Single input remote monitoring applications
Industrial IoT Made Simple
The WTC1 series comprising of the WTC1N model and MTC1C products are compact NB-IoT devices that bring remote equipment data directly to you through modern cloud-based monitoring systems.
The WTC1 series is Ideal for: Generator monitoring, cathodic protection rectifier monitoring, RS485 bus monitoring, industrial sensor networks, and remote PLC connectivity.
Key Features
RS-485 Modbus RTU
Native Modbus RTU support with configurable baud rates (1200-230400 bps). Connect directly to PLCs, energy meters, flow sensors, and industrial controllers without protocol conversion.
NB-IoT Connectivity
Reliable cellular connectivity on Australian networks (Telstra, Optus), Our WTC1N operates on NBIoT band and MTC1C Utilises CAT1 cellular.
Analog & Digital I/O
One analog/digital input (0-10V, 0-20mA, 4-20mA) and one digital output for direct sensor connection and control. Perfect for adding simple sensors alongside Modbus devices.
IP68 Waterproof
Fully sealed outdoor-rated enclosure withstands harsh environments. Deploy in pump stations, outdoor enclosures, or underground vaults with confidence.
Industrial Power Range
12-36V DC input with 5V/200mA output for powering external sensors. Wide voltage tolerance handles noisy industrial power supplies and vehicle batteries.
