Neptune’s R450 radio frequency meter interface unit for use with Neptune’s ARB FixedBase AMI System is a high-power two-way wireless communication device designed to collect meter usage data and remotely transmit the information to tower-based collectors at predetermined intervals.

The R450 meter interface unit operates within the 450-470 MHz FCC licensed bandwith to deliver long range transmissions and ensure maximized reading success rates. The R450 MIU reads the meter at midnight and transmits the midnight reading and previous 24 hour hourly consumption data each day to assist in managing customer billing disputes as well as Non-Revenue Water and conservation initiatives.
