Direct answer

LibertyCES has documented Pressure / Leak Monitoring RTU in Water/Aqueous service, including potable water in distribution, industrial process water and stormwater/rainfall. Documented models include Telog Ru-32imA and Ru-32mA and Telog PR-32A and PR-32iA. Compatibility depends on exact concentration, temperature and duty cycle, so confirm with a free spec review.

Materials documented for this service

  • Not a wetted-material selection — accuracy class, power source and operating temperature are the real selection axes
  • Discontinued and flagged as such by the vendor: Telog PFE-32A Pulse Frequency Event Recorder and iLR-32A Current Loop Recording Monitor

Install / Failure Note

Two Telog units on this same product line — the PFE-32A Pulse Frequency Event Recorder and the iLR-32A Current Loop Recording Monitor — are explicitly marked 'Availability: Discontinued' on the vendor's own site; treat them as reference-only in an existing installation, not as specifiable for a new one.

Every other Telog unit in this line is battery-only with a 4.5-5 year service life, fine for a remote, unmanned field deployment but wrong for a permanent treatment-plant install where the RTU needs to run indefinitely. The RS-45 is the one model in the family that supports wired power as an alternative — the real spec distinction for a fixed plant installation, not accuracy class alone — and it's why Badger Meter names it specifically for both drinking water and wastewater applications rather than distribution-network monitoring generically.

Every material and product claim on this page traces to real, vendor-published documentation on file with LibertyCES. Chemical compatibility depends on exact concentration, temperature, and duty cycle — confirm current specifications with the manufacturer and request a spec review before final specification.
