Fast detection and correction of system faults ensures that radio channels are available when first responders need them. RF power measurements at base station and combiner outputs pinpoint faulty transmitters or weather-damaged antennas. Infrastructure monitoring keeps support systems on-line.
Archer’s unique Base Station Monitoring feature lets you group forward and reflected power measurements with associated keying signals for accurate power monitoring and alarm generation. Or let Archer calculate the keying interval based on forward power thresholds.
Accurate knowledge of site conditions means you will be prepared with the right tools and equipment to restore operation quickly without costly repeat visits.

AC Current Sensor
Part #: 910-093-001
Combined Transformer and Signal Conditioner
The AC Current Sensor combines a transformer and a signal conditioner into one package. The AC Current Sensor has a selectable input range and an industry standard 0-5VDC output. The AC Current Sensor is designed for application on "linear" or sinusoidal AC loads and is housed in a solid-core case.
TEMP-INDOOR Sensor
Part #: TEMP-INDOOR
The TEMP-INDOOR Sensor is a general-purpose, digital, indoor temperature sensor tailored for monitoring ambient temperatures within a room or in an equipment rack. Temperature accuracy: ±0.5° C from -10° C to 85° C. Cables are not supplied with this sensor. Order 25’ RJ-12 cable, part number SENSOR CABLE.
For use with Climate Guard and Plus-X EM Environmental Monitors, ARC Plus systems equipped with a Plus-X EM unit, and ARC Solo systems equipped with the STM-4D Temperature Module option.
Tower Light Monitor
Part #: TLM
The TLM is a universal lamp alarm relay designed to sense the failure of flashing or steady incandescent beacon lamps or steady side lights. The toroidal current sensor provides islolation and allows monitoring of more than one line at a time. The TLM energizes when one or more lamps fail. It will monitor the operation of up to four side lights or four beacon lamps.
Line Voltage Sensor
Part #: LVS
Monitor AC Power Circuits
Each LVS monitors a single phase AC power circuit and provides a low-voltage DC output sample that tracks linearly with the AC input voltage. Additional LVS units can be added to monitor multi-phase AC power systems.
TEMP-WALLMOUNT Sensor
Part #: TEMP-WALLMOUNT
The TEMP-WALLMOUNT Sensor is housed in a 2 5/8” x 5” enclosure with air vents to facilitate sensing of the environment. Temperature accuracy: ±0.5° C from -10° C to 85° C. A 14’ cable is provided with an RJ-12 connector on one end. The TEMP-INDOOR has a large, easy to connect barrier strip that accommodates flat or Phillips type screwdrivers.
For use with Climate Guard and Plus-X EM Environmental Monitors, ARC Plus systems equipped with a Plus-X EM unit, and ARC Solo systems equipped with the STM-4D Temperature Module option.
TEMP-OUTDOOR Sensor
Part #: TEMP-OUTDOOR
The TEMP-OUTDOOR digital temperature sensor is intended for outdoor or indoor monitoring of equipment or ambient temperatures. Temperature accuracy: ±0.5° C from -10° C to 85° C. The TEMP-OUTDOOR sensor is attached to 25’ of cable with an RJ-12 connector on the end. The sensor has a mounting ring and gasket to accommodate #6 or #8 hardware. The sensing elements are sealed for added protection from dirt and moisture.
For use with Climate Guard and Plus-X EM Environmental Monitors, ARC Plus systems equipped with a Plus-X EM unit, and ARC Solo systems equipped with the STM-4D Temperature Module option.
Tower Light Monitor - LED
Part #: TLM-LED
The TLM-LED is a universal lamp alarm relay designed to sense the failure of flashing or steady LED beacon lamps or obstruction lamps. The TLM-LED energizes when one or more lamps fail. It will monitor the operation of one to eight beacon or obstruction lamps. All monitored lamps must be the same wattage and voltage. When properly integrated with ARC Plus or ARC Solo systems, it provides the remote lamp monitoring protection required by the FAA-AC No: 150/5345-43E.
When a lamp fails, the TLM-LED senses a decrease in current flow. After a 10s trip delay, the onboard LED glows and the two alarm outputs energize. The outputs and the LED are reset when the failed lamps are replaced and the unit is recalibrated. Removing the input voltage de-energizes the output and the LED‘s.
