Industrial Network Wireless Receiver

June 30, 2011
New Limitless WDRR (wireless din-rail receiver) receives wireless signals from up to 14 different position-sensing switches and communicates individual switch statuses to a programmable logic controller (PLC) or any controller capable of receiving NPN/PNP inputs.
Applications include industrial machines, construction, material handling, heavy transportation, agricultural equipment and more. The WDRR is a din-rail or panel-mountable receiver designed to save up to 60 percent compared to traditional wired switching by reducing installation time, conduit, wire, clips and other accessories. It enables sensing capabilities where it is impossible or very difficult to run cabling. The Limitless wireless network includes WDRR and WPMM receivers, WLS and WGLA limit switches. It utilizes the global, license-free radio frequency wireless 802.15.4 WPAN protocol and provides up to a 305 m (1,000 ft) line-of-sight communication range.Honeywell Sensing and Control sensing.honeywell.com 800.537.6945
