Manufacturer profiles associated with Optical Port (IR).
Manufacturer listings support early research and capability understanding. They are not certification, ranking, or transaction guarantees.
A practical evidence checklist for RFQ preparation and supplier evaluation.
CNFX does not score or rank suppliers. Buyers must verify all claims and documents with the legal manufacturer before ordering.
The typical transmission distance is up to 4 meters, as listed in the reference parameters. However, actual distance may vary depending on environmental conditions and the specific meter design. Always verify with the manufacturer for the exact model.
The optical port parameters reference IEC 62056-21 for communication characteristics, IEC 62052-31 for temperature ranges, IEC 60068-2-78 for humidity, and IEC 60529 for ingress protection. These standards are procurement references; compliance must be confirmed with the supplier.
Yes, the optical port is designed for data transmission and configuration. It allows meter reading, configuration updates, diagnostics, and data retrieval without physical electrical connections. However, the specific capabilities depend on the meter's firmware and software.
The reference operating temperature is -25°C to 55°C, storage temperature -40°C to 70°C, and relative humidity up to 95% non-condensing. Ingress protection is typically IP54 to IP65, depending on the meter enclosure. Always check the manufacturer's specifications for the actual model.
