PDW90 Point-To-Multi-point Wireless System

In its most basic form, the PDW90 consists of field units (up to 32) that accept 4-20 mA signals and transmits them wirelessly to a base station.

The primary advantage of this system is how simple and economical it is to get multiple signals (not just 4-20 mA, also discrete (digital) and Modbus) from where you have them to where you need them – all without having to run wires!

The wireless communication between the field units and the base station is bi-directional. That means you can send 4-20 mA, discrete and Modbus signals from the field units to the base station and also send completely different 4-20 mA, discrete and Modbus signals from the base station to the field units.

For instance, the field unit could send a 4-20 mA signal to the base station corresponding to the level in a tank and the base station could send a 4-20 mA sig-nal to the field unit to control a valve.

Field units are also equipped with four digital I/O that can each be independently programmed as an input or an output. A Loss of Signal warning is also available by connecting devices to the G and LS screw terminals.
