Modem range covers a range of telemetry
needs

The newly extended Telemodem2 range of industrial modems is ideal for adding reliable, remote monitoring capabilities to environmental monitoring equipment.

The newly extended Telemodem2 range of industrial modems is ideal for adding reliable, remote monitoring capabilities to environmental monitoring equipment Flexible data port and interfacing configurations enable the Telemodem2 to link up to a variety of units such as air quality analysers, emissions monitors, water quality analysers, weather stations, tidal gauges, roadside data loggers and water treatment systems

Working from a single location, users are able to save time, effort and costs by communicating directly to a network of remote monitoring equipment without having to visit each individual site station.

Conventional modems were often too power hungry, tricky to set up and limited in configuration, but Telemodem2 overcomes this through an extended choice of power options and remote diagnostics capability.

Jekyll modems are built to the very highest standards to withstand harsh, extreme environments and five models are available.

The Standard is the entry-level low-power version that connects at speeds up to 2400bit/s (V22bis).

Data ports are compatible with both logic or RS232 signal levels and the caller line identity feature permits line sharing with other telecomms equipment for reduced installation costs.

The Freedom is a zero-power version of the Standard.

This offers true remote monitoring as all power is taken direct from the telephone line, rather than mains or battery power.

This simplifies installation to legacy equipment where communications power cannot be easily provided.

The Fastlink is capable of downloading data at speeds up to 14,400bit/s (V32bis) and beyond.

This modem is particularly suited for larger data download requirements from remote sites such as industrial plants.

Crucially, it requires no more power than an ordinary low-speed modem.

The Mobile uses GSM technology for remote telemetry data access via a mobile phone.

What sets this apart from conventional GSM modems is the ability to draw power smoothly, without demanding large pulses of current, and remain in a standby state on just a few microamps.

Supply voltages can be preselected to linkup with battery powered data loggers as well as direct power supplies in distribution plants.

The Custom model means exactly that.

Customers can select various mounting and interfacing options, as well as the communications standard, mechanical configuration and power supply.

Intrinsic safety and other environmental protection requirements can be included by Jekyll according to the application. Request a free brochure from Jekyll Electronic Technology ...
