•
Up to 90% lower installed costs
– Lower cost of required equipment and supplies
– Much quicker installation = less on-site time and less process disruption
Monitor and control in:
– harsh environments (lots of metal and interference)
– “wire unfriendly” situations where wires are difficult or undesirable
Monitors movable or rotating equipment
Easy optimisation of sensor position in process for a better result
Low cost and speedy retrofit to existing equipment and processes
Cost-effective diagnostics in uncertain or temporary situations
Multiple sensor types with standard wireless nodes on a single network
Remote, ‘PC-less’, monitoring from anywhere on the internet
