Honeywell Introduces XYR 3000 Wireless Multiplexers

Honeywell has introduced its new XYR 3000 wireless multiplexers, the latest additions to the company’s OneWireless portfolio. As mentioned in the official press release, the multiplexers support a wide array of legacy communication protocols such as Modbus, OPC to industrial manufacturers.

The devices can be used for various applications such as safety showers, tank level monitoring, remote pump control, video monitoring, gas detection system connection and adding off-the-shelf sensors to the field. Manufacturers can connect existing wired instrumentation for these applications to the multiplexers. The multiplexers also are capable of relaying commands from the control room to execute tasks.

“These new devices address the two main elements of process control: the ability to sense and the ability to act upon what you sensed,” said Jeff Becker, global wireless business director, Honeywell Process Solutions. “The XYR 3000 multiplexers do more than feed information into a control room; they are a cost-effective way to build a complete solution.”
