The OmniMetrix Pipe-to-Soil
Monitor (PSM) is a self-contained wireless remote monitoring
unit for pipe-to-soil and potential to structure CP test station
measurements. The PSM monitors the reference electrode output,
giving scheduled data reports and alarm notification in the event of
extreme CP readings.
The PSM features wide-area
connectivity via digital radio, transmitting data wirelessly to
the OmniMetrix secure website. No custom software is required; all
you need is a PC with Internet Explorer. The monitor compares its
input measurements to preset alarm levels, and can deliver alarms
upon detection of our-of-bounds conditions. Alarm levels and
reporting intervals are remotely programmable.
OmniUpdate™ is an OmniMetrix
exclusive that performs remote updates. No need for field laptops -
the PSM's firmware is automatically updated over the life of the
monitor.
The PSM may be direct-buried in
the soil, with only a 5” dome visible above the soil. It is also
available in polemount or test-station cap versions. Enclosures are
by Cott Manufacturing. Power is provided by a 10-year Lithium
battery.
An integral Tamper detection
function automatically and instantaneously awakens the unit and
cause a Tamper Alarm transmission. This function is utilized for
security against unauthorized intrusion of the monitor.
Farwest also offers a complete PSM
kit, which includes a riser clamp and a
GMC bagged reference cell.
