It’s hard to read technology-based news sources without finding discussions on the Internet of Things (IoT). In looking at the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) from a process manufacturing and producing standpoint, wireless measurement devices play a big role IIoT.
I wanted to share a quick 2:12 YouTube video, Rosemount 248 Wireless Temperature Transmitter featuring Emerson’s Cheng Vue. Cheng introduces this new device which provides a cost effective solution for wireless process monitoring, based on the IEC 62591 WirelessHART communications standard.
He opens describing the 248 as a single input transmitter with an integral antenna and optional five-digit LCD display configured via a HART Field Communicator or AMS Device Manager.
He describes the housing that suitable for tough environments including offshore, salt-spray marine environments. The wireless temperature transmitter opens up many measurement opportunities that were previously difficult or impossible to reach due to location and available wiring infrastructure.
Cheng shows how field replacements can be made to the power module without removing the transmitter. For more on the specifications, here is the product data sheet and configuration data sheet. You can also contact a temperature measurement expert to discuss your application.
