Banner Engineering has introduced a new way to collect analog, digital and temperature information in hazardous areas. The system is a combination of wireless communication, battery technology and intrinsically safe electronics.
The DX99 Battery-Powered Node uses a liquid lithium battery to produce an intrinsically safe power source for the transceiver and an external third-party sensor. When combined with low-power consumption sampling electronics, a standalone unit that can operate for up to 10 years on a single battery is created.
The DX99 wireless technology is a highly tuned subsystem designed with industrial process applications in mind. It was designed to be reliable, secure and provide diagnostic information about the status of the wireless link. It has also been designed to transmit and receive up to 5 km (150 mW with 2 dBi antenna) while consuming little power. Every DX99 has a built-in site survey mode that allows the installer to quickly and easily determine the quality of the wireless link.
The DX99 provides intrinsically safe power to the sensor directly within the hazardous area.
