Wireless AC Current Detector for units produced count

Products
1

Hello,

My client uses an assembly line that fills bags with food. The only way we have found to count the units produced is to use the motor’s power consumption cycles.

Here is how it typically works: for 15 minutes, the sensor counts the motor’s operating cycles. Then, after 15 minutes, the sensor sends the number of cycles recorded during those 15 minutes.

This way of operating would ensure that the batteries are not drained too quickly.

Can the following sensor operate in this way?

Thank you.

Hi @bertrand.gauvreau Absolutely, this device is a perfect fit for your application. This device can transmit data at user-defined intervals, which you can set to 15 minutes. When it transmits, it will provide the following message:

"current_detect": 1, --> (A binary value, where 0 means no current is detected and 1 means there is current flowing)
"total_uptime": 256, --> (The amount of time the Current Transducer has been detecting activity since the last resets of the device (value in seconds))
"total_cycle_count": 12 --> (The number of Current detection events since the last resets of the device)

Thanks,
Eduardo M.
