Products Calibration Equipment Calibration Services ippt Plant Safety Wireless CommunicationsOleumTech has announced the release of two new products for the OTC wireless sensor and I/O network: tilt and vibration transmitters.
Both devices are designed to monitor equipment health, maximize uptime and prevent mechanical failures before they occur. The self-contained, battery-powered transmitters will provide around-the-clock monitoring for detecting possible equipment anomalies and driving predictive maintenance programs. The tilt transmitter features an embedded inclinometer while the vibration transmitter provides an external accelerometer that is mated to the transmitter via a keyed connection.
Both devices are intrinsically safe and certified for use in Class I, Division 1 hazardous locations.
“Our OTC platform is used in applications that can withstand the harshest conditions imaginable while exceeding the highest level of safety requirements. We are excited to add these two new products to our growing portfolio of industrially hardened wireless transmitters. For existing OTC users, these transmitters can seamlessly be integrated into their wireless sensor networks with a simple BreeZ configuration software upgrade,” said Vrej Isa, COO of OleumTech.
