What Farmco Recommends It For:
Farmco recommends this Gallagher external antenna for farmers using the Gallagher Wireless Water Monitoring System. In particular, it suits Tank Units and Pump Controllers inside corrugated iron sheds or pump houses. As a result, you can mount it outside and get your water data flowing again.
Why It’s a Farmco Favourite:
This antenna fixes a common cause of farm dropouts, which is metal and concrete blocking the signal. Furthermore, its 360° pattern sends and receives in every direction, so there’s no aiming needed. Therefore, it’s a simple and affordable upgrade for reliable water monitoring.
Why Use a Gallagher External Antenna?
Corrugated iron, steel and concrete all block wireless signals. As a result, a Tank Unit inside a shed can struggle to reach the receiver. A Gallagher external antenna solves this because it moves the antenna outside. Your signal then has a clear path to the rest of your system. Consequently, you get fewer dropouts and more reliable tank readings.
360° Coverage for Multi Tank Setups
This 2dBi antenna sends and receives signals in every direction. As a result, you don’t need to point it at your receiver. Instead, you mount it and it works wherever your other units sit. For this reason, it suits properties with tanks, troughs and pumps spread around the homestead.
Built for Australian Farm Conditions
Gallagher designs the G98509 for permanent outdoor use. It also handles the sun, wind, dust and rain of Australian farm life. Moreover, its slim design sits neatly on most farm buildings. Finally, mount it high on a shed wall, roofline or pole for the best result.
Made for the Gallagher Water Monitoring System
This Gallagher external antenna is designed for the Gallagher Wireless Water Monitoring System, including the Gallagher Pump Controller. In addition, you can pair it with a Gallagher extension cable for extra height. Cables come in 4m (G98602) and 10m (G98603) lengths. First, measure the distance from your unit to the mounting point. Then, choose the cable length that suits.
