Process monitoring in industry and transport
Process monitoring is important for efficient and safe operations in industry. For this purpose sensors are being designed in new measurement and control systems. However in practice additional sensors may be necessary during life time of the systems. Wired sensors require cabling with associated installation costs. Wireless sensors offer here so-called plug and play possibilities with short return on investment times.
WiSensys (www.wisensys.com) sensors transmit measurement data wireless to a central base station (receiver). This base station can be connected to existing, available equipment such as data loggers (running MODBUS protocol), a PC or through an analogue board in the base station to a PLC system. Measurement data can also be stored in a database and is easy accessible through the internet.
Examples of applications with WiSensys can be found in industries for foam production, chocolate production and in the fish industries.
