Manual meter reading takes time, labor, and repeated field visits. Data may arrive late, schedules may be delayed, and errors can happen during manual collection. For utilities and facility managers, these problems affect billing, load planning, and customer service.
Tespro Data Transmission Unit, also known as Tespro 4G DTU, helps automate this process. It is installed beside the meter, collects data according to a fixed schedule, and sends the data through the mobile network to the cloud or head-end system.
The DTU can poll the meter, buffer the readings, transmit the data over 4G Cat-1, and report device status through heartbeat packets. This workflow helps operators know whether the device is online, whether data is transmitted correctly, and whether the site needs maintenance.
Tespro 4G DTU is designed with rail-mounted sheet-metal housing, making it suitable for substations, basements, pump rooms, meter cabinets, and other industrial or utility environments.
1.What does a Data Transmission Unit do?
A Data Transmission Unit collects meter data from the field and sends it to a cloud platform or control center through mobile communication.
2.Why use Tespro 4G DTU for meter reading?
Tespro 4G DTU reduces manual reading work, improves data timeliness, and supports remote monitoring for smart metering projects.
With Tespro Data Transmission Unit, meter reading can move from manual collection to automated data transmission, making utility operation faster and more reliable.
