The OMEGA® HPWS Series long range wireless system allows users
to remotely monitor the status of up to four discrete switches such as
level, flow, or other contact switches up to 8 miles away.
Ideal applications for the HPWS include supervising the fluid level in
a tank, operation of a distant pump from a control station, or monitoring
the status of a pipeline. The HPWS Series is also useful for controlling
switches in hard to access locations.
One HPWS-REC receiver can monitor a total of 4 switch transmissions from 1 to 4 unique HPWS-TX transmitters.
The included 0.9 m (3') antenna provides an 8 mile, outdoor line-of-sight
range. In addition, the elevated barrier strip allows for easy wiring to
user’s switches.
The transmitter’s included backup battery ensures transmissions will
continue even when there’s a short power loss at the monitoring location. The HPWS-REC also allows for an optional battery backup, which can provide up to
24 hours of normal use during a power loss. The 12V SLA battery is designed
to recharge once AC power is restored.
The HPWS Series transmitters and receivers employ watertight cable
glands allowing the fiberglass enclosure to be rated to NEMA 4X (IP66),
ensuring continued performance when mounted outdoors.
