Specification
The specs for the HTG and HFT devices are:
| Feature | HFT |
|---|---|
| Size (excluding antennas and connectors and mounting brackets) | 172 (W) x 178 (L) x 82 (H) mm |
| Weight (without battery) | 1700 g |
| Operational temperature | -10°C to 60°C |
| Operating external voltage | 10 to 24V DC max |
| Current consumption: Measurement mode From mains external power source (10-24V) * Fully charged battery / No battery connected | No sensor connected: 29 mA VEXT+ = 12V DC, no sensor connected 1 sensor connected: 87 mA 2 sensors connected: 124 mA 3 sensors connected: 165 mA 4 sensors connected: 202 mA VEXT+ = 12V DC, each sensor (4-20mA) output current 13 mA. |
| Current consumption Measurement mode From external power source * Discharged battery connected | 580 mA (for battery charging) VEXT+ = 12V DC, no sensor connected <740 mA approx (for battery charging plus sensors) VEXT+ = 12V DC, each sensor (4-20mA) output current 13 mA. |
| Current consumption TX/RX (transmit/ receive) mode From external power source * No sensor connected | Ethernet typical 700 mA VEXT+=12V DC 3G typical 800mA VEXT+=12V DC Note: Current consumption varies, strongly depends on reception conditions |
| Recommended battery | SEALED, RECHARGEABLE, LEAD ACID BATTERY ONLY. 6V nominal, 12Ah capacity |
| Estimated device life period between charging when powered from internal battery | 2 days (sampling once per hour and synchronizing once per day, 1 sensor connected only) Adjusting either the sampling or the synchronization period will have a significant impact on battery life A poor 3G/Next-G signal quality will cause the device to operate in a high power, mode for longer periods, which will significantly reduce battery life |
| External Power input | 2 pins of 3 pin connector, 10 - 24 V DC max 12V DC recommended for use in stationary location |
| Solar power input | 2 pins of 3 pin connector, 10 - 24 V DC max. 12V DC (nominal) recommended |
| Sensor input connectors | 4-20mA, 24V max, 4 connectors, each 2 pins |
| Binary output, latching relay | Open/closed relay contact. 24V DC max, 1A max |
| Binary input (optically isolated) | Input voltage = 24VDC max |
| RS485 interface DA/DB | Galvanically isolated RS-485 communication interface for external devices using HyNet protocol |
| RS485 interface PA/PB | Auxiliary RS-485 communication interface for external devices, like HyDip Pinpad |
| CIF interface | Custom RS-485/232 interface for connecting to dispensers, current loop adapters and converters |
| 3G antenna input | SMA/F connector requires SMA/M fitted antenna |
| GPS antenna | SMA/F connector requires SMA/M fitted antenna |
| USB interface | USB-B connector for connecting to PC to configure and monitor HFT device. |
