The Conlab ZigSense line of wireless sensors utilises ZigBee mesh network technology as its core communications channel. Australian designed and made, ZigSense wireless nodes establish a self-healing network of spatially distributed sensors that cooperatively monitor physical and environmental conditions. Data can be transferred to standard SCADA, telemetry, PLC and HMI stations via a ZigSense communications gateway.
The nodes are designed to minimise installation costs while new or existing plants expand their operations through additional field equipment.
ZigSense flexibility, simplicity of installation and wire-free connectivity to enable efficiency, costs savings and process and energy optimisation.
The wireless nodes are built into a small robust polycarbonate IP65 enclosure. Designed for low power consumption, they utilise sleep mode to operate under battery power for a prolonged period of time. The nodes can be interfaced to multiple sensors including general IO devices and legacy serial links such as RS232 and RS485.
A communications gateway links the wireless network of sensors and standard monitoring and control systems. A ZigSense gateway uses Modbus/RTU or Modbus/TCP protocol as its default communications link.
The wireless sensors are a suitable solution for a large number of applications.
