Wireless Operator Interface

Honeywell announced the release of the new Limitless Wireless Operator Interface, WOI Series, which expands the company's wireless switch and receiver portfolio by providing a packaged pushbutton controller for manufacturers and OEMs. With both momentary and maintained contact options, the Limitless Series now offers wireless control from both person and position. The wireless operator interface is a controller designed to wirelessly turn on and off equipment (pumps, motors, drives, conveyors, and other industrial equipment), open or close gates/doors, or provide notification to remote locations. It can be used in rugged industrial environments to notify appropriate departments when there are quality, machine, material out-of-stock, or other manufacturing issues. Designed for flexibility, the user can choose and install a desired operator (22 mm rotary switch, key switch, key) or utilize one of Honeywell's pushbuttons. It communicates through receivers that provide PLC inputs or relay outputs connected directly to equipment to turn on LEDs or start/stop industrial equipment.
