Dual channel volume converter

Genius 3 is an MID certified volume converter that integrates measurements with data ac- quisition and communication. It is ATEX certi- fied for use in hazardous areas.

Genius 3 has 2 MID certified PTZ EVC channels each with: 1 pulse input from the flow meter, 1 input from a pressure sensor and 1 input from a temperature sensor.
The converter is designed to be remotely con- trolled by the centralised data collection system (SCADA/SAC) using communication protocols such as MODBUS, CTR (UNI TS 11291), DLMS, Lo- RaWAN and NB-IoT.

  • Genius 3 is a battery-powered low power device that has a guaranteed autonomy of more than 5 years.
  • When real-time communication is required, the RTU can be powered by an external source in combination with the G-POWER intrinsic safety barrier (ATEX certified).
  • External power sources can be:
    • electricity network
    • AMT-AIRWATT microturbine
    • photovoltaic panel
  • Genius 3 is easy to install and connects to the operational control centre using the integrated GSM/GPRS modem or via 169/868 MHz radio frequency connections or is configured as an IoT sensor in a Cloud architecture.
  • Genius 3 operates over a wide temperature range (-25°C to +60°C).
  • Genius 3 also has digital signals for general purposes.
