RM4010, RM4014, RM4011, RM4015, RM4013, RM4016,
and RM4020 Unit Overview
The RM4010, RM4014, RM4011, RM4015, RM4013, RM4016, and RM4020 units monitor oil and gas
assets in cathodic protection (CP) applications. The RM4010 and RM4014 measure the output of
rectifier current across shunt resistors. The RM4014, RM4015, and RM4016 are identical to the
RM4010, RM4011, and RM4013, respectively, except for the use of the SkyWave IDP-680 satellite
terminal, which is replacing the DMR-800 series terminals.
Remote monitoring units use satellite networks for communication with Bullhorn Web. RM4010,
RM4014, RM4011, RM4015, RM4013, and RM4016 (with the capability of two-way communication)
use the SkyWave-Inmarsat satellite network; RM4020 uses the ORBCOMM satellite network. Units
transmit channel measurements and alarms to your website account.
NOTE: Satellite coverage maps are available through the carrier websites, such as ORBCOMM
Satellite.
These units provide built-in surge protection, rectifier interface, and test point filtering functionality.
Additionally the RM4010, RM4014, RM4011, and RM4015 also support GPS synchronized current
interruption, either factory-installed or field-upgraded. These units support six (6) configurable
inputs with the following specifications:
