Applications

Irrigation rig monitoring

Monitors the current taken by motors driving large scale irrigation rigs. Used to check for overloaded motors, sometimes due to flat tyres on the wheels fitted to them.

Railway embankment monitoring

Using buried MEMs inclinometers to monitor movement in embankments.

Monitoring of CNC machine fixtures

Using wireless transmitters embedded into fixtures to monitor hydraulic clamping pressure and alarm if changes are detected.

Solar farm high terminal monitoring

Uses digital temperature ICs to check for high resistance joints in solar farm DC combiner boxes and substations.

Motor condition monitoring

Monitoring of 500+ production motors for HRJs, phase imbalance and increased load conditions.

Log loader load weighing

Uses hydraulic pressure to weigh the quantity of logs loaded onto a low loader.

Rotating oven temperature measurement

Uses wireless thermocouple transmitters to replace inherently unreliable slip rings.

Vibration monitoring

Monitors raw vibration data from industrial accelerometers in iron ore and coal mines.

Waste treatment works sludge depth monitoring

Sends the sludge depth signal wirelessly to receiver to eliminate the requirement for slip rings

Sculpture tamper monitoring

System monitors sculptures for movement & vibration to send an SMS alarm if a sculpture is being attacked or stolen.

Piling rig concrete pressure monitoring

Monitors the pressure of the concrete at swan neck at the top of the piling rig to detect when the concrete is backing up

Car all-over water spray pressure monitoring

Monitoring of motor vehicle under-body and over-body spray water pressure.

Office temperature & RH monitoring

Monitors the temperature and relative humidity in commercial offices during HVAC installation acceptance period.

Building fire temperature monitoring

1-2m long wireless thermocouple transmitters used to monitor the internal temperature of buildings used during fire testing.

Wine fermenting temperature monitoring

Used to measure the temperature of fermenting wine inside winery vats.

Wellhead pressure monitoring system

Measure well head pressure levels.

Excavation monitoring

Monitors the level and force on struts supporting large scale excavations.

Quarry water usage

Transmits water meter pulses wirelessly across a quarry to a central location.

Grain silo temperature measurement

Long temperature probes inserted into grain silos to check for rises in temperature which may indicate that fermentation is commencing.

Cement mixer weight monitor

Wireless pressure sensors mounted to the hydraulic drive circuit on cement mixers. The hydraulic pressure was used to indicate how much force was needed to rotate the drum on the vehicle, this in turn indicated how full the mixer was. Used in central filling station.

Water reservoir signal transfer

The IWT-128 was used as a cable replacement system to transfer analogue and digital signals across water reservoirs.

pH signal transfer

Picked up the output from a pH meter and wirelessly transferred this to a central dosing control system.

Multiple borehole level management

Monitored water levels in multiple boreholes so that the central controller could decide which to pump water out of.

Overhead trolley wear monitoring

Monitors the force on motor drive stations using load cells embedded into trolley blocks. If the force reduces, the rack drive starts to slip and the line may stop.

Tailgate opening system

Automatically opens the tailgate on motor vehicles on the production line, when operators require access to the rear of the vehicles.

Grain silo level measurement

Bottom mounted level sensors wired to antennas at the top of each silo. Wireless network was effectively in the air above the silos which overcame the problem of getting a wireless signal around lots of metal silos in a small area.

Product Help

Using more than one receiver with the same transmitter

Can more than one type of receiver be setup to read from the same wireless transmitter without causing any conflict, or is it that not recommended?

Yes more than one receiver can be used to receive signals from the same transmitter.

It’s not quite as robust as a single receiver in that if one receiver acknowledges the signal but that signal hasn’t got to the other, the transmitter won’t try again until the next update period (typically 10s).
