Battery-Powered LoRaWAN Sensor Power Supply and Data Acquisition Module

What Is a Battery-Powered LoRaWAN Sensor Power Supply and Data Acquisition Module?

A LoRaWAN data acquisition device designed for remote field applications where no electrical infrastructure is available, using its internal battery to power both itself and the connected sensor. At the configured measurement interval, the Infinite ADS-270 wakes from sleep mode, supplies 12 VDC or 5 VDC power to the sensor, waits for the sensor to stabilize for the configured warm-up period, acquires the measurement via Modbus RTU, SDI-12, analog or digital input, transmits the data over the LoRaWAN network, and then returns to low-power sleep mode.
