Comtac Cluey MB NBM - NB-IoT/LTE-M Monitor & Controller
IP65, 4 - 8 x AI/DI/Pulse, <4 x DO, Modbus, Battery or mains powered
The Cluey is a smart controller designed for monitoring and control tasks in electricity, water or other infrastructure networks. Built in a robust housing with IP65 protection and designed to suit a wide range of use cases and applications. Based on a LoRaWAN design, this NB-IoT Controller is extremely power efficient and is especially suitable for applications based on battery or alternative power sources.
Select a configuration that suits your application, wire the device accordingly and set your individual parameters. With the controller and monitoring intelligence already present in the Cluey, there is no need for complex programming.
Cluey MB NBM supports 8 configurable ports, each of which can function as either a Digital Input, Counter Input or Analoge Input. Additionally, 4 of the ports can be confiured for digital output. In addition it has a RS485 with modbus RTU capability.
Each analogue value can be monitored to its limit. Circuit break
and faulty status of the analogue values are signalled, digital
inputs or limit value statuses can directly control outputs locally, without the intervention of superior technology. Event driven (change of input status/ limit value violation) and dynamic (delta event) data transmission with time stamps.
Save battery by only transmitting when necessary; the Cluey uses clever signal processing allowing for threshold monitoring and other logical operations to support event driven and efficient radio transmission. This reduces uneccessary transmissions to a minimum for increased operational lifetime.
For added flexibility the Cluey can be either battery powered, with a lifetime of up to 10+ years, or powered by 24VDC for continous operation. If normally powered by mains, the battery is used for backup in the even of power failure.
NB-IoT / LTE-M support brings flexibility for applications, NB-IoT is best suited for reporting applications where power consumption is of highest priority. LTE-M will be more suitable if downlink and frequent report intervals is necessary.
