Patent ID: 7880333

Claim:
A method for low voltage flow control comprising: a. creating an enclosure with a body and a movable door, wherein the enclosure further comprises: i. a bulkhead disposed in the body forming a top compartment and a bottom compartment; ii. a back plane mounted to the bulkhead within the top compartment for supporting electronic equipment; and iii. at least two lifting eyes secured to the enclosure; b. disposing in the bottom compartment at least two batteries; c. installing on the back plane a wireless communication unit and connecting the wireless communication unit to the at least two batteries; d. installing a remote terminal unit on the back plane and connecting the remote terminal unit to the at least two batteries; e. installing at least one uninterruptable power supply on the back plane for providing from ten volts to thirty volts of DC power to the at least two batteries; f. installing an A/C terminal to the back plane for receiving and distributing a continuous flow of A/C current; g. installing a low voltage distribution block to the back plane and connecting the low voltage distribution block to the uninterruptable power supply; h. installing a DC-DC converter on the back plane and connecting the DC-DC converter to the low voltage distribution block; and i. using a door extension to house a remote terminal unit monitoring controller and a flow controller in communication with the A/C terminal and at least one piece of field equipment, wherein the flow controller is in communication with the remote terminal unit and the wireless communication unit to monitor and regulate flow control through the enclosure.
