Description

ELPRO’s Industrial Wireless Solutions has 30 years of skill in
solving critical industrial communications in flood warning applications.
The ERT-A2 is a new generation ground up redesigned
product that extends on the successful ERRTS™ product line.

Designed to meet local conditions the ERT-A2 provides a single
product to support remote stations, repeater and base receiver
applications. It supports a large variety of environmental sensors. This includes, critically, rainfall and river height gauging data collection. These are essential to support environmental and flood warning SCADA applications.

The ELPRO ERT-A2 remote station-repeater is a single unit. It provides flexibility in mounting, sensors, and power sources. This flexibility supports installations in sometimes very remote or city-based situations. These installations can be in a traditional tree, platform, or cabinet.
