Pepperl+Fuchs Wireless sensor node WILSEN.valve

Industrial grade valve position feedback LoRaWAN® sensor.

About

The WILSEN.valve sensor solution monitors the position of such valves and reports the status via LoRaWAN over a distance of several kilometers. This additional information turns the WILSEN.valve into an effective M+O (Monitoring and Optimization) sensor solution that minimizes the risk of costly and time-consuming malfunctions caused by unintentionally opened or closed valves.

  • Battery operated
  • Data transfer via LoRaWAN
  • LoRaWAN downlink channel for querying and adjusting parameter values
  • Bluetooth interface for commissioning, parameterization and diagnostics
