Battery-Free Limit Switches
Telemecanique's XCMW series limit switches include transmitters and receivers that communicate using 2.4 GHz radio transmission. The transmitter is self-powered, meaning no batteries are needed. The limit switch is equipped with a “dynamo” generator that converts mechanical energy into electrical energy. This energy is sufficient to send a coded radio message (2.4 GHz ZigBee protocol) in pulses to one or more receivers located several dozen meters away. Each transmitter has a unique identification code, and before operation, it must be paired with the desired receiver by performing a simple training procedure using two buttons on the front panel of the receiver.
Benefits of Using Wireless and Battery-Free Limit Switches
Simplified Installation and Maintenance
- No cables are required, meaning there are no cable installation costs during setup.
- No internal contacts, significantly reducing maintenance costs.
Long-Distance Transmission
- 100 m wireless range.
- The range can be extended up to 300 m with an additional antenna.
Energy-Efficient and Environmentally Friendly Solution
- Self-sufficient energy source, so there is no need for battery replacement or recycling.
- Wireless communication eliminates the use of cables, reducing material consumption.
Multi-Sensor Wireless Transmission
Telemecanique's XZBW series wireless transmitters and receivers are designed for use with a wide range of sensors. The XZBW series transmitter is compatible with all PNP, NPN sensors, and mechanical limit switches. It is equipped with a standard M12 connector input, which provides power to the connected sensor or switch from a 24 Vdc network. The XZBW series wireless transmitters and receivers communicate using 2.4 GHz ZigBee radio transmission. Each transmitter has a unique identification code, allowing for optimal management of each device. Before operation, each transmitter must be paired with the desired receiver by performing a simple training procedure using two buttons on the front panel of the receiver.
Benefits and Functionality of Using Wireless Sensor Transmitters
“Less Wiring” Application
- This solution reduces the number of cables and simplifies installation, lowering setup costs.
Functionality
- The transmitters feature a standardized M12 connector input.
- Ability to connect various types of sensors.
- Two transmitters can be connected to one receiver.
Reliable Real-Time Wireless Connection
- Free-field radio range up to 100 m.
- Typical industrial environment radio range up to 25 m.
