Pulse counters product update
Pressac’s wireless pulse counters can now be used in the US and Canada.
he sensors previously only transmitted their data on the 868MHz wireless band which is standard throughout Europe, but the new version transmits on the 902MHz band more commonly used in the US and Canada.
The sensors count the number of pulses from electricity, water or general meters, as well as machinery and equipment with a pulse output. This data is then transmitted wirelessly to your local network or the cloud.
Measuring the outputs of machinery in this way can help identify areas where equipment isn’t working as well as it should be, spotting potential problems before they develop, and saving on costly repair bills.
They can also help make significant energy savings, as was recently the case at the Toyota manufacturing plant in Derbyshire, where the company used Pressac’s sensors to create an energy map of their production process to ensure it is running as efficiently as possible.
Jamie Burbidge, Product Manager for Pressac, said:
“With more and more businesses looking to make both cost and energy savings, these pulse counters are a really handy tool for the manufacturing industry, helping to monitor energy, utilities and equipment efficiency. We’re really pleased that we can now offer them to the North American market where, like the UK, government policy is increasingly focusing on emission reduction and sustainability.”

Our wireless smart repeater is a cost-effective way to increase sensors’ range, allowing them to transmit data over a larger distance or where obstructions occur.
Measure the ambient temperature in each room, cabinet or zone. The small sensors are wireless and solar-powered sensors, making them easy to install and zero maintenance.
Our three-channel temperature sensors measure temperature at up to three different points, and can be used for water, air or surface temperature measurements.
Our smart gateways receive live data from multiple sensors and securely send it to your preferred on-premise or cloud platform, via Ethernet, LTE (4G) or WiFi. Enabling you to easily integrate sensor data into your systems.
Accurately detect the presence of people sitting around a table. The small, discreet sensors simply stick to the underside of the table and send an instant update when occupancy is detected.
Detect people going in and out of a single doorway. The small sensors are mounted above a doorway and send a message wirelessly each time a person enters or exits through the doorway.
Automatically detect open doors or windows around your building, including doors on cupboards, cabinets and fridges. The small sensors are wireless and solar-powered sensors, making them easy to install and zero maintenance.
Measure the ambient temperature and relative humidity in each room, cabinet or zone. The small sensors are wireless and solar-powered sensors, making them easy to install and zero maintenance.
Measure ambient carbon dioxide (CO2), total volatile organic compounds (TVOCs), particulate matter (PM1/2.5/4/10), temperature and relative humidity, all in a single sensor.
Monitor occupancy, light, sound, temperature and humidity, all in a single sensor. Producing near real-time, highly accurate data which you can use to ensure your room conditions are at optimum levels at all times.
Measure the energy consumption in any single-phase or three-phase cable from 1-600A. Wireless and self-powered, so they’re non-intrusive and maintenance-free.
Monitor the status of any equipment that has a dry contact output, such as UPS status, security systems, fire alarms or air conditioning units. They’re wireless and self-powered, making them easy to install and maintenance-free.
Turn ‘dumb’ meters into ‘smart’ meters. Pulse counters report the number of pulses from electricity (per kWh), water (per m³), or general meters (per count), as well as machinery and equipment with a pulse output.
