Remote Telemetry reduces costly site visits

Telemetry is described as a highly automated communications process by which measurements are made and other data collected at remote or inaccessible points and transmitted to receiving equipment for monitoring. Telemetry is a service that runs in the background, collecting information and monitoring data that can alert us to situations or occurrences that are typically hazardous or costly. Wireless service and a wireless network can be used to receive or transmit "data bursts" remotely, this is called wireless telemetry. Telemetry is getting a stronger look these days for applications in the retail, security and utility industries.

Off Grid power for Telemetry

To power a remote site you need to know the battery size and the solar panel size.  Size the battery to run the site for 3 days without any solar charging.  Even on cloudy and stormy days there is still some charging going on.  So you are covered for several days of bad weather in a row.  First calculate the AVERAGE CURRENT draw for the site.  Most remote sites have a sleep or standby mode and come up to full power only when a reading is taken or a control is ordered.  For recording only or transmit only remote sites, the average current is usually very low (usually one milliamp or less).
