Wireless products consist of a variety of self-contained and self-powered process instruments ideal for any industrial application.

Control Microsystems, global developer of advanced SCADA products, announced the release of the SCADARange product line of wireless process instruments.

Designed for use in applications where traditional wired sensor connections are not physically or financially feasible, SCADARange products are easily deployed to wirelessly transmit data through a centralized base radio station, over a secure 900MHz license-free connection. Up to 100 field devices can be polled at user-configured time intervals by a single base radio in a variety of network configurations.

Using the industry-standard Modbus protocol over a serial link, data from SCADARange can be passed through to most SCADA system elements including PLCs, RTUs, and SCADA hosts.

“The SCADARange wireless process instruments round out Control Microsystems’ product offering, providing our customers complete sensor to enterprise solutions”, said Steve Goodman, Vice President Marketing. “With the capability to scale up to as many as 16 wireless instrumentation LANs, each with 100 instruments, SCADARange easily accommodates future expansion.”

The SCADARange product line currently consists of the GL10 Gauge Level Field Unit, GP10 Gauge Pressure Field Unit, RT10 RTD Temperature Field Unit, SI10 Switch-Input Field Unit, SL10 Submersible Level Field Unit, TC10 Thermocouple Field Unit, and the BR10 Base Radio.

SCADARange Manager is a Windows-based services management software that provides a user friendly environment for field unit configuration and diagnostics. Each unit has a LCD/keypad for local configuration and monitoring.

These devices have a battery power source that lasts up to 5 years and an industry leading warranty of 3 years.

SCADARange products are available for order now.
