OVERVIEW

The iP300-124 Optical Probe is designed for reading and programming electric power meters employing the IEC (FLAG) optical ports. This probe is specifically configured for use with the Itron G5, G5R and FC200 handheld computers. The probe obtains its power directly from the handheld computer and it is controlled by the meter reading software.

The iP300-124 Optical Probe uses advanced optical sensors to collect meter data and transmit it to the Itron hand-held computer. This allows metering data to be recorded more simply, accurately and efficiently. In addition, the iP300-124 incorporates a universal compatibility design to read virtually all utility meters, registers and recorders designed for the European Standard IEC 1107.

The iP300-124 Optical Probe solves problems relating to mechanical wear-out due to the demanding environment under which probes are constantly subjected to. We address this problem using the most rugged mechanical and electrical design in the industry. This probe is designed with an almost indestructible aluminum head that contains powerful magnets that ensure a good retention when attached to the meter’s optical port. It is also designed with a high-endurance polyurethane molded 18” long cable that withstands the outside rugged environment.   This claim is backed with an aggressive warranty and service policy.
