Do I need a license? What frequencies are used

• No license required. 900 MHz (North America) and the 2.4 GHz (Global) models.

How do I know my data is secure, will this interfere with any of our existing wireless networks?

• Banner’s system does not pose a security threat to any existing network.

• This protocol does not operate like an open protocol such as Wi-Fi and is not subject to the risks of an open protocol.

How far can the signal travel?

• 150 mW radios, three miles line of site.

• 1 watt radios, 6 miles line of site.

• The signal can penetrate floors, walls, and other indoor obstructions.

• The integrated site survey capability evaluates RF signal strength.

Can I install multiple networks in my facility?

• Yes, we bind the radios which is similar to “pairing” your wireless headset to your phone but is more secure.

What happens if I lose my signal?

• Our system defines how network endpoints behave during the loss of communications.

• The network identifies when the communications link is lost and sets relevant outputs to user-defined conditions.

• Once the radio signal is re-established, the network returns to normal operation.

How long will the battery last?

• It depends. Sample rate, sensor warm up time, current draw. We can test sensors.

Battery Life

If QT50 ultrasonic is sampled every 15

minutes, this FlexPowered system will

function for 5 years.

Applications: Preventive Maintenance – Continuous Monitoring


Reduce PM maintenance on bearings and

couplers; implement full time monitoring for over-

temperature and/or vibration.

•Banner Temperature Nodes will accept

thermocouple inputs directly.

•Banner I/O Nodes will accept T-Gage non-contact

sensor inputs for applications where you cannot

use a thermocouple, such as rotating shafts or

liquid temperatures.

Applications: Emergency Safety Showers/Eye Wash Stations


ANSI Z358.1 (2009) for Safety Showers and Eye Wash Stations discusses certain

compliance issues.

Applications: Environmental Water Retention


Pond 1

Pond 2

Master

Pond 3

Objective: Monitor rain water run-off levels in

ponds and/or tanks to comply with EPA and Clean

Water Act Requirements.

Solution: Banner SureCross Wireless I/O

A submersible pressure transducer is placed in

each pond and is connected to the battery-

powered wireless Node on the bank.

Benefit: Lower cost compliance with EPA and

Clean Water Act requirements.

Note: In this example of the Toyota Georgetown,

KY (TMMK) plant, the three retention ponds are

separated by up to a mile and several buildings.

This level monitoring application used MultiHop

data radios to transmit level information back to a

central control location.
