT is available either with a single encoded input for single meter or dual encoded for co-located hot and cold water meters. A special Pulse + Encoder Dual is also available.
