TLV iT5-IS-RUN Wireless Repeater for iTrapSensor Monitoring System

TLV iT5-IS-RUN battery-powered wireless repeater for the iTrapSensor monitoring system. Features 2.4 GHz ISA 100.11a communication, up to 400 m range, and ATEX intrinsically safe construction.

TLV iT5-IS-RUN Wireless Repeater for iTrapSensor Monitoring System

The TLV iT5-IS-RUN is a repeater for iTrapSensor wireless monitoring sensors based on the ISA 100.11a specification. It relays data between monitoring sensors and the access point, extending the overall communication distance of the system.

Features

The repeater provides reliable wireless data transmission and includes the following features:

  • Enables high frequency monitoring with communication cycles configurable between 1 second and 1 hour.
  • Offers a line-of-sight communication distance of 400 m between the repeater and sensors or other repeaters.
  • Powered by a long-life battery pack that can be replaced in hazardous locations.
  • Intrinsically safe construction suitable for use in both hazardous and non-hazardous locations.
  • Available with an optional extended antenna type for remote antenna mounting.
