Application
Temperature monitoring in a dryer
- Temperature monitoring at various drying stages
- Distance from the first measurement point to the control room is approx. 130 meters.
- Switchover of existing temperature monitoring system from off-line to on-line.
Challenges
- Manual temperature reading requires walking about 130 m and climbing up and down elevated sections of the dryer stages.
- Multiple temperature measurement points along the various stages of the dryer require many cables to the control room.
- Very high humidity.
Solutions
- Wireless temperature measurement
Gateway x1, Transmitter (YTA) x2 at measuring points near the dryer entry point, repeater x2 (for redundancy). - High quality wireless communication was confirmed.
The PER (packet error rate) was 0%.
Benefits
- Reduced maintenance costs.
- Robust communication with lower packet error rates.
