Description
Product Overview
This compact DAE WSC500A RF Converter operates at 915 MHz and interfaces via RS485 to enable seamless wireless data transmission from water or electricity meters to cloud-based systems. Designed for integration with the DAE Wireless Cloud Metering Solutions, it allows remote monitoring of usage without physical wiring. The device is FCC certified (Ref. No. VTN0035A/2020) and compatible with CC2030 gateways to send data through Ethernet to the DAE server. Ideal for retrofitting older buildings or hard-to-reach locations where cabling is impractical.
Usage
Best suited for commercial and industrial applications requiring wireless metering solutions, especially in environments with limited access to wiring infrastructure. Common use cases include retrofitting existing buildings where electric meters are near panels but gateways are close to routers or network hubs. It supports both water and electricity monitoring via DAE AMR Series meters and is compatible with the CC2030 gateway for cloud-based data collection. Indoor use only; outdoor applications require the optional B1725 watertight enclosure.
