Product detailed description

SENSECOM-OMN-E

Reads-out consumption data from Power Meter or other metering device using optical reading interface defined by IEC 62056-21 mode C. Active tariff registers are automatically detected (consumptions, event. supply) within few readings, read and sent periodically. Data are sent via LPWAN nationwide NB-IoT network using built-in antenna. Please check NB-IoT network coverage at your location prior purchase and buy NB-IoT SIM and subscription (not included in this option, select different model if needed.

Battery

Powered byLiPol battery with occasional recharging via USB-C connector (charger is not included).  Endurance ~1 year to the next recharging (e.g. 4 registers, 15min readouts, data sent 8x a day). The device can also be permanently powered via USB-C or recharged from a power bank for uninterrupted use.

SEAMLESS installation

using just magnet attachment - no screws, just hang on the meter after charging (automatically switches on when fully charged). Check that your meter type is equipped with an IEC62056-21 optical interface that does not require push-button activation of the communication and that the communication is accessible without password protection. 

Data transmission

Data can be transmitted over NB-IoT at each reading or collected and sent at less frequent intervals to save battery use. You can limit the number of times data is sent by not sending values that have not changed. A suitable numerical order can be set for comparing changes in values to filter out.

Billing power meters application

The use of SENSECOM-OMN-E on billing meters may be restricted by the energy distributor. The SENSECOM-OMN-E model with a limited set of registers (consumption, supply and S/N number) and a minimum reading time of 15 minutes is usually accepted by energy distributors, this model SENSECOM-OMN-E to be considered in common use cases.

Usually works with vast majority of power meters for measurement category C4, formerly C, usually not applicable for AMM meters category C1-C3, or for measurements category A or B, which have bulit-in wireless communication.

NB-IoT and SENSEPARAM portal flat rate options:

Choose from the suggested SENSEPARAM portal data access multi-year flat rate that best suits you:

• NB-IoT multi-year flat rate: not included in this option
• SENSEPARAM multi-year flat rate for single-user license, L1 user rights:  FREE for the duration of the NB-IoT subscription
• SENSEPARAM multi-year flat rate for multi-user license, L1-L3 user rights: 10 years, 5 years or 1 year  for the duration of the NB-IoT subscription

If you want to use other flat rate combinations, other service options/prolongations, devices from other manufacturers, you can select the standard subscription or flat rate as a separate product. You can also select the different model SENSECOM-OMN-E with subscriptions (SIM included).

You can use SENSEPARAM data access portal (SENSEPARAM multi-year flat rate) or you can do your own data deparsing and transformations directly from NB-IoT UDP packets on your server (you can use SENSEPARAM portal to permanently switch routing of UDP packets directly to your sever).

Typical use cases:

• Daily or more frequent power consumption/supply monitoring or daily profile monitoring.
• Monthly pre-payments adjustments, monthly/seasoning payments based on actual consumption.
• Leased facility/space utility consumption billing.
