Banner Engineering DX99 node metal housing

Monday, 17 January, 2011 | Supplied by: Micromax Pty Ltd


Banner Engineering has introduced a compact metal housing rated for Class I, Division 1 hazardous locations for its intrinsically safe DX99 wireless node product range.

A DX99 node provides power to sensors directly within a hazardous area, with an integrated battery power supply that produces an intrinsically safe power source for the radio transceiver and external third-party sensors.

Equipped with its new housing, the node is more versatile while maintaining its single chamber design - placing the battery, wiring terminal and radio together for easy mounting and connection to sensors.

Designed with industrial process applications in mind, it creates a secure and reliable wireless network - with features such as a built-in site survey tool that allows the installer to determine the quality of the wireless link and offer a combination of input options including discrete, analog, thermocouple and RTD.

The node radios transmit and receive wireless data up to 4.8 km - 150 mw with 2 dBi antenna - while consuming little power. Low-power electronics combined with sampling provide a stand-alone solution that operates for years on a single battery. Additional accessories, including flange- and pipe-mounting brackets, are also available.
