Elara Industrial Gateway 2025 (Thin Site Solution)
A dedicated Remote Terminal Unit (RTU) designed for remote management, monitoring, and control of stationary assets using RS485 and Ethernet.
This is a cost-effective, alarms-only solution, where standard Elara capabilities were intentionally reduced to support a focused, minimal-cost use case.
The Elara Thin Site Solution retains the same digital inputs and outputs, while selected capabilities were removed, including the reduction to a single RS485 interface instead of two. These changes were made specifically to simplify the device and lower costs, without impacting its core function.
Through Elara and Galooli firmware, the unit connects to sensors and external devices via a Data Logger, collects the status of all site inputs (alarms only), and transmits this data to the Galooli platform. In this architecture, the Data Logger handles the inputs directly, and the Elara Thin Site Solution role is limited to aggregating their status and sending it to the server.
