MONNIT Industrial 0-20 mA Wireless Current Meter Sensor
MONNIT Industrial 0-20 mA Wireless Current Meter Sensor is an industrial wireless interface meter designed to measure a 0-20 mA current signal from compatible equipment or sensors. It allows existing process signals to be incorporated into a wireless monitoring system without replacing the original device. Suitable for industrial monitoring applications, it can be used with current transducers and other equipment that provides a compatible 0-20 mA output. The industrial enclosure format is suited to installations where a more robust sensor housing is preferred.
The MONNIT Industrial 0-20 mA Wireless Current Meter Sensor is designed for monitoring analogue current signals from compatible industrial equipment. Many process instruments and transducers use current outputs to represent a measured condition, and this wireless interface meter provides a way to collect that signal for remote monitoring.
According to Monnit's product information, the 0-20 mA current meter family can be used to remotely measure the current output from another device or sensor. Monnit specifically identifies applications involving current transducers and sensors such as oxygen, pH and magnetic flow sensors.
The IN designation identifies the industrial enclosure, while the 4 in the supplied part number identifies the 433 MHz frequency version. As an ALTA Generation 2 device, the sensor uses Monnit's second-generation radio technology.
How it works
- Connects to a compatible device or sensor providing a 0-20 mA output.
- Measures the current signal received from that device.
- Transmits the monitored data using the specified 433 MHz ALTA wireless configuration.
- Allows existing analogue-output equipment to be incorporated into a remote monitoring system.
Why choose this product
- Suitable for adding wireless monitoring to equipment with a compatible 0-20 mA signal.
- Uses an industrial enclosure configuration identified by Monnit as IN.
