Lodestar CL2 BM
Lodestar CL2 BM model is an advanced solution for fault detection (PtG & PtP).
Lodestar CL2 BM is mounted on the overhead phase conductor.
Lodestar CL2 BM indicator is equipped with a short-range radio channel (BLE 2.4 GHz) and a GSM data transmission channel. Receiving information and configuring devices is carried out using a remote control: a smartphone or tablet, with installed special software Lodestar App.
With the help of Lodestar CL2 BM, SMS notification of events that have occurred with GPS coordinates can be organized. GPS coordinates are read after reboot and when commands are given from the remote control or via KOMORSAN.
Lodestar CL2 BM benefits:
- Minimum fault sensing 2 A.
- Visual indication up to 100 м (day), up to 500 м (night).
- Does not require a separate data transmission unit.
- Sending SMS and e-mail about network events to up to 5 different subscribers.
- Reduces a need for a manual fault tracking.
- Easy to install, set and use.
- Reduces localizaon and seconalizaon time.
- Reduces operating costs.
