May 26, 2011– eLynx Technologies introduces i4D, a four-input discrete alarming device that uses Iridium’s global satellite network for its communication, so it can be used in even the most remote locations. The i4D antenna only has to have a view of the open sky in order to communicate status changes associated with compressors, tank levels, pumps, and any other well site equipment. Real-time alarm notifications are then transmitted to operators via text, email or voice callout. Reliability is critical with alarming devices. The i4D has two built-in features that enable operators to rely on it for their critical alarming needs.
The device will transmit a signal once a week to let you know it is functioning and the device will send its battery level every time it transmits data. The i4D is in high demand where critical alarms have to get through to the operators. Limited cellular and radio infrastructure will no longer be a problem in receiving, acknowledging, and reacting to alarms.
