Accutech AP10

Wireless absolute pressure field unit

The Accutech AP10 wireless absolute pressure field unit provides pressure data in a variety of ranges from 30 to 250PSIA. With its integrated and highly sensitive sensor design, the product may be configured to sample and transmit updates between once per second and once per minute. Transmit rate changes can also be triggered based on events that are defined in terms of measurement limits or rates of movement. This function allows for maximisation of battery life while ensuring that all important process events are monitored. All Accutech field units automatically report field data to a centralised Accutech base radio over distances of up to 3000ft (~1000m). Each field unit is self contained, featuring an integrated 900MHz or 869MHz (license-free band), frequency hopping, spread-spectrum transceiver and antenna, and longlasting battery that offers 3+ years of maintenance-free service (up to 10 years depending on data rates and battery options). Accutech networks are highly scalable with the possibility of 100 field units per base radio and 256 base radios per installation. Accutech field units are housed within a compact and weather-proof NEMA 4 enclosure with options for a remote sensor and remote antenna on select models. Field units are available in a wide range of certifications and are protected by an industry-leading 3-Year warranty (parts and labor).
