It supports +5 V external power with LED indication and +3.3 V low-consumption battery-powered operation with the LED disabled. ModelTP-12 Power SupplyDC 5 V / DC 3.3 V Pulse FrequencyUp to 5 kHz ProtectionIP54 Product Features Low-Power Optical Pulse Detection for Smart Metering Strong Compatibility TP-12 senses light in various colors and wavelengths, converts optical pulses into electrical pulses, and supports different power modes and connector options for project integration. Flexible Fixed Method The probe supports magnets, 3M double-sided tape and other mounting methods. Double-sided tape is widely used because it is simple to fix and protective for the meter surface. High Sensitivity With a maximum pulse frequency of 5 kHz and a minimum pulse width of 200 ms, TP-12 can detect different light colors with strong anti-interference performance indoors and outdoors. Excellent Performance in Harsh Environments PC enclosure material, optional strong magnetic fixing and long-lasting cable construction help TP-12 remain stable in demanding field conditions.

TP-12's ultra-low standby power, minimal pulse current and dual power connection options support reliable pulse acquisition while protecting battery life. Download Product Documents Download Datasheet Official Product Page FAQ Frequently Asked Questions What is TP-12 used for? TP-12 is used to detect visible and infrared LED pulses from smart meters and convert them into electrical pulses for calibration and pulse acquisition. Does TP-12 support low-power battery operation? Yes. The +3.3 V mode disables the top LED indicator and supports less than 1 uA standby consumption. How is TP-12 fixed to meters? 3M double-sided tape is standard, and magnetic or stick-on strips are available as optional fixtures. Do you offer project pricing?
