New products to be presented in Amsterdam

A big topic today is e-metering, which can effectively reduce the costs associated with building management. HARDWARIO offers the CHESTER wM-Bus product, a wireless gateway designed to communicate with energy meters using the Wireless M-Bus protocol. The gateway receives signals from wM-Bus T1 and C1 meters at regular intervals, allowing it to aggregate received wM-Bus packets and transmit them over the NB-IoT/LTE-M network. In addition, CHESTER wM-Bus can detect faults such as gas leaks, backflows, or water leaks. The collected data is sent by CHESTER wM-Bus to the cloud, where the building manager can immediately use it for billing.

Another exciting feature at the HARDWARIO stand will be the miniature STICKER sensor. Two AA batteries power the STICKER and can run on them for a long time. It can collect environmental data, has a motion sensor, and has two digital inputs for 24 V industrial logic. It can connect many other external sensors.

It communicates wirelessly via LoRaWAN. It has been successfully deployed, for example, in the healthcare industry.

For simple OEM installations, HARDWARIO CHESTER-U1 is a compact module that serves as a gateway. It is easy to install and has many features and expansion options. It has an accelerometer and can send instant messages via NB-IoT/LTE-M. The module already has a Nano-SIM slot. CHESTER-U1 can also track its location using GNSS.

All the new products can be seen in person at booth number 8. If you cannot attend the fair, please make an appointment by e-mail.
