AeroLink
Add a sensor anywhere in the plant, without running a wire back to the control panel.
The measurement you gave up on because the cable run cost more than the sensor is one you can have next week.
AeroLink is in preview. We are fitting it with customers who know the reading they want and have no practical way to wire it. Tell us what you need to measure and we will tell you where it stands.
Why a plant asks for it
- No cable to run
- The node goes on the machine and reaches a gateway across the site by radio. No conduit, no cable tray, and no electrician booked against a shutdown window.
- One gateway, a site of sensors
- A single gateway carries a plant’s worth of nodes. Adding a reading is a node and a pairing, so the tenth measurement costs far less to connect than the first one did.
- The sensor is your choice
- Digital or analog, the node reads it. You are not held to one vendor’s catalog, and a sensor your team already trusts keeps its place.
- Up in an afternoon
- Mount it, pair it, and the readings arrive in Process Optimization beside everything else the plant records.
How it works
A wireless node sits on the machine and reads the sensor. It reaches the gateway on LoRaWAN, a long-range radio built for sensors that run on their own battery, so one gateway covers a site and a node keeps reporting without power run out to it.
The gateway hands everything to the on-premise data hub, and the readings land in Process Optimization beside the data your control system already sends. From there a new reading behaves like every other one. It charts, it can raise an alarm, and it appears in the reports your team already gets.
Tell us what you cannot measure today
Name the reading you want and where it sits in the plant. We will tell you whether AeroLink covers it, what it takes to put one up, and when you could have it.
