With the WCC10 central collector from Schneider Electric, the data from 8 wireless IAN field sensors can be collected. There are field sensors for measuring temperature, pressure and differential pressure. Communication between the field sensors and the WCC10 is via Bluetooth and can be fully configured with an app via WiFi. This makes the system very flexible and very easy to install. In addition, the battery life is much longer than with a full WirelessHART system. The data collected by the WCC10 can be linked via WirelessHART to any other WirelessHART system. The field sensors are explosion-proof according to ATEX and Canadian and American guidelines, the central collector must be placed in a safe area.
