Intrinsically safe transceiver

Tuesday, 03 February, 2009 | Supplied by: Micromax Pty Ltd


The Banner Engineering DX99 wireless transceiver node is designed for installation in hazardous areas and combines three technologies in a single housing: battery-based power supply, wireless technology for mission critical data and intrinsically safe operation.

The liquid lithium battery is an intrinsically safe power source for the transceiver and an external third-party sensor. When combined with low-power consumption sampling electronics, the standalone unit can operate for up to 10 years on a single battery.

The wireless subsystem is designed to securely transmit and receive up to 4.8 km while consuming little power while providing diagnostic information about the status of the wireless link.

Available in a polycarbonate or metal housing, the sensor is IP67 rated and intrinsically safe, allowing it to be installed directly within a hazardous area.

The polycarbonate model works with an external battery to power RF communications and third-party 4-20 mA and Namur process sensors, with the option of an internal or external antenna. The metal model includes an internal battery to power RF communications and third-party sensors and is supplied with an external antenna.
