Choose Sensaphone,
the premiere remote monitoring system when you want to monitor pipelines
and storage facilities. Know about leaks, power failures, combustion
the moment they occur. Record and log flow rates. Receive reports.
Control valves and switches. Choose the Sensaphone model that offers
the features you need for your facilities.
Temperature: All Sensaphone models above can monitor for temperature. The SCADA 3000 offers 16 universal inputs for 10K thermistors,
as well as an additional Thermocouple module capable of monitoring
extreme temperatures. The Express II's inputs (8 inputs are
standard but you may have as many as 40) are universal and can be
configured to accept four different kinds of analog thermistors:
2.8K F, 2.8K C, 10K F, or 10K C; high and low limits are user programmable.
The Sensaphone 2000's eight universal inputs will accept
both 2.8K and 10K thermistors with user-configured limits.
Pressure Levels: SCADA 3000, Express II, 2000, and 1800 accept sensors
which can be configured to monitor pressure. All three offer universal
inputs that can all be configured as 4-20mA (to measure current)
or 0-5V for any pressure gauge sensor that puts out from 0 to 5
volts. SCADA 3000 offers PID algorithmic control functions
to monitor and maintain pressures. The Sensaphone 2000 offers
Data Logging, downloadable Event Logging, Graphing and Polling to
keep you informed of pressures. It can store over 32,000 input readings.
Power Failure: The four Sensaphone models above monitor for power failure. The Express II can use Dry Contact (N.O./N.C.) sensors and comes
with a Gel-cell rechargeable backup battery to provide 6-12 hours
of backup operation. The Sensaphone 2000 monitors AC power
in addition to its 8 universal inputs. It includes a compartment
for 6 Nickel-Cadmium batteries to provide 10-15 hours of backup.
Input status is viewable with the free Manager software accompanying
the 2000.
Flow Rates: SCADA 3000, Express II, Sensaphone 2000 and 1800 accept 4-20mA sensors that can be attached to analog flow meters,
and 0-5V transducers, which can themselves be flow meters. SCADA
3000 comes with Gas Flow functions built-in and offers a Real-Time
Screen builder. Express II, in addition to 4-20 mA and 0-5V,
can be configured for Pulse Count sensors. A typical pulse count
sensor is a flow meter utilizing a turbine to measure flow by accumulating
pulses. Maximum pulse rate for this configuration is 1Hz. Sensaphone
2000 allows monitoring of flow meters in real-time graphical
form using bars, gauge or contact status forms.
Smoke &
Fire and Other Alarms: Any
equipment provided with a dry contact output can send an alarm to
a Sensaphone.
High and low alarm limits are programmable in the SCADA 3000, Sensaphone 2000 and Sensaphone1800. The Express
II includes a built-in microphone allowing you to listen in
to sound levels on site. You can program the unit to respond with
an alarm when sound levels exceed a normal level.
