Wireless monitoring system. (Instruments).Wireless monitoring technology is said to provide processors with a cost-effective, stand-alone solution for monitoring variables such as melt temperature, pressure, screw rpm and motor load from remote or hard-to-access locations. Since the system is non-invasive and requires no wire installation, permits or licenses, it can also be used for process data collection or to test the viability of a new project. The technology can be used with extrusion equipment. The system has a monitoring range of up to 3,000 feet and is equipped with a fully-integrated sensor and battery-powered field transceivers; a base radio transceiver (TRANSmitter reCEIVER) An electronic device or circuit that transmits and receives analog or digital signals. It comes in many forms; for example, a transponder on a satellite, a network adapter in the computer or the circuits in a cellphone. with RS232, RS485 (digital), Ethernet and/or 4-20 mA (analog) output; software for data management and exception reporting; and full assimilation Assimilation The absorption of stock by the public from a new issue.

Advantages are said to include low installation cost, system portability, unlimited access to processing data, multiple input capacities, a flexible base radio output, low power consumption and more.
