System Components
UplinkPRO Gateway
The UplinkPRO gateway serves as a collection point for the machine data being collected by the sensors and transmitted by wireless nodes back to the control room. The UplinkPRO gateway collects the live sensor data and provides direct Ethernet/IP, Modbus TCP/IP, or Profinet connection to the PLC.
UplinkPRO Repeater
The UplinkPRO repeater works as a wireless range extender as well as a robust network redundancy for added facility protection.
Sensors and Wireless Nodes:
Temperature Sensors monitor multiple points on a machine for changes in operational temperature. These can be bearing probes, Lug style, or surface mount depending on the type of machine
Speed Sensor
Belt Misalignment Sensor
Ambient Temperature Sensor
Wireless nodes power sensors and transmit data to the control room, eliminating conduit and wires will possessing Class II Div. 1 hazardous location approvals
