The Clam RTU connects compatible external sensors to Clamnet so that additional measurements can be reviewed alongside HydraClam and ChloroClam data. Sensor selection, interface support and power demand are agreed for the application.

Function

Datalogger for low-power sensors used in the water and environmental sector

Sensor interface

RS485, multiple sensors at a single location Contact us to discuss your sensor choice and its viability.

Power

Battery, low-power operation for extended remote deployment.

External power options also available.

Communications

Bi-directional 4G for configuration, upload and alarming; WIT device for local communication

Enclosure

IP68 rated (1m, 1hr+)

Tested in laboratory conditions for >24hrs however continous submersion is not warrantied and will reduce data connection performance

Control

In-built relay for activating external devices from sensor trigger levels

Why it exists

A programme designed around decisions rather than catalogues will sometimes need a parameter we do not make an instrument for.

The RTU means a site can be instrumented with the right sensor rather than the available one, and still report to Clamnet on the same timeline, with the same identifiers and the same data-quality flags as everything else.
