FM232e – IoT electricity consumption sensor (Local LoRa)
FM232e is an IoT sensor for monitoring the electricity consumption (electric power) of all types of buildings. It is easy to install on the existing main electricity meter. It connects locally to an F-Link micro-bridge (not included) through a specific local Lora radio protocol and sends the electricity curve at regular intervals.
IoT LoRa sensor for electricity consumption monitoring with a 1-minute or 15-minutes time step (option to be selected). The sensor consists of an optical reading head (to be installed on the existing main electricity meter) and a radio box (also including batteries).
The sensor only transmits messages to an F-Link micro-bridge (to be purchased separately). Up to 10 sensors can be registered on a single F-Link. Data is forwarded by the F-Link to Fludia data collect server where they can be retrieved through an API (or consulted and downloaded manually from the dashboard).
