Wireless Profibus
17 March 2008Using the RM9600 radio modem Powelectrics are pleased to be able to offer wireless profibus solutions. The system works on delicensed frequencies so it's easy to manage and the units can acheive a range up to 20 kilometres.
Wireless profibus systems make it very easy to link PLC and Instruments across a plant, or between associated sites. A good example is linking water pumping stations back to the water treatments works, or linking waste water pumping stations back to the waste water treatment plant. Wireless data communications is often alot less expensive than running cable. The solution comprises a master station and up to 8 slaves.
