STR-100 Satellite Time Reference

The STR-100 Satellite Time Reference (STR) is a microprocessor-based device that accepts GPS time signals from a smart antenna or receiver and outputs a time synchronization signal to power system devices for sequence of events recording (SER) applications. The GPS time source may be a Trimble AcutimeTM Gold GPS “smart antenna” or an amplitude-modulated IRIG-B signal. The STR converts this time data to a DCF77 or 1per10 protocol signal to provide time synchronization for up to 32 devices, including PowerLogic meters and Sepam relays by Schneider Electric.

Product highlights include:


Accurate time synchronization.  Output time signal within 100 microseconds accuracy.

Open solution.  Modulated IRIG-B is widely used in electric utility, industrial, healthcare and data center applications for sequence of events recording.

Simple installation. Supports DIN-rail or panel mounting.  GPS antenna interface takes advantage of low-cost RS-422 cabling.

Global standards compliance. UL-listed (UL-508), cUL, CE and FCC class-A compliant.
