AUSTIN, TEXAS (August 20, 2008) – Emerson Process Management announces
wireless float switch solutions which combine its
Mobrey® float switches with
the company's Rosemount® 702 wireless discrete transmitter. All the
models in the popular range of Mobrey float switches are now available for use
with the wireless transmitter, allowing plant managers to cost-effectively
access valuable data about the performance and safety of their plant.
Owing to the high cost of wiring, most process plants have hundreds or even
thousands of discrete measurement points that are not connected to the control
system. The advent of wireless communications allows process plant managers to
save up to 90% of installation cost compared with wired technologies, enabling
them to collect more data at central locations than has ever been possible
before.
Mobrey magnetic float switches are unpowered and mechanical. They are used in
a wide variety of applications, particularly in chemical, petrochemical
processing and offshore installations because their simple, robust design offers
long-term reliability in the harshest of conditions. The switches are
ideal for use with high / low level alarms, pump control and other switching
duties in locations where it was previously inaccessible or simply uneconomic to
do so.
The Rosemount 702 discrete transmitter is a key component of Emerson's
self-organizing Smart Wireless field network. As with other wireless
sensors in the family, the transmitter communicates valuable discrete data to
the Smart Wireless gateway for Modbus or Ethernet connection to Emerson's AMS
Suite® predictive maintenance software, DeltaV™ and Ovation® control systems or
other any control system. The transmitter is easy to install, quick to
commission and is fully compatible with existing Smart Wireless networks.
