Parameter reveals the IECEx battery monitoring module, engineered for Zone 1 and Zone 2 hazardous areas.

Announcing Product Discontinuance of WiNG-MGR, WiNG-MGR-865, WiNG-MGR-868

We are in the process of discontinuing all Parameter (RLE) WiNG-MGR v1 wireless gateways (865, 868 and 900MHz).   

The WiNG-MGR-v2 wireless gateways (865, 868 and 900MHz) will continue to be offered and you should order those instead.  The v2 wireless gateways have all the features of the v1 models and are compatible with all WiNG sensors and WiNG-MGR-RXT.

The Parameter (RLE) Seahawk 10K leak detection controller is now discontinued.

Please see below the replacement options along with specs.

For distance read controllers your options are the LD1500, LD2100, and LD5200 depending on length of needed cable. If form factor is a bigger concern, we have two zone leak detection units, the LD310 and LD1000, that may be more suitable.

Regions Bank is one of the nation’s largest financial services providers of consumer and commercial banking. Serving customers in 16 states across the South, Midwest and Texas, the bank operates approximately 1,700 banking offices and 2,000 ATMs. With millions of customers relying on branch services and 24/7 access to their accounts, downtime is not an option.

Sometimes, seconds can mean the difference between running a red light and stopping with room to spare.  (And, hey, traffic violations can be pricey).

And sometimes the stakes are much higher.

Take, for instance, a water leak. Catching it early is the difference between the cost of a roll of paper towels and a massive water cleanup effort: new carpet, drywall, mold mitigation.

With the advent of AI and other high-density workloads in data centers, power density is increasing. To address this new cooling challenge, data center engineers are turning to liquid cooling. Key reasons for adopting liquid cooling include the demand for more efficient cooling and the need to reduce energy and water consumption. According to a report from insightaceanalytic.com, the liquid cooling market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 17.47% from 2024 to 2031.

When CRAA upgraded its UPS systems, Cellwatch immediately revealed a hidden battery failure—proving its value in protecting critical airport infrastructure from day one.

Operating large multi-site rail systems requires a mission critical solution where every site can be relied upon to perform at all times. With disperse locations the cost of operations is significant and unmonitored systems can hide potential problems until the moment of truth. The cost of losing power is measured in millions of Euros. As transportation services grew and IT systems expanded, data center technicians for France-based SNCF (French National Railway) realized the significance of preventing their reservations and ticketing networks from going offline. In 2000, the organization installed its first battery monitoring system to prevent an unplanned outage. After nearly five years of false alarms and struggling to manage their batteries effectively with two different battery monitoring solutions, the battery monitoring system was removed and evaluations of another system began.

It’s been almost a year since we launched our WiNG line of wireless facility monitoring products, and the market acceptance and implementation over the past 12 months has been extraordinary.  Featuring a wide variety of sensors, a web interface designed to keep the most relevant information close at hand, and open protocols for unlimited integration, WiNG has been implemented in data centers and critical facilities worldwide.  Most notably, customers who have purchased and installed WiNG are coming back to order more systems.

RLE Technologies has added a new line of panel-mount monitoring devices designed specifically for system integration. These new Building Management System (BMS) modules use protocols to communicate directly with any Modbus RTU or BACnet MS/TP system.

“When we developed the BMS products, our main goal was to make them as simple and straightforward as possible,” says RLE’s Senior Firmware Engineer Ryan Clemens. “For customers who would like to monitor legacy equipment or other equipment not designed with BMS systems in mind, we’ve designed a new line of products that easily integrate into an RS-485 based BACnet or Modbus trunk.”

RLE Technologies announces the full release of the WiNG wireless monitoring platform in both 868MHz and 900MHz frequencies.  The complete suite of WiNG wireless monitoring products is now available for installation in data centers and critical facilities worldwide.

“We’ve seen two years of solid, robust growth,” says Jeremy Swanner, President, RLE Technologies.  “We have every indication and expectation that this growth will continue.  Now is the time to ensure the right people are in the right roles at RLE.  Tim’s been a big part of this growth through the four years he’s been with RLE and his background and experience make him ideally suited for this position.”

RLE Technologies announced today that it has added a new product to their leak detection portfolio of products: low smoke zero halogen leak detection sensing cable.

RLE’s low smoke zero halogen (LSZH) cable responds to leaks in just the same way and just as quickly as the company’s orange leak detection sensing cables – water is detected and a signal is sent back to the leak detection controller, identifying the leak and sending notification to responsible parties immediately.  In addition, LSZH cable is specifically formulated to release significantly less smoke and zero halogen upon combustion. In the event of a fire the smoke released by the LSZH cable is lower in quantity, less optically dense (easier to see through), and releases fewer toxic and corrosive gases than other leak detection cables.  This makes exiting a space safer for employees and accessing the source of a fire easier for emergency personnel.  These intrinsic characteristics make RLE’s LSZH cable an excellent fit for specialty installs and applications with limited ventilation including subway tunnels, nuclear power plants, aircraft, tanks, ships and submarines, and subsea or offshore installations.

RLE Technologies announced today that it has launched an ecommerce website: buy.rletech.com.

RLE Technologies, a leading provider of water leak detection systems and web-based monitoring solutions for mission-critical facilities, today released its list of the top five threats for leaks in a mission critical facility and how to solve these issues, determined by its experts in leak detection and experience in data centers across the nation.

In an industry where just seconds of downtime represent enormous bottom line implications, leak detection and monitoring are crucial elements to consider in a highly sensitive facility. These five areas of focus are the most frequent points of failure from a fluid intrusion perspective: Faulty Mechanical Equipment: Uncapped sprinkler lines, leaky storage tanks, improperly monitored A/C units, leaking water filter units.

Structural Failures: Leaky roofs, improperly installed windows, clogged drains, overall general faulty construction.

Piping issues: Failing pipes/fittings/valves, freezing pipes, fluid hammer effect (a pressure build-up when fluids stop or change directions suddenly), faulty pipes in primary plumbing walls.

Human Related Issues: Overflowing basins, accidental damage to sprinkler lines, intentional sabotage.

Weather Related Fluid Intrusion: Minor flooding as a result of unexpected weather issues.
