IoT sensor for connected pulse counters

PULSE

Make all your meters communicating

This sensor, which can be configured on NB-IoT or LTE-Cat-M1 networks, enables you to read and analyse consumption data from your water or electricity meters to help you save energy.

It can also be used to count the number of cycles of a piece of equipment, so you can plan its maintenance in advance.

This wireless sensor is designed for easy connection to electricity, water or heat meters, or any other equipment with a pulse output.

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE CELLULAR IOT SENSOR

Designed and manufactured in France
Worldwide cellular compatibility
Multi-platform integration using LwM2M and MQTTS standards
Up to 15 years of autonomy with standard configuration
2 configurable pulse inputs to connect 1 or 2 meters or equipment with pulse output (dry contact, REED, S0 relay or open collector).
Configuration via NFC
This IoT sensor is available in LoRaWAN and Sigfox versions.
