Sensaphone STATIONSitter

(Ideal for monitoring pump stations and water facilities)

Sensaphone STATIONSitter provides the same 8-channel monitoring power as the Sensaphone 1800, but adds the convenience of duplex pump control logic for industrial Fill or Drain applications.

Each input channel can accept a NO/NC contact, 4-20mA , or temperature sensor. A universal output relay for local notification is also included. Configuration is quick and easy with simple voice-prompted keypad programming. The password-protected keypad also restricts local programming access.

STATIONSitter delivers alarm messages via voice phone calls, or text messages to cell phones and pagers. Up to 8 phone numbers or pagers can be contacted for alarms. Individual user acknowledgment codes track who responds to each alarm. Spoken detailed alarm history is available with just a few local keystrokes.

Call into STATIONSitter from any Touch-Tone phone to check the status of all monitored conditions, hear a spoken list of recent alarms, or to make programming changes.

The STATIONSitter comes with an internal microphone for custom voice message recording and accepts an optional external microphone for monitoring high sound alarms. The external microphone can also be used as a remote listen-in feature.

The STATIONSitter automatically monitors for power failure (requires an optional battery backup), and comes with a built-in 24 volt DC supply to power 4- 20mA loops. The STATIONSitter is designed with superior internal lightning protection. Other features include telephone Line Seizure and a panel-mount enclosure with built-in mounting tabs. An optional NEMA-4X enclosure is available.

Accessories

Accessory Wire
Product # FGD-0010
50ft. of 22-gauge shielded wire for connecting sensors to your sensaphone.
ISOTEL Surge Protector
Product # FGD-0023

External Microphone Attachment
Product # FGD-0057
Provides listen-in and/or high sound alarm capability at a remote location away from your Sensaphone. Comes with 25 feet of wire.
J Type Thermocouple/4-20mA Converter
Product # FGD-0220
The thermocouple to 4-20mA converter is useful when monitoring very high or very low temperatures that can not be monitored with a standard Sensaphone temperature sensor. Thermocouples are available in a variety of packages that may be perfectly suited to your measuring application. Each thermocouple input module provides a single channel of thermocouple input which is filtered, isolated, amplified, linearized and converted to a 4-20mA output. Isolation is provided by transformer coupling, using a proprietary technique to suppress transmission of common mode spikes or surges. The modules have excellent stability over time and do not require recalibration.
