The GSM alarm module is a compact, distributed control and signaling system. With the GSM alarm module, it is possible to monitor and control, for example, heating, air-conditioning and cooling systems, elevators and escalators, and all kinds of production equipment such as machinery, automated devices and conveyor belts in industrial and private building management. Additionally, the GSM alarm module is particularly suitable for remote plants, such as monitoring the heating of summer houses or the pumps of a water treatment plant. In combination with voltage relays, current relays, fuse monitors, miniature circuit breakers, residual current devices, or surge arresters fitted with auxiliary current switches or signaling contacts, there are virtually no limits to the type of monitoring tasks that can be carried out.

Changes to the 8 multi-functional inputs (digital: 24 V DC / analog: 0 … 10 V AC) can be signaled both via SMS and via e-mail. The 4 digital outputs can be activated via SMS. It is also possible to link the first 4 digital inputs to the 4 outputs. The GSM alarm module can be easily parameterized using the accompanying configuration software, which has a simple and clear structure. Parameters can also be assigned online (OTA = Over The Air) after the initial installation. The firmware can also be updated via the Internet.

The exportability of log files for the inputs/outputs enables the user to obtain an overview and, if applicable, configure the processes to be better and more efficient. In the event of a power failure, the integrated maintenance-free SuperCap capacitor ensures that an error message is still sent to the pre-defined recipients via SMS.

Note:

Because the availability of mobile networks cannot be guaranteed, GSM alarm modules should not be used for safety-relevant control functions.
