High-Speed Water & Gas Meter Relay

RTR-22+

The SSI RTR-22+ High-Speed Pulse Isolation Relay is designed to interface two independent pulse channels from water or gas meters to other systems simultaneously. Each of the two channels has its own Form A (2-wire) input and a corresponding isolated solid-state dry-contact Form A (KY) output, operating completely independently of the other channel. Most water and gas meter pulse outputs — open-collector transistors, open-drain FETs, MOSFET solid-state relays, reed switches, and dry-contact relays — are directly compatible with the RTR-22+’s inputs.

Four input filter times are field-selectable per channel: 50 microseconds, 0.5mS, 5mS, or 20mS. The microcontroller validates each incoming pulse against the selected filter time — any pulse shorter than the threshold is assumed to be noise and rejected — providing reliable operation in demanding field environments. When an RTR-22+ is inserted between meter and remote equipment, it simultaneously provides a replicated isolated signal to the remote equipment and a separate isolated contact for customer-owned monitoring.

Product Highlights

The RTR-22+ supports two output operating modes. In Normal mode, each channel’s output mirrors the input pulse timing as closely as possible. In Fixed mode, each channel independently generates a selectable output closure time of 50, 100, 200, or 500mS regardless of input pulse width — enabling pulse stretching or shortening to match downstream equipment requirements.

If input pulses exceed the output rate, the microcontroller queues up to 255 pulses per channel and delivers them in a 50/50 duty cycle, with a red overflow LED indicating if the buffer is exceeded.

Euro-type terminal connectors prevent exposed conductors, and the relay mounts in any position inside a suitable electrical enclosure.

Features

The SSI RTR-22+ is a dual-channel high-speed relay for water and gas meters with two independent Form A input/output channels, selectable filter times, and fixed or normal output modes.
  • Two independent high-speed channels — each channel has its own Form A input and isolated Form A output, operating independently.
  • 4 selectable input filter times — 50µs, 0.5mS, 5mS, or 20mS per channel; rejects noise while accepting valid pulses.
  • Normal and Fixed output modes — Normal mirrors input timing; Fixed generates 50, 100, 200, or 500mS output closures per channel.
  • 255-pulse output buffer per channel — stores excess pulses during high-rate bursts; delivers in 50/50 duty cycle to prevent pulse loss.
  • Compatible with all common pulse initiator types — open-collector transistor, open-drain FET, MOSFET relay, reed switch, and dry-contact relay inputs all supported.
  • Red overflow LED — lights when the 255-pulse buffer is exceeded, providing immediate visual indication of an overflow condition.
  • Euro-type terminal connectors — no exposed conductors when wired; mounts in any position inside a suitable enclosure.
