FG Smart Lightning Gateway
ESX Series
Up to 128 lightning-monitoring points aggregated, unified cloud management, the data hub of an online lightning-protection platform.
Product Overview
The ESX intelligent edge computing gateway is suitable for the power, railway, petrochemical, new energy, communications, environmental protection & water conservancy, airport apron lightning rod, and power distribution & grounding system industries, providing data aggregation, protocol conversion and remote upload for various monitoring terminals. With multiple uplink/downlink communication methods, fault alarms, scheduled acquisition and other functions, it processes data efficiently and features data storage, resume-on-breakpoint and offline protection. It can also coordinate and control each terminal device per backend commands, realizing system-level automated response and building a smart lightning protection IoT network.
Core capabilities
High data processing efficiency with data storage, resume-on-breakpoint and offline protection. Downlink RS485/Zigbee and uplink Ethernet, supporting multiple communication combinations. Local indicator lights for alarm status, with local and cloud-based networked alarms. Built-in anomaly detection algorithm for millisecond-level alarm processing and prediction. Product Features
