Firefly - intelligent alarm unit

Firefly – intelligent alarm unit from ACOWA INSTRUMENTS is used for applications such as wells, pumping stations as well as treatment plants.

Easy data transmission with Firefly - intelligent alarm unit

Crafted in alignment with the concept of “The local red alarm lamp has become intelligent,” FIREFLY assumes the role of a straightforward alarm device. Due to its innovative design and advanced features, FireFly offers numerous benefits that cater to a wide range of industrial applications.

To begin with, FireFly offers an unparalleled versatility in its power options as it can either be powered by a battery or a fixed 3V DC source. Also, FireFly revolutionizes the traditional alarm process by skillfully transmitting pump alarms and high-water level switch data directly to the SCADA-system via AcowaCore.

FIREFLY has both digital and analogue inputs

This unit is equipped with 2 digital inputs and 1 analogue input ranging from 0 to 10V DC. A configuration that allows precise measurements of pump current. Likewise it enables detection of crucial data such as total operating time, number of starts and as well as pump status (On or OFF) at a remarkable 5-minute resolution. All above facilitated by incorporating an external power coil.

To further enhance functionality, FIREFLY offers the option of a 5-year Sigfox subscription, coupled with the choice of batteries or power supply.
