E-CODER®
SOLID STATE ABSOLUTE ENCODER
The E-Coder® (ARB® VII) is Neptune’s next generation high-resolution solid-state absolute encoder register. The
E-Coder features a custom integrated circuit design that digitally encodes the rotation of the measuring chamber providing “absolute” registration with no internal battery requirement. The E-Coder functions in two modes: E-Coder BASIC and E-CoderPLUS. The E-CoderBASIC mode functionality is the same as ProRead (ARB VI) featuring programmability up to a 10-digit ID number, 3 user characters, and 3-6 digit meter reading. In addition to the meter reading, the E-Coder provides a visual readout on rate of flow every six seconds when the LCD display is activated. When connected to Neptune’s R900® radio MIU, the E-Coder automatically operates in E-CoderPLUS mode, providing a high resolution, 8-digit remote meter reading, and value-added features including leak detection, tamper detection, and reverse flow detection. True point-of-use leak detection is provided by monitoring a 24-hour period in 15-minute intervals.
