RFG-201

Eaton's RFG-201 smart gas node is a two-way advanced metering (AMI) node that utilizes a pulse-based interface to integrate to rotary meters and volume correctors. The RFG-201 also works in conjunction with the RIOTronics modules in order to seamlessly integrate to popular diaphragm meters, such as those from Itron/Actaris, Honeywell/Elster/AMCO and Sensus/Rockwell/Equimeter.

RFG-301

Eaton’s RFG-301 smart gas node is a next-generation, two-way advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) node that wirelessly interfaces with Eaton’s RF Mesh network. Compatible with the Honeywell American (RFG-301A) and Sensus Rockwell (RFG-301R) residential gas meters, the gas node enables utilities to remotely collect usage and interval data (at remotely configurable intervals) for more accurate and punctual billing and collections. 

Flexible solution

Providing consistent functionality across all major meter brands, Eaton’s natural gas nodes provide utilities ultimate flexibility, supporting popular diaphragm and rotary meters to meet utilities’ needs. The solution also supports metered propane applications. As with other battery-powered nodes within the Eaton network, the nodes can facilitate communications connectivity via any powered node in its vicinity via the intelligent network routing employed by the system. The Eaton Smart Grid network supports electric, water and gas AMI applications as well as demand response and distribution automation.

Straightforward implementation

The solution leverages Eaton’s proven radio design to ensure outstanding communication range while providing for long battery life. Both node types were designed for streamlined, effective field installation while being resistant to tampering. Integrated nodes come in multiple styles, based on meter family, and install between the existing meter index and the meter. The pulse-based nodes connect to pulse outputs on a variety of rotary style meters and volume correctors and are constructed to support a variety of mounting options. This end-to-end solution utilizes the Eaton self-forming, self-optimizing, self-healing network, streamlining operations for utilities with natural gas or metered propane services. The low maintenance hardware is designed to provide readings, interval data, and alarm and event data, including tamper conditions, for the long haul.
