Multi-Point Wireless I/O
Product # FGD-0205
The multi-point wireless I/O system is ideal if you need to connect one or two dry contacts and/or a 4-20mA transducer to a Sensaphone that is too far (or too expensive) to run cable. The system will replicate these sensors up to a distance of 600′ indoors or up to 4 miles line of site (flat terrain, raised antennas). The system includes a matched 1 Watt 900MHz transmitter and receiver. Two 24V power supplies and omnidirectional antennas are included. Built-in leds indicate RF link and dry contact status.
J Type Thermocouple/4-20mA Converter
Product # FGD-0220
The thermocouple to 4-20mA converter is useful when monitoring very high or very low temperatures that can not be monitored with a standard Sensaphone temperature sensor. Thermocouples are available in a variety of packages that may be perfectly suited to your measuring application. Each thermocouple input module provides a single channel of thermocouple input which is filtered, isolated, amplified, linearized and converted to a 4-20mA output. Isolation is provided by transformer coupling, using a proprietary technique to suppress transmission of common mode spikes or surges. The modules have excellent stability over time and do not require recalibration.
Bluetooth Cell Phone Interface
Product # FGD-0230
The XLink allows your Sensaphone to dial and receive calls using any cell phone with Bluetooth technology. For example, suppose land-line telephone service was unavailable at the Sensaphone's location. By using the XLink you can provide telephone service to your Sensaphone by locating a cell phone next to the device. The XLink will send all incoming calls to the Sensaphone and when the Sensaphone needs to dial out the call will be seamlessly completed through the cell phone. The XLink is a wireless (Bluetooth) link between your Sensaphone and a cellular phone. This can be a cost-effective option considering that many cellular providers offer inexpensive options to add another phone. Perfect for access where a land line simply isn't available, the XLink is a must.
