Wireless pressure monitor

    The Safe Link wireless monitor tracks pressure and clamp position on palletized fixtures, in real time, even as parts are being machined.

    The Safe Link wireless monitor tracks pressure and clamp position on palletized fixtures, in real time, even as parts are being machined. The system also verifies that a fixture is properly pressurized before machining, and it interrupts machining if pressure is lost — before expensive damage occurs. A Send unit mounts on the fixture and communicates with a 2.4-GHz radio. It is sealed to IP67 and powered by a replaceable 3.6-Vdc lithium battery. The Receive unit interfaces with the machine control though a standard 24-Vdc output, Modbus RTU RS-485, or Ethernet TCP/IP.
