Rugid Computer  was founded in 1986 with a clear mission: to design and build exceptionally high-quality remote telemetry units (RTUs) for industrial sensing and control. Over four decades, the company has developed seven distinct generations of RTU models, continuously advancing our hardware to deliver reliable data acquisition, remote monitoring, and automated control across a wide range of demanding environments.


All models are designed to withstand the rigors of tough field deployments, including extreme temperature swings, electrical noise, vibration, and high humidity. Since 1986, our units have logged over 100 million operational hours in demanding field conditions around the world. Our diverse customer base includes municipal utilities, telecommunications providers, industrial firms, government agencies, and OEMs.


We strive to engineer quality hardware and pride ourselves on excellent customer service. By keeping our overhead low, we pass direct savings to our customers—and we even publish our pricing directly on our website. Please explore our site, and don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions.
