Bourdon tube pressure gauge with wireless transmission
Description
The IIoT-capable model PGW2x.100 pressure gauge finds its use wherever the process pressure has to be indicated on-site and, at the same time, centralised, web-based remote monitoring is required.
The model PGW2x.100 is based on a fully welded and robust Bourdon tube measuring system. It therefore combines the mechanical measuring system with electronic signal processing.
Battery-operated wireless transmission via LoRaWAN ® ('Long Range Wide Area Network') is based on LPWAN technology ('Low Power Wide Area Network') to enable high transmission ranges and long battery life.
IIoT-capable Bourdon tube pressure gauge, model PGW23.100
The model PGW2x.100 pressure gauge fulfils safety-related requirements of the relevant standards and regulations for the on-site indication of the operating pressure of pressure vessels, as well as the requirements of the Radio Equipment Directive for data communication. In particular, the LoRaWAN ® network enables the complete end-to-end encryption with bidirectional communication for safe IIoT applications.
The model PGU2x.100 is based upon a model 2xx.30 high-quality pressure gauge with a nominal size of 100, which corresponds to the S3 safety version of the EN 837-1.
