New Class 1 Division 1 Solution for Monitoring Applications in Hazardous Locations
FreeWave Technologies, (USA), the innovator in industrial-grade secure M2M wireless networking solutions, recently announced the release of its WaveLine 10i, a Class 1 Division 1 (C1D1) certified high performance wireless I/O networking solution ideal for use in oil and gas, water/wastewater and in other industrial settings for applications in hazardous environments. After a rigorous certification process ensuring optimal performance in potentially dangerous settings, FreeWave now offers the WaveLine 10i to all new and existing customers. With a C1D1 certification, operators can achieve a safe operating environment for a variety of monitoring applications, including pressures, temperatures and liquid levels. In addition, it eliminates the need for conduit and installation outside of the C1D1 area offering easier, faster and less expensive installations.
“With a C1D1 certification, the WaveLine 10i is safe for use in hazardous environments - a very common requirement in exploration and production processes,” said Glenn Longley, product manager of I/O systems at FreeWave Technologies. “With the latest addition to FreeWave’s wireless networking solutions portfolio, customers can install our technology at hazardous locations, such as the oil tanks at production facilities or along transportation pipelines where explosive gas is normally present. The integrated rechargeable batteries, which include a solar panel and NEMA 4X enclosure, make for an easy install and hassle-free operation. The ruggedised package makes the WaveLine 10i appealing even beyond the C1D1 applications and into industries and locations that do not require such stringent certifications. The WaveLine 10i is backwards compatible with existing FreeWave communication networks on short or long distance communication links.”
The WaveLine 10i is the latest addition to FreeWave’s I/O family of networking solutions designed for remote process automation, process optimisation and condition-based monitoring. FreeWave’s wireless I/O solutions combine remote measurement, remote control and real-time data communications with the industry’s most reliable and secure wireless networks. By integrating wireless I/O into small field networks, medium plant operations and/or large SCADA systems, operators can receive wireless sensor measurements, physical control and communications between remote controllers from a single device. The WaveLine 10i can pair with a variety of sensors, providing the ultimate flexibility in allowing customers to choose the best sensor and wireless communication offering as opposed to purchasing a packaged solution that often provides subpar sensor and wireless performance. It also offers an integrated solar power system that eliminates regular trips to remote locations for battery replacement. Operators can leverage the WaveLine’s versatility for any number of applications that require the monitoring of analogue values. An ideal example is pressure monitoring at wellheads or along pipelines. It is available with two analogue inputs, including sensor power, two selectable digital I/O channels and an integrated 1watt900 MHz FreeWave communications solution.
Additional key features of the WaveLine 10i include: LCD Display; Keypad configuration; Nema 4X enclosure.
“Organisations today require dependable wireless networking solutions that are both secure and versatile in nature,” said Ashish Sharma, chief marketing officer at FreeWave Technologies. “Offering a C1D1 solution allows existing FreeWave customers to expand their wireless communication capabilities into hazardous environments and provides more options for new customers’ I/O packages.”

For More Info, email: TOC Analyser for High TOC Samples
GE Analytical Instruments' (USA), a division of GE Water & Process Technologies, Sievers InnovOx Laboratory and On-Line Total Organic Carbon (TOC) Analysers are designed to run diverse, high-TOC samples with unprecedented uptime. The Sievers InnovOx offers unmatched oxidation robustness, dynamic linear working range, and calibration curve stability for industrial process and environmental water samples.
The tough, reliable InnovOx Analyser uses a patented Super Critical Water Oxidation (SCWO) technique to achieve superior TOC recoveries regardless of organic compounds and particulate impurities in the sample. In addition, this new process removes all oxidation byproducts and sample between each analytical run, eliminating the need for frequent maintenance.
The Sievers InnovOx optimises sample representation and measurement through its unique sample handling/sparging module that thoroughly homogenizes a large sample volume. The enhanced Non Dispersive Infra Red (NDIR) design has a dynamic detection range of 0.5 to 50,000 ppm, and is capable of measuring Total Carbon (TC), Total Inorganic Carbon (TIC), Total Organic Carbon (TOC), and Non-Purgeable Organic Carbon (NPOC). Options include integration with the proven GE Autosampler.

Ultra Fast Acquisition of Dynamic Thermal Events
FLIR Systems (France) has launched its new X6580sc thermal imaging camera as a solution for researchers and scientists that require ultra-fast frame rate acquisition of extremely dynamic thermal events.
The versatile FLIR X6580sc camera uniquely ombines high speed and high resolution with ease of use and the flexibility to be configured for just about any scientific or research application.
The X6580sc features a high-speed 640x512 digital InSb detector with broadband (1.5-5.5µm) spectral sensitivity and F/3 aperture. The X6580sc provides images up to 350Hz in full frame and up to 4500 Hz in a 320x8 sub-windowing mode.
The X6580sc includes all the high performance features of the FLIR X6500sc series, such as high thermal sensitivity, snapshot imagery, motorised spectral filter wheel and a detachable touchscreen LCD. The camera connects to FLIR's ResearchIR Max 3 R&D software to provide the ultimate in for thermal imaging data acquisition, analysis, and reporting capabilities.
The camera can be temperature calibrated up to 300°C, or up to 3000°C with spectral and/or neutral density filters. Measurement accuracy of +/-1°C for standard configurations ensures top quality results.
The X6580sc is compatible with all the existing FLIR X6500sc mid-infrared USL motorised lenses. Optionally, the camera can be equipped with an M80/Janos front panel enabling integration with your existing or custom lenses.
According to Nigel Peart, FLIR Sales Manager (Northern Europe) for R&D / Science products, “The X6580sc sets a new benchmark for researchers involved with high-speed R&D/Science applications such as material impact shock testing and fast thermal events like exothermal chemical reactions as well as Infrared Signature (Range Test Lab) applications."
