Increased Signal Range

The TR4 now has a transmission range of 4.5 miles! This is the longest range available for such a device. This can eliminate the need for a repeater in many instances. A savings of $350 per repeater eliminated.


Extended Battery Life

The field replaceable CR18505 battery now lasts up to 10 years!
Easy to replace with the 2-pin plug connected to the battery.

Hinged Cover

The cover on the TR201 completely detaches from the transceiver. This made it easy to lose or drop into a location where it is hard to reach during installation or battery change. The new TR4 transceiver keeps the cover attached with a hinge. A simple fix for a common problem.


Accepts and Transmits Signals from More Types of Water Meter Registers

The TR4 now accepts signals from encoded registers in addition to simple pulse registers. Now the transceivers can be used on a much larger range of water meters. The Neptune ProCoder T10 can now can be used with the TR4 and the Next Century Wireless water metering system. Many other popular meters can also be used.
