Elster Gas Meter Pulse Reader

The Elster Compatible Gas Meter Pulse Reader is a wireless retrofit device developed for selected Elster gas meters. It collects gas meter signals through Hall measurement and transmits consumption data to a remote metering platform through NB-IoT or LoRaWAN communication.

This device helps gas utilities upgrade existing mechanical gas meters for remote reading, abnormal status monitoring, and AMR / AMI platform integration without replacing the original meter body. The original product information identifies the model as HAC-WRN2-E1, compatible with the same series of Elster gas meters, and supporting NB-IoT or LoRaWAN remote transmission.
