Are You Wireless?

As any plant manager will tell you, you can’t improve something

if you can’t measure it. Improved access to information provides

the opportunity to reduce operating costs while improving

quality, throughput, and availability. Add to that the expanding

requirement to certify compliance with new environmental

and safety standards. This all points to the need for increased

monitoring, yet many managers still believe that the costs

outweigh the benets.

With wired systems, that may have been the case; however,

wireless networks remove traditional barriers and redene

the cost equation. A wireless network can substantially reduce

engineering, material, and implementation costs, and those

cost savings are just the beginning.

Imagine what you can do with the additional information.

Wireless technology can reduce – if not eliminate – the “blind

spots” in your plant, while empowering mobile workers by

providing needed information. The CSI 9420 provides

predictive diagnostics for your essential production assets

from virtually any location. The result is increased process

uptime, improved consistency, and reduced risk of abnormal

situations. As more and more plants are turning to wireless

solutions, the question is “Are You Wireless?”.

A CSI 9420 is an easy addition to any existing wireless network.
