Description

Description In a matter of minutes field technicians can easily and permanently equip a cathodic protection rectifier with the advanced Mobiltex uGI1-S interrupter and upgrade the unit with remote monitoring and control for survey activities. This small, high-performance device combines GPS location with two-way satellite communication to provide precise synchronization, timing accuracy and repeatability for rectifier interruption. The addition of an optional Mobiltex Smart Relay cost-effectively expands the capabilities of the uGI1-S to include continuous monitoring of AC and/or DC load current, synchronization status, relay temperature and other important data that is logged by the interrupter. Key Benefits Two-way satellite transceiver enables remote control via CorView portal for interruption parameters and operation Remote alarm reporting of fault conditions to enable rapid response Precise timing and event data logging – includes geolocation, interruption activities, interruption faults (fault and load current logging available with optional smart relay) User configurable interruption profiles can be set via Bluetooth connection with Apple or Android app Compact, weather-proof enclosure with magnetic mounting feet can be installed in minutes Lightning, surge and overvoltage protection and broad operating temperature range (-30°F to +158°F) Ordering Information A20A03UGI01 Micro GPS interrupter kit - no relay.
